Just in case you didn't notice, I am adding 1/8 scale nitro sort course trucks to This Saturdays line up. Since they are not part of the points series YET, I am paying out $50 Cash to the winner.

2009 is going to be a awesome year for off road racing. Ultimate Audio has once again stepped up to the plate. I am also getting awesome response from rc manufactures. I also have a sponsor for the 8, 1000 watt lights we need. I will continue working on making your racing experience the best it can be. I am working on the next points series for Outacontrol Raceway. I am scheduling around Mothers day, Fathers Day, Easter, FSORS, and Super Cup. Is there any other Holiday or Race schedule I need to work around?
Thank you for supporting Outacontrol Raceway and our sponsors.

Thanks RED-LINE M03, This Saturday night after the nitro race I will be grooming the track for the Electric Race on Sunday. If any of the electric racers want to help me I will need to test the jumps after we are finished. Racers that help can run out a couple of battery packs.

We are trying to keep the stock class affordable for beginners. You can buy a Slash, 3000 Nimh 7cel, and charger for about $300. It is about 2x that for Slash, lipo, and charger. The stock and mod slash trucks will prob. run together for a while anyway.

2c Lipo pack is around $80-$100 $130 for a really good one. You can get a really nice lipo charger for less than $150. You really only need one lipo pack compared to 4 to 5 nmh packs. That being said great job on the track and racing program. I've had fun each time I've run with you guys and am looking forward to getting back into electric offroad.

I'm new at this so I'm sure once we get started new rules will develope and change. Here are my thoughts:
A average dad takes his 12 year old son to the local hobby shop. Tells the clerk we wants to buy a slash, a battery, and a charger. The clerk sets a Slash, a remonended NiMH battery, and a charger up on the counter and says that will be $300. The Son sees the battery and tells his dad the rule says 2 cell lipo is allowed at Outacontrol. So one of two things will happen.
1. The clerk tells them it will cost $450 and the dad says no way I'm paying that.
or
2. They buy a Slash, Lipo, and Charger. The Father and son take the truck home and charge the battery and start running the truck. They run the battery down to nothing and kill the battery or catch it on fire. Than they read the instructions and find Traxxas does't recommend using lipo and it voids the warranty. They get mad and call the hobby shop, Traxxas, and Outacontrol Raceway.
I think a couple of you guys work at a hobby shop and you know what I'm talking about. If you have enough experience to use lipo you problably don't want to race the beginners in the stock class.
Keep in mind this is all for fun. I am starting the electric races because guys were telling me there is no where in Central Florida to race electrics. Lets start racing and see how it goes. I'm sure things will shake out and it will be tons of fun.

lipo
I agree with that but on the other side, I race onroad electric. I have lipo packs already, I bought the Slash to start racing offroad without spending a ton of money. Now I have 2 choices run mine stock w/ my lipo in the mod class and learn how to drive it while getting lapped 10 times by some top level drivers with mod motors and 8th scale tires or spend $150 to buy some nimh packs. Just my thought. And you can buy a lipo for $50 and a multiplex charger for $60. Either way I will race and have watched a race there and think you guys do a great job. Thanks, Jayme

I'm not a very good driver and get lapped on a regular bases.lol....It's kind of funny when the leader is laping me and he is having hart failure because he can't get around me until I wreck. Slash class is all about driving. Brushless and mod motors are not going to be a big advantage. It is a 2wd truck with the same tire stock or mod. It's going to be a hand full.
