Sounds good. Ready for 12th.... got some practice laps in this weekend to shake a car down. Gravity G12 tires seem to be perfect right out of the package, they are a good size for asphalt without needing to be trued.

I don't know if anyone interested in the class has a preference, but I vote 13.5 for motors. 17.5 is kind of boring for this class.

No, 12th scale (pan car). I assume those interested are looking to run 13.5, it's the norm most everywhere...

We were running 1/12 th locally with 17.5. I was going to run the same at Stricklands, That's fine with me it will stay at home. I have enough classes to race without it (Legends-WGT and VTA).

12th- 13.5 > 17.5

But I have both motors at my disposal. So whatever the popular vote may choose as the preferred option, so be it. The class has been ignored for too long and it's time to drum up some interest again...

I ran about 35-40 practice laps this weekend and it's enough to convince me there is no reason we can't run these on asphalt.

Thanks to everybody for all the interest for Strickland. I'm in for WGT and for the first time, VTA. Hope 12th scale comes back as it is fun here. See everybody Sunday.
