Hmm...



very disappointing...

the title says Micro ... but you are all talking about 1/18 scale...

That is not Micro

That is Mini...

I know where talkin semantix here... but

I have 2 badd azz 1/24 scale (Micro) rally cars I thought I might be able to race in a real race... but no... i would have to use my Rc18r's..

very disappointing...

I thought that 1/24th scale would be "Mini-Z" size class racing. They do have "real racing" with that scale.......just check em out on some of the Mini-Z posts here in RC Tech. I'm sure you will find exactly what you are looking for. Good luck.

Here are the rules for this year, just about the same as last year. Chris will have a class if there is enough to run it. The minimum for a class should be around 6 entries. Anything less than that he will decide on it.

The stock motors this year will be the Ammo 2650 from the ECC.
