What tires and gearing are people finding work well for 17.5 in 2wd sct? Hopefully some of us Saskatoon guys can make it to a few of your race days this winter!
No one has run 2wd short course yet, but if you come out let us know and a few of us will bring the short course trucks.

Hi All

Trukz is racing this Saturday as usual. Doors open at 10am, with racing to start at 11am. Please also remember to bring your old car/truck bodies to hang at the track. Feel free to attached you body to the conduit on the south wall of the building with a zip tie (bring your own zip tie). For you onroad folks, Karz will be holding an onroad race on Sunday November 6th at Elizabeth Barrett school, 605 4th Ave N, Cochrane. Set up at 10am. Thanks.

Hi guys.
Really enjoyed visiting the track yesterday. What a fantastic job Brad and the TRUKZ crew have done
Ran a few laps with Erwin's car, what a blast that was! Apparently off road requires a bit of finese on the throttle. I'd need to work on that.
It was great to see everybody, hopefully I can get my hands on a vehicle and try out a race day sometime soon.

Hey Kev thanks for coming out to see it, you are always welcome and a great ambassador of rc at any track or event. I am sure scott can dig something up for you.

Cheers!

Hi All

Thanks again for coming out and supporting the club. As many of you may have known, we have been spending the past few weeks building up a brand new team associated B6d for Brad. Today was the day that we gave it to him. To show how much people were thankful for him spearheading this project, we raised enough money in 24 hours from racers to get this kit and some other gear going. Thanks to Curtis Webster, James Hollinger from PM, Anthony Bond for the paint, Peter Tozser for the tires, and Irwin for the build, and Jason Ross for the radio install.

Thankyou to all that were involved in this secret project, I was so shocked and very very surprised at such a cool gesture. That is a great job to have so many involved and keep it a secret. I was wondering why curtis wanted me to come off the stairs, I thought he wanted to go on the stairs to talk so everyone could see him (teehee). Thanks again and It is so nice to see so many that come out to the track and all have the same focus of having a fun place to race and promote the hobby.( how cool is that we are racing in dirt with snow on the ground).
