Thanks Robert, I will talk to you about this soon. I'm just finalizing the rules for this series.
Ling - come on down and race with your old buddies here in So. Cal. I will talk to Billy at Speedworld if he wants to do this series too.

Here's some of the things that are considered for the series:

21T Yokomo Motor
New design Pre-glued Treaded Tires
Weight penalty for top three racers every race (to make it more exciting)
Raffle prizes each raceday
plus more to come...........

Suggestions are welcome!

O - you're close enough. I always see you here.
Linger - that's what you get for moving away from So. Cali. All the fun stuff are always here in LA.haha. We'll try to do it there up north. Just be patient.

This series is open to any 190mm electric touring car.

Why 21T Motor? How about something faster?

Paul we run a Tamiya FWD series up here in Seattle and we found to be effective it had to be 5-10 oz penalty per run
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

Dan you gotta get one of these bodies. They handle suprisingly well! And they are almost as cool as running Tamiya bodies in real race conditions. People thinking that you'll be running a Stratus2 or Alfa and then you throw down with a Semi! Honk Honk...outta the way or your gonna get plowed! hahaha

Chin you can't handle something faster!

Dan how's it going? I ran mini (yellow/blue S2000) with you at TCS at Tamiya HQ last Nationals. Are you running this year?
