Do you have a 5.5 or a 6.5? A 4.5 will be too much on LiPo.

What track?

A 5.5 is like a really hot 10 Turn...almost a 9 turn. A 4.5 is like a really good 8 or a 7 turn. A 3.5 is a 6 turn. A 2.5 is nuttier than elephant turds.

On tight tracks for sure...maybe at SS Speeday if my car is really good...at a big track like Kissimmee the nitro cars would eat the electrics.

Remember the really quiet yellow car they kept lapping your 1/8th car at SS's opening day...that was me

LOL. You mean that yellow thing that sent me into panic mode to try and avoid destroying at every apex? When I was on a good lap you did a hell of a good job getting out of the way. Yeah I'll give it to ya, I have a rusty wheel and you did a good job passing me when I was hung up in a wall. I do so miss 1/12th mod 4 cell carpet munching, but I was young and my parents would not let me play with fire.

Yes I can run 8 mins and then pit,its in the carb settings and I don"t know of any racing worth watching that pitting is not a factor F1-Cart-even that thing they call NASCARtire:zoom,zoom can you smell that smell.Tell them what I"m talking about Drew

I know man...its all good

I think Nitro sedans and 1/8th are super cool. The only reason I dont race Nitro is because I am totally OCD about my cars and it just would take me too long to clean them every week. Thats what I don't race off road too...lol!
