who is racing these and can they race in the same class as the rc18? Or is this just a separate class of mini pan car?

Come to Beltran, we don't care. We had a Scalpel there last week, have a look at the video.

Thanks buddy but you know only Saturdays. I have been researching all these 1/18 but you know I am more familiar with pan cars and this seems to be up my alley? Still researching.

Yes I just checked it out. The scalpel looks kind of small next to your car?

Yeah, they are about the size of the M18. They do have potential to be pretty hooked up though.

Yea I just got back from youtube and saw some wicked, hooked scalpels with mamba sidewinders. The one at beltran looked stock. I'll have to hit Beltran and see one in person before I can even make a decision. Like to always check things out in person before making any decisions.

Beltran's should have all the spare parts as well. Depending on where you live, a lot of hobby stores around the LA area can order the Scalpel for you if they don't have it in stock. Shipping is usually next day. We are also planning a Scalpel series. Feel free to PM, email, or call me if you have any questions.

It's still in the talks but last I heard was Beltran's. If for some reason not Beltran's, then it will be local (around LA/OC). The concept of it will be really fun and everyone comes out a winner.

Working on the dates. It is hard to coordinate the dates when there are so many other events going on. The 1st race at Beltran's is looking like Saturday, May 30th which is a month away.
