I still say the Ebuggy is harder to drive than the nitro car

Why do you say that? Is it the big power low down in the power band? If so, all you need is to develop better traction control on that throttle finger.

Of course, this is you we are talking about and you doing that is hopeless.

How do you know? All I hear from you is how driving anything is harder then sitting in the air conditioned pit trailer

How would ebuggy be harder to drive? With electrics, you get immediate and linear response to throttle input. Maybe because its got so much more immediate torque? Even then, you can dial out the excess in esc or radio.

I've heard a few nitro guys say the same thing, but not sure what the sentiment is based on. Please elaborate?

Guys,

The race is just around the corner! If you have not signed up on RCsignup please do so now. Ed is ordering the trophies and as of now there are no 4wd 1/10 signed up. He is not buying trophies for that class unless he has some entries. 5 makes any class.

BTW, I am not the race director for the event. ED Weaver is so if you have any questions please call him at 706-278-9184. I was only helping with the race. This is Dalton RC's event.

Brian

We will be watering and blowing of the track for the race to keep the tire wear down. This is why we are running a 2 day race so we can maintain the track and enjoy the race more.

JUST FYI. We have a guy coming from FL that wants to race 4wd buggy. IS anybody running that class? He will run 2wd open also, but would love to see some 4wd's.
