Default Pre-Worlds Again? FL State Race At Worlds Track Aug 21-22

There is a Florida State Series (www.fseara.org) Race Scheduled for August 21-22 at the site of the IFMAR Worlds in Kissimmee FL.

Tamiya Japan, Team Xray, Team Losi, Team Schumacher, Team Corally and a few others are flying pro drivers in for this last race before the Worlds.

Because of this FSEARA is waiving the normal 10T ROAR Mod Motor limit for this race only. It will be Open Mod following IFMAR rules.

Adrian-You need to run it by the track to see if they would be interested in using VHT for the FSR and the Worlds....At the recent US Nationals they used VHT twice a day and the track was awesome. Tire wear was very little and the track had a ton of grip. This would be good to have in case those inevitable Florida rains come like they always do.

actually the 1/10 pan class is six cell open stock, with option to run 4 cell 19t with a touring body its an exibetion run. Pluss if 8 guys show and want open mod I am sure we can accomodate so anyone with a pro ten clear off the dust and bring it out.

Open mod would be if requested, other then that it will be six cell stock with GTP body or 19t 4cell with touring body.

Hector :actually open mod was never -ever discussed and is not an option.The two classes are to run together and be scored seperately. They are running a race within a race.That's what was discussed.

Adrian-Another great thing with the VHT was the fact that the track was good to run on 10 minutes after it was sprayed.

I know . And considering we never mention a mod class I would not have even mentioned it.It's a non class and we are trying to bring it back- Now you want three different types to run. It's hard enough as it is !Still have some new wide Bolink GTP bodies- TOJ,Nissan GTP,Porsche 962 and Mark3 Riley and Scott.

Iknow bill I threw out there to see a response. Remember I am putting on a race in texas. We both have our own phylosiphies on how to revive the class.
Putting the info out there regardless wether its stk, 19t, or mod! It will bring out someone. Hey would you rather them show up or not. lets put the word out there wether 19t, stk, or mod I dont care. just let them show up and see what we get.
Bill we have a plan to run six cell stk with gtp, and 4 cell 19t touring. That is what we agreed but if they come for mod are you going to send them away! catch and lure!

P.M me or call me I'll explain!

meat head its for fun. touring is where its at yes! but everywhere around the world except this country still runs them and hold a nationals for them with 100+ entries. The reason it died he is because the previous roar president Twrecks (trex)
killed them.
racing entries for all big race venues have died down because touring is expensive so they ventured out to other types of racing. we are trying to bring the people back.
Meat head to you it doesnt mean anything , but 13 cars in a short notice and being way up northwest! thats enough. sit back and watch cant wait to see you running one so I can say isnt touring where its at!

1/10 Pan is a dead horse...stop beating it!

Why in the world do you want to bring that back when you can just run 1/12. Heck, with 8 min runs you get more track time.
