I'm scuffing as we speak and I'll have the dummy tube installed!

Is it true that Pink is faster than Yellow though? I have a few colors to choose from and I need to pick the fastest color!

What a bigger screw head that is the same size and length as the stock shock mounting screw? I hate that tiny little screw thats included.

Can't really give that type of info out on a public forum but I've had pretty good luck with all white(clear windows) but I did see an all pink k car go pretty fast yesterday:nod:

Interesting on the roar rules, I am not sure about that one unless it is a new rule.
I am sure a scuffed wing will make me faster.
I guess I have to find out what I can use to scuff my wing.

It's been around for a few years. It came to light about 10 or so years ago, the track that held the roar nats (i think it was the tiltyard) didnt have a hobby shop onsite so nobody could buy paint for them, so they scuffed them.

I heard that BK started the scuffed wing. But who knows

Car weight
 
Anybody have a specific scale they use to weigh their cars? What is a good weight to be around?

I just bought a really nice digital one at walmart. It was like 30 bucks. You can get them for $15-20 but this one was backlit and does other cool stuff ill never use. I think 1499g is roar, Got my tank down to 1505g.

Im ar 1501g with a lot of weight added. If I remove it all ill be well under roar min.

How?!

Wildcat1971 01-28-2013 05:16 PM

that is a good question. 1501 with "a lot" of weights sounds wrong.

TonyWest 01-28-2013 06:38 PM

I am still not sure if I get it

But I hope I pick up a half a second a lap with a scratched up wing.
