I think I can come out on Sunday.
But let's take a vote on when people want to test and tune on a prepped track. This Sunday or the 31st?

Races are always 2nd and 4th Sundays right even if there is an odd number of Sundays in the month, so next month is still 2nd and 4th right?

I think the guys are in the 3.4 - 3.7 range with the Novak BOSS 25.5 motor. We follow the VTA rules however we do allow open gearing and any blinky speedo. It's a growing class next race should be in the double digits for entries.

Aloha Joe, No worries you will do fine out there and the boards are pretty forgiving at the track.

Third request for results from last week. Please!

I read the Xray set up guide and found out things I didn't know about droop and downstop adjustments. First of all, I thought droop was adjusted by the downstop screws in arms using a droop gauge. But, its measured by raising the front or rear of the car from ride height just before the tires leave the surface, the amount of lift is the droop. I always thought the downstop screws were the droop adjustment and thats it. Downstop, ride height, and droop affects each other I found out.

Pan car is so simple to setup

Btw, I got the ride height on the SpecR to go lower. I have it at 7mm front and rear now and can go lower. Got to redo the droop.

If everything goes well, see you guys Sunday, racing VTA only. Need to see if new setups works or not.
