Hi BC, running open motors are based on honesty also, silver can n black can be mod too.
It will be good if racers can chose what system they want to use. Those who wants brush can run brush. Those who want bl can use as long it's a 21-25T bl. It's still can be fun n fair.
I tried running cheap lrp brush esc before but with over heat problems with the motor n Esc.
If possible review that so we can use our existing equipments
I like this vintage so much that I brought a thundershot just to race buggy n truck.
Buy more spares for both cars. Hope not to spend more on brush system.
Cheers!

Have chatted with the organizers and it's been decided to stick with the current motor rule - brushed black or silver can motors only.
Standardizing the speed of the motors will increase the fun-factor by still keeping the cars somewhat closer and will also reduce damage to all cars on the grid.
Sticking to black or silver can brushed motors keeps it simple for everyone without worrying about ESC settings and also makes it easier to check.
We understand why some might want to run brushless setups (I would personally love to test a 8.5T in my vintage 2WD) but after looking at this from different angles the organizers have decided that this would be best.
Thank you for your understanding and I apologize for any inconvenience caused.

Thx BC
May I know is this the correct specs of the following motors?
The Tamiya black can 'Sport Tuned' motor is 23 turns. Otherwise it is identical to the silver can 27 turn stock RS540.

guys , i can understand where you're coming from , but again i think the organiser limiting to silver and black cans is good. while i have vintage mod and stock racing motors which i hope to run during the race , i'll just stick to the rules and can't expect the organiser to cater to everyone's requirements. besides it's a simple and inexpensive rule to follow btw if you guys feel it's kinda troublesome to buy esc just for this race , i have spare teu101 n 104 esc i can borrow u guys , u just need to get the y harness .

NOOB CLASSICS 2.0 - Announcement
Hi guys, we're about 2 weeks away from the NOOB CLASSICS event scheduled for March 20. We've currently got 10 participants signed up and we hope to see more registrants in the next week or so.
Unfortunately, we will need a minimum of 20 participants for the race to proceed - we'll review the registration list on Wed, 16 March 2011 and decide if the race will proceed accordingly.
So sign up if you intend to run but haven't already done so - we hope to let the good OLD times roll!

NOOB CLASSICS - Announcement
Hi guys, thanks to those who've signed up and expressed interest in running their vintage RC buggies and trucks! However, the NOOB team has decided to *cancel* the vintage run originally scheduled for this weekend due to registration numbers.
We apologize for any inconvenience caused and hope that the cool, innovative and quirky spirit of the golden age of RCs will live on here on our tiny little island state.

i think partly due to the registration cost of $25 which is high, should have just quoted $15 instead.
