Quick VTA racing recap from Indy Slots on Friday. Turnout was a bit light with only 12 cars. However, the racing was very good. Top 4 cars in the A main each lead for a portion of the 8 minute main. Pegasus Mustang/TC4 took the win followed by 2 HPI Camaro/TC5's.

Any help would be great.

wiscnitro,
Well you are alittle to late. There were two races this past winter at RCP. There was a Big T/A race at The Track a couple of months ago. I am pretty sure there will be a couple series races this Fall/Winter. Trackside, The Track and hopefully RCP will have a Series Race of some sort.

Who says the rules don't produce good results! 
(some sandbagging and intentional fun-having transpired, your results may vary)
We ran right at the 4.2 gear ratio limit on a decently sized 1/10 asphalt track, and that made for some great straightaway battles. The motors came off 120F in the heat of the day, and while I am not sure if any brushed motors raced, if they did, the competition was fairly even with the 21.5BL gear limit in use.
