MONEY RACE @ BATTLEFIELD RACEWAY SEPTEMBER 9th
 
The classes will consist of: 1/10th Electric Class, 1/10th Nitro Class, Monster Truck Class, 1/8th buggy Class, 1/8th Truggy Class. Entry fee will be 20.00. Pay back will be 50% and will pay to the top 3 places in A mains. Sign-ups will end at 1:30 racing at 2:00. Sprinkler is up and runing great. Track is in great shape.

Rfury 08-26-2007 09:11 PM

I assume the electric will be a mixed class of whatever shows up. If so then its time to really push on the XXX-4 and get it changed over to BL and Lipo.

lanerbrainer205 08-27-2007 05:10 PM

oh no! I have to choose between primetime and battlefield!!! :cry: this is going to be a very, very hard choice. :confused:

ChadRacing 08-27-2007 05:19 PM

Choose Battlefield This race sounds interresting....I might have to come to this and race my xxx-4

PRIME TIME 08-27-2007 05:56 PM

NO chose primetime no one races10 scale 4 wheel drive buggy!

ChadRacing 08-27-2007 06:09 PM

PrimeTIme....Why do you always hack into other threads about your track when the thread has nothing to do with your track?.... IF you go to Battlefield you would see people racing 4wd buggies there

Anyways back to the Battlefield money race.... Dion will the 1/10th electric class be a combined class or will it be seperate classes if more show up for a certain type of vehicle? Im wondering cause im interrested in racing at this race.

Exactly, no one races electric at all from my understanding at PT.

Why is that anyway?

I have no idea. I don't want to show up and be the only electric there. I never hear of anyone running electric up there.

FATKAT 08-27-2007 08:13 PM

That is what has me puzzled

I don't know were any one is running electric off road any more

ChadRacing 08-27-2007 08:16 PM

From when i raced there with mine the track was to rocky and dusty. It would just throw them around. And from what I hear it is still rocky. Dions at battlefield is perfect for electrics. Good size jumps, sprinkler system, and its not rocky. Also more electrics race there

Rfury 08-27-2007 08:20 PM

Its not that rocky now. My xxx-4 didn't get too knocked around. Only in the areas where water had pooled after some heavy rains.

The jumps though are a little weird. You have to hit them just right or the buggy doesn't jump right.

Wait does Dion have a Rc Tech username? Also I went up ther on Sunday and there were 5-6 electrics racing.

bigde2001 08-28-2007 10:18 AM

Hi everyone this is Dion and my screen name is as bigde2001. As for electric I am really trying to promote it and I am even racing in it myself. Right now I have been operating electric as a run what you brung. I am running a xxx-t and I am not scared of any of them 4-wheel drives. I welcome everyone to come and get a spanking in electric.;);)

ChadRacing 08-28-2007 11:46 AM

Hmmmmm sounds like a challenge to me :) Dion is your xxx-t a MF edition?

I have been busy and broke. A bad combination. She will see the track this weekend. Going up to Dion's for a recon race on Sunday.

Edit: Not so busy now but still broke.

ChadRacing 08-28-2007 06:42 PM

Good question. I have the original xxx-4. Its alot more fragile than the graphite version.

Dirt McGirt 08-28-2007 08:01 PM

the shop
 
The shop is not too far from the track maybe 4 miles if that.... Couldn't tell you the directions.... But if he has the parts he will get em to ya so you can race!:nod:

ChadRacing 08-28-2007 08:02 PM

ok cool thanks for info Dirt

Dirt McGirt 08-28-2007 08:09 PM

Nada
 
No problem Chad good to hear from ya...:cool:

bigde2001 08-28-2007 08:22 PM

At this time I do not carry parts for the xxx4, I will slowly be building the stock up. Hobby shop is a mile and a half from track.

ChadRacing 08-28-2007 08:27 PM

ok thanks.....i need to get some parts then just in case

Rfury 08-28-2007 08:29 PM

I will be bringing my old T3 roller and my RC10GT along. They are for sale. I will have them with me this Sunday and on the 9th.

Yeah I guess I should grab another set of front ans rear arms. Any other recommendations for spares Chad?

Budman 08-28-2007 09:15 PM

I will knock the dust off my xxxt and be there next weekend!!!!! What are the rules in electric consurning motors and battery. Also what classes do you all have for electric? This will be the first time I have raced off-road in about a year.

Rfury 08-28-2007 09:17 PM

I am going to run good ole' Brushed and NiMH this weekend. Next weekend though I will be running the newer BL/LiPO combo.

Chad I stopped yesterday by HT in kennesaw and they have xxx-4 parts the only problem is they have them in baskets mixed w/other brand parts in the back of the rc area.:confused: yea u gonna have to search for them yourself.

Rfury 08-29-2007 07:40 AM

Yeah I have seen that pile. They may still have a few of the shared parts on the wall. Things like rear hub and arms.

jspurgin 09-05-2007 09:09 AM

I think i'm actually gonna get to race this weekend...:nod: .. Dion i need some 20% byrons

Rfury 09-05-2007 09:13 AM

As long as I don't break anything Saturday I should be good for Sunday. Going to change the drive belt Saturday and get some practice in at PT to adjust to the power increase on a track instead of my yard.
