Hey, I know that track

I take it you're not running WGT rules.

That's an interesting choice and I'm not sure. I suspect 17.5 with boost would be better if set up right but 13.5 blinky would be easier to get on pace. Either way should be ballistic. 1s 13.5 is fairly quick. Hell we used to run 2s 21.5 at Debbies years ago and that was pretty quick.

Try using 10.5 boosted on 2S

Now that is quick

I don't want to buy all new batteries & ECS to run a class no one is willing to race. I'll try 13.5 blinky, I talked with you a few times at Debbie's, Sticks right?

Going with 13.5 non-boosted sounds like the thing to do, so that if you start falling asleep a bit, you can add some boost?

In case you missed it, new entry level WGT (I guess more BRCA GT10, since that included shell would be Very Forbidden by ROAR, because they don't like pretty things):

I'm sure that this will probably start a flame war, but I'm looking forward to the release of the CRC wheels that will allow F1 rubber tires to be mounted on pan chassis.

LOL@Nutdriver

On the german forum all hell broke loose as the have a major hate to rubber under a pancar.
This is because they run up to 4.5t star of 6.0 delta motors.

I think it should be good no matter what: either it'll be great and will bring a renaissance of pan car racing, or it'll suck and finally close this argument.

I've heard that those new tires are *NOT* belted, so that would be Very Bad (tm) for high powered applications.
