Looking like a lot of 17.5 blinky classes this year should be some close racing

I didn't see much about it.

"17.5 stock classes are blinky and will be teched and spot checked."

i didn't know they were using ROAR rules. there is a lot of roar rules. lane size, age limit for junior class, weight requirements, battery requirements.

i didn't think the rx8 would be a list of blinky esc's since it doesn't have a blinky mode lol

this is how it was last year stock classes had to be in blinky or a esc with no timing you might be able to run but to be in for trophys and money it has to be blinky from what its been in the past

I'm not exactly sure. I don't know anyone at thunder who runs castle electronics. But maybe some have formerly run them and can help you. Get with Robert and he might be able to point you in the right direction since he regulates all the final decisions on rules.

Doug you'll be good on the mamba max pro. It's on the list of ROAR approved ESC's. But I'm not sure if you can run your trackstar motor since is not on the ROAR approved list of motors.
