Next class?

I race on carpet and have done good with my Associated B6. I'm thinking about getting a new car whether it will be the B6.1 or something totally new. What would be a good class to get into?

Which classes run at your track?

I run stadium truck as a second class and enjoy it. There is a good amount of parts crossover with the associated buggies and trucks too which is good

Our track has 21.5 2wd Indy buggy, 17.5 2wd and 2wd mod, 13.5 stadium truck, 13.5 wheeler, and 13.5 short course. I've heard that setup isn't nearly as important in stadium truck so I'm kinda leaning towards that direction because the 2 wheel buggy seems like its all about setup. I run 21.5 buggy atm

Do what you like! I suggest just moving to the 17.5 2wd buggy class. It will cost less than going into ST or SC, as a bonus. Setup is super important in any class, whether it’s the stock Traxxas slash class or sportsman 2wd 17.5 buggy or 13.5 sct or pro mod 2wd buggy. Setup isn’t any less significant in ST than 2wd buggy.
