i did myself had a real good time there friday night.wyd-i fought with not having any rear traction with the sct as well.
as for 2wd buggy tire...by al meens i wasnt i contender.but tire wise i used losi 3 rib in reds in the front and proline evil twins in m3 in the rear.that seemed to work better than losi 2 rib in red in the front with losi bk-bars in red in the rear.
im most definately making the trip there for the trophy race.
c-ya guys then.

Just curious about the rules for SCT. I think I remember reading that your stock rules are the ROAR rules and than Mod is obviously mod. Just want to clarify myself and James Schlick are making the trip from Long Island and I run SCT so I want to know the rules so I can be ready. Thanks and looking forward to the race on Saturday.

Thanks for the info Bob. Will you be racing this time around?
As Ryan said, does anyone know the entry fees? Will there be tech enforced?
Johnathan,
I hope to see you there. A few of us are planning on coming up if this thread gets some life. For this to be a sponsored or trophy race it sure is hard to get info.
Thanks,
Bryan

Just asking a question. Will you guys even have a Mod SCT class? It does not look like it and if that is the case than I will probably not be coming as my truck has a lot of stuff that I do not feel like changing. My truck is ROAR spec but not spec spec. Need to know before I make the trek.

Mt Joy does have a few hotels. They would be like 10 minutes or so from the track. Unfortunately I forget the names of them. I would just search hotels for Mt Joy PA and something should pop up for you.

Hey Bryan I do not think I will be able to make this one. My work is behind and might have to work this Saturday and part of Sunday. Will know for sure tomorrow. I hope to race looking forward to racing everyone.
Also guys sorry can't help you out on the tires for 2wd and truck tires. I do know I have seen alot of diiferent style tires being used with success. So far the track does not seem to be a 1 or 2 tire track. Hopefully one of the other guys can chime in and help you guys with that.
As for tires for Spec SCT. Either the Slash or the Blitz tires seem to be working really well. I know Brian ran the Associated tires but said it was a handfull.
