lol thanks for the Dirla Rule guess I'll run 17.5 then. and Larry I wouldn't want to run against you as you are too slow down the straight. but then I could pull the iron man and run 10.5 and 17.5 in 12th and tc

Sorry if I missed it but what will be the weight for Rubber T/C, 1500g per ROAR or 1420g along the lines of the ROAR deviation for the Asphault Nats.

Also Chicky you mentioned in an earlier response to 1slowamishguy you might have another option for the Spec Foam, any hints yet?

Im gonna hope the weights are the same as they were For the IIC. That was a nice change not having to run 10lbs of lead on my car.

I'm doing a little research on the weight thing. I need to check out what ROAR is going to do for next year still and then we will let you know.

Later this week on the tires!

Just a heads-up for a future Slam race:

I just got my passport on Saturday. I applied for it on Aug 25, so it took just under 4 weeks.

Let's not be like the typical R/C racers and put everything off until the last minute...get it done now!

Without all the extra mass how could you expect the car to carry any speed at the end of the straight?

Please get your entries in soon. They are rolling in and I'd hate for someone to miss it!

For the hotel, the hold on the group block ends October 6th. Then our block of rooms can be sold to the public. As long as the hotel does not sell out you will be able to get a room and rate until the race date.

Thanks!
