If you have an SC8 class (nitro/electric combined), I'll come out and race my SC8e. I think the race directors were saying they had six or seven people interested... so only a few more and we'd have a class!!

Nothing as much fun as a 1/8 short course truck!
If you are thinking about getting one... do it! You'll be really glad you did!!!

haha No I dont think so I thought he was asking just in general about the club race coming up this weekend based on his other posts....

There will be no T4 or 1/8 buggies or Truggies at the Northwest SC race haha

Soncho it may be best if you have any questions regarding the track for club racing etc and not specifically for this NW SC nats race then use http://www.rctech.net/forum/northwes...-pasco-wa.html
thread we have the club stuff there

Well,with the release of about 6 different tires in the last week I am not sure.
the PROLINE m3 bowtie front with the caliber m3 rear on the sc10 was stuck like glue last week,but the AKA,and the JC tires look good,give us a couple of weeks and check back with us we have two upcoming club races

What is the status of the SC8 class and why no response? This question has been asked and interest expressed more than a half-dozen times on this thread? Is there enough or not? what is the count?

Folks need to know if there are enough racing classes to drive a couple of hundred miles.

Thanks

At last check Darren had received 5-7 emails about it and I think maybell will get us to that magic number, Darren has been out of town on a Vacation so there has been no communication for a week or so between all of us. I would say that there is an HIGH % chance of running the SC8 class as a combo nitro/electric and probably more after everyone has a chance to talk this weekend

I agree, Id say lets combine electric and nitro SC8's and just make it something like 5 min quals and main so it doesnt slow down the program a bunch.

SC8 class will be electric and Nitro.

6 min Quals and a 15 min main.

We still need 10 to race this class even though I have it on Wheretorace.

Also i have not had 10 people respond to me that they will come. About only 6. So if you want the class get signed up.

Production SC8's only. No scratch built or conversions.
