I remember you Carl if you had some more time with that car you would have been alot closer, I've seen you drive in years past.
I can't run regionals anymore unfortunately. I will be around at the Seattle round to help and tech cars. I may come down to TA regional with Ray and Becky to hang out but it will be tight I am coming down for Reedy and then off to Colorado on that tuesday after Reedy.
I will also be down for NATS rumor is there will be a past champs class to run in. If the track is open I will be down early just to hang out and run for the heck of it.

I had a 5lb FWD for awhile noone dared try to hack(haha)
Sounds fun the body looks like a hoot to run a series with

CL - stick with your 1/60th scale cars, the 1/10th scale will be a handful for you.
Carl are you ready for this series?

That was the same with us we ran a 5oz penalty the first series and the same people always won. The weight just did not build quick enough. When we went to 10 you had to really drive and not get touched just to keep in the top 5 so it really did the trick we based it
10-1st
9-2nd
8-3rd
7-4th
6-5th
-1-6th
-2-7th
-3-8th
-4-9th
-5-10th
min weight was 2lb9oz based on the lightest car without the big wad of Ti cash spent on it, or a box stock car. We also run 3 races per/day with the penalty for each run so if you won all 3 heats you were 15oz heavier at the end of the day.
It was great fun to run, we also ran in 2-car teams with the same livery for the team
10-1st
9-2nd
8-3rd
7-4th
6-5th
-1-6th
-2-7th
-3-8th

When using a hotter motor, not everybody can drive the cars safely. With the 21, everybody will have a chance to really show their driving skills. There's more to the 21 motor rule, it will be posted soon.
MD - Im still waiting for the mounted tires to arrive. Last time I check it is coming by middle of April. So most likely this series will start by the 4th week of April or May.

I recall P-diddy saying that, "...this series is open to any 190mm electric touring car."
