from the facebook posts, it sounds like (NOTE: THIS IS NOT DEFINITIVE) the class may have an upper limit of the vxl system RTRs.
I could consider that personally if my kids are interested too. My older one though is really liking the buggies lol.
Also, something about those OBA slash versions seems cool to me at least.

The reason I am asking as their are quite a few of these in the for sale section and on eBay with some of the " hop-up-parts" and really don't want to pickup a couple of trucks with this stuff already added and not be within the rules.

Again, this is my opinions to this point. It has to be finalized by the club.
I was thinking of the truck, as it comes out of the box, no hop ups. The only change would be the receiver so you can use your radio.
This is the truck I was thinking of. https://m.traxxas.com/products/models/electric/58024slash
This would be the biggest motor you can use.

2s lipo maximum. What else?

Did a bit of searching, it seems traxxas does offer at least the 2wd truck in several configurations that have "hop-ups" in comparison to other versions of the truck, like the LCG chassis on this version:
Traxxas Slash VXL LCG 1/10 RTR Short Course Truck w/On Board Audio, TSM, TQi & iD Battery
https://www.amainhobbies.com/traxxas...076-21/p445447
As a suggestion to be taken up by the club, maybe it would be good to say whatever part comes on any of the slashes for your class (so 2wd to 2wd, 4x4 to 4x4) you can use on your truck.
So, in short, if traxxas sells a slash with an LCG chassis and without, you can "upgrade" your truck to that.
Again, just a thought to keep things simple as much as possible that the club can discuss further.

https://www.amainhobbies.com/traxxas...076-21/p445447
This is the Traxxas Slash VXL LCG 1/10 Ready to Run Short Course Truck. This Slash VXL is hard-loaded for ultimate performance and realism with the Traxxas On-Board Audio, Traxxas Stability Management (TSM) and a low-CG chassis. Traxxas On-Board Audio delivers the full short course experience with the powerful and loud sound of a 900 horsepower engine ripping through the gears. While TSM and the Low CG chassis combine for next level speed and precision.
So, in short, if traxxas sells a slash with an LCG chassis and without, you can "upgrade" your truck to that.

That's not really the spirit I'd like the class to have. The basic kit only, you can choose 7 cell nimh or 2s lipo. You can add the vxl 3350R only. This class is really meant to bring all of the people that have a slash to the track, get them hooked and have them get into other classes. I don't want to see this turn into a cut throat stock class.

If that's the case, then you will want to specify exactly what slash kit is legal and which one isn't since Traxxas makes more than just 1 type of kit, hence the link I listed above.
Could be something as simple as the version I listed isn't legal, etc due to its lcg chassis.
Just a thought.
Oh for those curious on seeing a track that Jon has done in the past (or at least part of it), I found this:
Excited to see what is done for the new one.

MMR's successful Spec slash class uses only brushed slash's with 8.4 lipo and you can swap the servo and use your own radio and receiver. They found the traxxas servos blew out instantly making it no fun. So the allowed those to swap. I would look into their rules and go from there, as it's their second largest class to stock buggy some nights.

That's good to know about the servos, thanks Danny.
