Roy brought up a valid question and thought we should make sure we get this out.

ONLY ROAR approved LIPO packs allowed in the shop.. Absolutly no soft packs in cars.

Also you need to charge in a Lipo Sack.

Legends. 3.7v 17.5bl or 27t. (lipo or nimmh). Bushings cars.

MMR slash spec with optional 1/8 late model body

limited late model(current rule package teas is running)

pan car 21.5 bl spec 7.4lipo/ single cell lipo 10.5

I feel like I am missing one but off the top of my head it is not coming to me.

As always on weekend races if we have 2 of a chassis we will run it an see how it developes. With exception no open shock tower classes.
What are the rules for chassis in the pan car class?

Well, I don't see anything written specifically about that except for the max width. Truck arms will make you wider than the allowed 10".

From Teas that I pasted:
Must be a 2WD off road buggy chassis.

I am 99.9% sure it's all buggy parts only since they already have a truck class.

You are 100% correct. Any rear motor 2WD off road buggy chassis is allowed.

Hey Guys...

I just mounted the Losi late model body on the Slash, and it looks killer. The only mod was about 1/2 inch off the front body posts, other then that the body fits perfect!!!! Now it just needs a coat of paint.

So really, there is no major changes that need to be done to convert back to a truck. Put the front bumper back on, and swap the 2 body posts, and that is all.

You will probably want to find a way to cushion the front of the body with a big foam bumper. The late model bodies fold under when hit and start cracking at the wheel wells. Also, smear a bunch of Shoe Goo under the front of the body, that will help keep it in one piece.

Or just don't hit anything.
