Public Transportation to the Challenge....
While we're patiently waiting, I wanted to also offer my expertise as the "Self Proclaimed Ambassador of Public Transportation" to anyone who wants to consider saving some gas/toll money....
New Jersey Transit has a major bus line (the 406) that would drop you off right in front of Taylors or/and the Crowne Plaza!
There is only 1/4 mile difference between the two, so you can easily walk from one to the other!
Basically, if you can get to downtown Philadelphia or Camden N.J. you'd only be $3.10 and 45 minutes away from Philly and $1.90 and 25 minutes from Camden!
All of our transit lines are safe, although in my 8 years driving for NJ Transit, I was only involved in one mugging (hey, I needed the money....LOL)
Anyway, if you need me to plan your trip, just let me know....

Hey Ray, I couldn't find detailed rules on HPI's site, maybe you can help with this Q? In the RTR Cyclone S class, is it legal to use anything else for electronics? (crystals are changeable, for sure) Just curious about the motor, battery, transmitter, receiver, servo, esc, anything that uses electrons.
The Cyclone S Spec class per HB Underground series rules allows you to use you're own electronics. Stock HPI Saturn 27T (the kit spec) motor, HB Gumballs premounted tires/wheels, and handout 1500 battery. If there is enough interest in the class we'll include it in the HPI/HB Challenge event, probably sans handout battery (we're running out as we speak and we're probably going to introduce a new battery format). So the above spec and 2400 stick pack/Tamiya plug battery limit would be one option (to limit the cap, but still make it easy for people to get batteries).
Thanks,
AH

I think we should be able to come up with 7 Rally cars. Otherwise, I should be able to run the car in Electric sport. Thanks
