It was alot of fun even with the severe damage to the car. I lost the body ,wing(which came off to start the whole mess), the shock (completely destroyed), the "A" arm, the drive shaft and cup in the diff,and the top plate was broken too:D.New parts are on the way today and I should be ready by the next race date. Yea I would really appreciate a copy of some of those pictures.:nod:

I'm going to try and make it down for the next race. What are you guys running in the TC class? Boosted or non-boosted speedo's, rubber or foam tire?
Is there any interest in running F1 cars?

hairy 02-07-2011 12:00 PM

T/c 17.5, Rubber, boosted. although I don't think boosted played that big a part on this track, i could be wrong it has happened before:rolleyes:

Csaari77 02-07-2011 12:19 PM

Thanks Mike. I'm probably going to run non-boosted to get ready for TCS. Hopefully it won't be too far off the pace.:sneaky:
What tires seen to be working, or is it still up in the air?

hairy 02-07-2011 12:34 PM

Not sure on the tires yet, I ran jaco blues and solaris tires, I like the jaco blues best though.

Oh yes!I am putting together a small group of F1's to race at one lug. Probably start with silver can / 21.5 for Tamiya style and pancars racing together until it builds then seperate them if the numbers build up for two classes. Getting in to F1 is way cheaper now with the 3racing F109 and the Tech racing 125. Both are about $95 and race ready. rcmart has them both.

I just want to race!

Has anyone heard if they are going to put in the 2 inch square tubing yet?

yes, its in their plan just not sure when. the race rails are starting to crumble from being outside in the sun. also, rc cars arent helping from the wrecks.:) i think they are trying to figure out how to secure them down to the floor and keep them from being shifted around during races

Velcro will work real well for holding down the tubes and won't hurt the cars if they hit them.

Remember my motto, " It doesn't matter how big the track is, the walls are always too close to the track!":lol:
