Could anyone that has the phone numbers or contact info for previous landlords, please forward them to me.
Since I am back working nights, I can call and contact people during the day.

any ideas on what the slash/sct class will be. I saw rcp is going stock and mod. I want to go back to stock with this class and spend more time and effort on the open truck class

+1, the only way I would be interested in a slash class is with stock/mod...

It isn't terribly hard to run separate classes in a combined round on RC Scoring & it does seem to work for the most part.
If there is enough to break them out into two separate rounds that's even better.

I can run SCT Stock if it is 13.5, if it is 17.5 then I'm out. I can definitely run SCT Mod .

Granted the stock slash guts were fast enough, if they would have lasted I wouldn't have taken them out...

A flip of the coin will decide if I'll run a Stadium Truck or SC Truck.

I am leaning towards a stock slash class and a mod corr truck class.

Stock means stock...just like it came from the box.

Mod means any brand of corr truck and anything goes.

Just my 2 cents at this point. All classes to run a corr style body and non-foam wheels. Tire additives must be a labled product able to be bought at a hobby store.

We all can have a meeting and discuss it some evening at the track. Let's find a track first.

I realy like RCP's rules... that way you could race at marcca and RCP with no worries...

So the skinny Silverado body or the Chevy Nomad station wagon body is the concern...?
I think there might be a CORR body I like finally out if I took the time to look again.
I'm mostly doing Pre-Running, those are just Pre-Runner bodies...
Mmmmm, I do like the smell of Paragon.

I would have to see RCP rules before I commented on them.

Not much listed there except for allowable motor systems in the stock class. That one rule seems reasonable to allow some motor options.

ROAR is allowing any legal chassis from any maker in stock, but it has to be out of the box (Strike hasn't been officially approved). The only exceptions are you can swap to a 17.5 Brushless and you can use any other brand of CORR tire and its stock insert for stock. You could use HPI or Losi Strike tires on your Slash or SC10 rims. Hop ups are allowed as long as they were made for that chassis. (Like putting aluminum shock caps on the Slash).

For Mod, anything over 17.5 brushless or the stock motors and you're bumped up. You still have to run the CORR body and CORR stock tires and insterts. You can add hop ups to your hearts desire though.

No 8th scale tires, no after market inserts.

Sounds like ROAR likes headaches. Might work for them and their staff of technical inspectors but on a club level it would be mayhem.

You and Rick are both right in the long run, the first resort will separate them. The problem comes down to the guys who can only afford one RC vehicle. I wouldn't want to put them up against someone running a 10.5. A driver who can run a good line with a 10.5 will stomp a "stock" truck. I'd guess if enough people complain they'll get separated otherwise just run them together. It'll take a couple races to see if there is even a real advantage.
