Default CH Cup

So we are going to start something to just have a bit of fun. The winner of T/C 19T and 2wd mod will have their picture taken with the CH Cup. This is a bi-weekly award and will be given out on wednesday and friday nights (you dont actually get to keep the cup, just have your pic taken with it). If there are other classes out there that would like to participate just let me know. Check out the IIC Road to Vegas thread for on road results: http://rctech.net/forum/showthread.php?t=170263

Yeah, sorry about that...not my deal...I just run the races. Glad to see you coming down. Tires: basically panther slicks, either clay (takes a while to break in fully) or soft compound (breaks in quicker). On my B4 I run clay bobcats (made into slicks) in the front and softs in the rear, both with trinity blue foam. Last time I ran truck I ran softs all the way around I beleive also with Trinity blue foam. Look forward to you coming down!

There is usually a very good 19t truck class and for the most part a good 2wd mod class. BK said that he will be out every race night so you should count on a 2wd mod class for sure. I wont be there this friday but other than that i am always there. You should get some people together and come down. Zippy and I need to make a trip up there soon as well.

Is there a 2wd Mod/19T or Truck Mod/19T class down there on a regular basis at all?

The biggest off road classes are 19t truck and 2wd mod. 19t truck usually has 8-10 guys every night with 2whl mod about 4-5+ each night
