I might make it over for this, Ray's track is one of my favorite tracks in the area. Going to be hard to pull me away from Horsham though

Either I did not see it, and I am to lazy to search, but will qualifying be spread out over 2 days? Will the 19T class just one day? Need to let the boss know ahead of time.

Hi Andy!

Initial plans are to do two rounds (maybe three depending on turnout and available time) of qualifying on Saturday and one re-sorted qualifier and da MaInS on Sunday.....

Since there are only two "open" classes, the micro Pro class is HPI-based cars only...No M18's....

If you read the old HPI rules, Micro pro is any hop-up designed for the mRS4 including chassis, wheels, tires, suspension, gears...but must be HPI-based and run a HPI body...

Motors were open, non-brushless...and batteries were limited to 2/3 A cells - no lipo...

I know micro is still really popular in this area too, so maybe we can look at making this an open class as well, and score the HPI cars seperatly like the other open classes....hmmmm

Plus, there is a HUGE micro (now, there is a contradiction of terms....lol) race at Pottbelly's the end of October....double hmmmm.....

I'd need more micro guys to chime in and see what they think.

Ray, I think HPI took everything Challenge related off of their site. I would suggest posting the rules here for everyone to see, probably save you a lot of questions/posts.

Now here is my question, is brushless allowed in the Electric Pro class and what are the battery rules. Please say lipo's are allowed.

Hail to da pimpmaster for pulling this event off with sponsorship
