This past weekend at the fuzz. I saw something that has been missing for a long time in rc racing. FUN. everyone who came out this past weekend had a blast. everyone truly enjoyed the hobby. Everyone was laughing and having a great time. It didnt matter if you were leading or racing mid pack. it was great time. There was no arguing or crap talking. Friends racing friends. Thankyou dean for providing the best track in florida. You truly understand whats most important about rc racing.

Hey Rich, what part of Ohio did you race? I use to race in Cincinnati. By the way my GT 12 car is about 8 years old

Hi Brian. I used to race outdoors in the summer at The Hobbyshop in Dayton and at Access Hobby in Springfield the rest of the time. Also occasionally at Queen City when it was in Batavia. I was under the impression I had to have a Supastox chassis for GT12, which I didn't want to buy right now. Nice thing about VTA is it's a pretty universal class that can run anywhere. So anytime I go back to Cincy for a visit I can race VTA. Should of thought of that before. Maybe GT12 later in the year. One question tho, is the Supastox chassis legal for other 1/12 classes?

I have been to a couple of those tracks in Ohio. As for GT12 you can run any 12th scale pan car in the class. It is basically 21.5 12th scale racing. I like the new life like bodies. It is a very fun class and cheap. The tires last long time also.

Hey Brian, I'm going to try to make it to The Fuzz this Sunday. I'll have a VTA and a GT12, wrong body tho. Maybe I'll see you there.

Looks like i ordered a defective receiver for my TC. Now i have to decide on do I want to run GT 12 or tune on my TC Sunday. I guess if my TC body comes in tomorrow I will focus on TC.

Hey Brian, I've got an extra Spektrum receiver you can use if that's your brand of Radio. If my VTA car runs well enough I'll race it. Bringing the car for Gt12 but will just be trying to sort it out. GT12 body on order. What food places are there close to the track or should I bring my own?

Well due to all the flight delays thanks to Trump's Gov shutdown. I did not get my order in for my TC. So I will be racing GT12. Lets see if I can get more speed to hang with the fast guys this time. 😎

Lol, I dont think I can do much with the batteries I have now. After the snowbirds I will order better batteries. Rule to remember, never try to order good batteries/ motors near a major race.

Raced for the first time at The Fuzz yesterday. What a great track! Everyone was very friendly and the racing was great. A big thanks to Dean for providing a place to race like The Fuzz.
