Since this is the NCT Thread, I assume you are talking about Gas Truck in this Series? If so, You can "run what ya brung" as long as it meets the NCT rules. See the first post on this thread for more info.

Les is trying to find a Server to put the site on. They still have the website and the Domain they just need a server to Host it. I tried to put on mine but I have mine on my cousins Server at his work and I wasnt able to get this one on. Best I can do is add it on the back half of my site which would be something like www.axiommotors.com/NCT or something like that.

Les maybe talk to Ron at RC Plus he has his own in house server and may help you out.

Axiom is a Proud Sponsor this year of this race and I will attend as many races as I can (hopefully all) but family comes first.

Nope, not run what you brung. Must be a 1/10th scale nitro stadium truck such as the Losi XXX-NT, Associated RC10GT, or the Mugen MST-1. They must run .12's, like what your buddy already has (the TR is a great engine, very smooth, reliable). No .15's or .18's.

Default track conditions

The dirt at RCCCW is soft loam, tires have a very very long life here. the track does get rutted up during long mains, that just adds to the fun. Pretty much any compound works. definatly not a 1 tire 1 compound track. Med soft comodos work well. but comodo 2s, crimefighters, whoops, dirty harrys, steppins, knuckles etc... all work well too.
Tires easily last 5-6 race weekends. more usually.

hope that helps.

If anyone is looking for a ride to the Hank this year (from Seattle/Tacoma area) please let me know. Have big van, will travel. I'm looking for someone to share gas and lodging $$ with.

Thanks,
