Default Southern California F1 Series

FIRST SO CAL RACE IN F1 SERIES NOVEMBER 7TH

Next Saturday is an ALL F1 race day at Camarillo Roadrunners track...
This is the beginning of a Southern California F1 series...
foam and rubber class...
Hand out motors for everyone...
rules will be slightly different for each track, so keep up

The next stop will maybe be OCRC ???
After that we will give points for the F1 class at KO race at WCRC...
BCR will be on the list...
Charlie Barns has multiple tracks to hit...
Once we hit them all, then were done

Basically we will swarm tracks around town and make a Series...
Tim is keeping track of points and I will post it up on this site...

I saw a F10 running today on sedan foams looked pretty hooked up... I didn't ask what modifications he did ....

yeah it does mate..

the kit includes the bits to have either 4 or 6 cell set up.

and the shell is the wider one of the 2 so you can use 6 cell.

Anyone out there have some experience getting std 2S Lipos (3200-3800 ma) to fit in this car? Specifically the Thunder Power batts? They don't have 90* corners and are a little rounded.
