Rather than pissing and moaning here where only a few will see it, shoot your complaints directly to ROAR. Maybe, just maybe, if they get enough requests from the average racer, they will change things and give you all the class you want.

As an "old timer" my self, I like the idea of stock, super stock, and modified. Oh and throw the ESC timing in the garbage and give set up more precedents.

Thank you.

Maybe, if it fits there agenda.

Hey Adam - I gave VRC a try but gave up because the delay (transmitter response time) was so frustrating. Do you have any tricks to fix the delay or is that just how it works?

Thanks, Scott

make sure you calibrate you controller in windows...do a google search for it and you should find how to do it on your OS.

Go into the graphics settings in the game and turn all options as low as you can. Also, disable VSYNC.

Thanks to all that helped pull it together.

Another layout? Have I been AWOL that long?

It has been awhile? We change layout's about every 4 weeks. It's a lot of fun you should make it out this Thursday with your buddy and get your F1 on.

Pretty sure when I get back in town tonight all my goods for my wgt car will be in, and I'll be ready to get on that. I did some front end tweaks (long arm'd the r5 front end on my 1/12), and with the 20+ ring in the v3 I hope that car will be a bit more on pace

Looking forward to Thursday

These little Losi Dots look like a great solution...If the club members would be open to this I will put in an order so that we can try them out.

This picture from the Seattle Hanger 30 track looks like they have a good solution for the corners using dots. These dots are so low profile that they wont launch cars or chunk tires.

I know everyone is so opposed to change, but this track looks awesome and we could have something like it here as well.

Here is the link to the dots...

I still think a Norcal type system would be better but i''m game for anything that helps prevent part breakage and body damage.
