Default Mini-Z 3 hours endurance race.

S.C Speed Racer is going to do a 3 Hours Endurance Race end of this month or early next month. It will be a team race. Each team using only one car. Most likely need to change motor during the 3 hours race. So pit stop very important, especially changing batteries. Battery may be close to 700 mAh only. Motor most likely open. Suggestions are most welcome. More info will be posted here soon. Thank you for reading.

About 2 to 4 members in a team.

For the battery, details not confirm yet. Most likely you can use any brand, just that not more than 700mAh.

Important thing is transponder must be in the car and may be need to change transponder at least once during the 3 hours.
For tires any rubber tires is ok and allow to change during race.

Default THINGS TO TAKE NOTE

ALOTS of planning is needed to make sure your car go through the checker flag.

Things to take note.
* Tires
* Batteries for car and transmiter
* Motor
* Pit stop (For batteries, tires and maybe transponder.
* How long each racer will drive. Who to drive first, who to rest, who to look after the racing car, who to charge the batteries.
* Must prepare for unforseen cases like servo gear or H bar broken.
* All the team racers must get used to the one and only car and transmiter.
* And many more....

For this race working as a TEAM is VERY VERY important.

Date not comfirm yet. About the race, I am not too sure racing or not. My car got internal turbo not suitable for the race. Looking for a stock car to race. So that no need to change batt so often. Then must setup a car that all of us can drive too. Think it should be fun. Let me know if you really interested.
