cannot wait!! i'll actually have a job this racing season!!
quick question, would 3s be ok to run in a 4wd sct? im looking to get a losi ten scte and geared down, it just makes more sense considering the weight of these trucks rather than strain a 2s battery for extra amps.

okay boys and girls, 1 month away from the opener. here is what the idea is for the start of the season. this week the weather is suppose to be decent. i am going to get there in the next day or 2 if it stays dry and do some spraying and give it a good look over. as of right now i am hoping not to have to a complete rebuild. i know we usually start the season with a fresh layout, but i only have 3 races scheduled before the NCT race and we really cant afford 2 full blown rebuilds 3 races apart. So if i can just do a little face lift to start the season it will be the best.
If it stays nice, i may want to get on it this coming weekend, but i have a birthday party saturday and sunday is easter, so i will know later this week. If anyone has a Quad that can pull a drag let me know, i would like to drag the whole thing to smooth it out and fill the holes, i have a plan to move some pipes and change the layout without changing any of the jumps. and we will need some manual labor to reshape and clean up the jumps.
I know everyone would like a new layout to start the season, but i would like to save resorces and equipment for the big rebuild the end of June.
i will keep everyone informed as the week goes on, but if not this weekend, then the last available weekend for a work party will be the first weekend of May......
