So were not allowed to used brushed motors and Nimh packs? I hope I just misunderstood. Not everyone has the cash to go lipo and brushless...

From what I was told, it was a misunderstanding and yes you can run nimh's and brushed motors. You have to call the shop to get more details.

there wasnt a vote for an 8 min. main. this was changed because there are so many different electric classes it takes all day to finish the race program. and because of the afternoon showers,but i dont see how knocking two minutes of a main is that much more helpful. maybe if the lack of attendance was less they would change it back. I remember when we had 20 guys show in nitro expert and now theres only 6! maybe if local guys would support on raceday in sted of driving hours elsewhere we wouldnt have this problem.

That's no excuse why you don't race nitro anymore.
consistency is what nitro is about not our fault you can't finish
Track is only 25 minutes away for me so the drive is not the issue Austin I can't see myself awaiting all the down time from all the other races to race 8min & I don't do electric anymore so that's just me as for anyone else let them speak for themselves but I might come down there to see some familiar faces & have fun
