Default Electric Sprint Car options
They had a sprint car class at the oval track i race at this weekend and i have to get one They look like they are a blast to drive and very fast once setup right.

What are the best options? One of the cars was a Custom Works car, and the rest were buggy conversions. They were all running pretty close to each other, but the guy with the Custom Works sprint had just got it, so maybe it would shine once setup correctly.

What are the pros/cons of each.

Im wanting to race it on carpet oval on friday nights and dirt oval on saturday night. The dirt oval is extremely smooth and is comparable size to the carpet oval.

I run a b4 conversion made by TLR chassis. It is just as fast as the custom works cars at my local track. I think i'm the only one left without one to be honest. BUT ease of setup, parts availability usually custom works cars are the best to go with. And usually cheaper if you dont' have a b4 or parts car already. I know my TLR if bought new (conversion and new B4) would cost over $500...

Ive got one for sell if your interested. I can leave the Novak Brushless in it to if youd like. I have either the 3.5, 4.5, 5.5, or 5800.

ill send pics if youd like, Ran it 1 season on concrete with foams and it was hooked up. Also ran it on loose dirt and it handled well.
