Exclamation Super Nitro

Anyone living in the N.Va,Md and Dc area and wants to race super nitros can post here. I've had a request to try to see how many people in this area with super nitros that are interested in getting that class back again. When I raced in the super nitro class a couple years ago I had a blast but that class wasn't big enough. There were a few tracks here and there with a few supers. I think if every super nitro owner went to the same tracks to race then there would have been better luck in keeping this class. I still race my super at the hpi challenge but even that (hpi challenge) is fading. It usually takes about five people to start a new class at most tracks.

Default Nigel!

I think we need to pay Linville a visit in the near future! See if yo can find out when there will be a lot of people there, and we will go to show them a few things.

I've always wanted to give Linville a try. I heard it's a pretty cool track. I will most certainly look into it Paul. Heard you guys got rained out yesterday, where will you be racing this weekend?

Default Impressive Hybrid

Nice! I ran an os15cvr and I shaved the rims down and mounted my own foams. It did pretty well running with the impacts. I always ran faster lap times with my super than my touring.

I have no complaints with my r40. Very pleased performance wise. The mugens are getting a run for their money. 04 upgrade kit is on the way from Japan. Do you run r40 also?
