MINI BRAWL FOR IT ALL (Sept 11, 2010)
Ok, hear we go if you love to race 2wd and or 4wd mini then this is exactly what you need. Two classes 2WD mini (light weight) and 4wd mini (heavyweight). One trophy for each class and bragging rights until the next Brawl takes place. There will be top notch drivers coming from as far as Connecticut to run in this race and lets not forget some of the intense top notch drivers in our area such as Tamiya 2wd mini champ Ray K, and HPI sponsored driver Todd Marshall. Also without the Maryland 8 I wouldn't have been inspired to promote this race. We have sponsors (Team Scream Batteries, Castle Creations, Exotek Racing, Sweep Tires, Skyrocket Batteries, and HPI Racing) that have stepped up to support the mini class that is rapidly growing. I appreciate their support as well as all the racers. We will be giving out door prizes and have lunch for the racers. The man to announce this great event will be none other than Tedd "GREEN GREEN GREEN" Brown.
The flyer states that the 4wd main starts will be tone, but after consideration we have changed it to a rolling start with a pace car with working lights. The body rule has also changed. Initially we were running old school bodies but after testing the old school bodies we realized they were not wide enough to protect the chassis. The NEW body rule: you can run any body that is a non-1/10 touring car body (we have all been racing long enough to know what this means), it has to be realistic and an actual race car. Wing rule is still the same.
This year since we are just starting out we let things kinda slide, but for the Brawl we can not let anything slide. So, make sure your whip is ready to rock.
Any questions pm me.

2wd tire change
2wd mini drivers
After consideration Ray K and I thought that if you were allowed to run any mini tire that you could save your very expensive tamiya tires for the TCS races that are held through out the year. So you may run any mini tire on your 2wd coopers.

i say nice things and thats the response. I thought i was in the track thread for a moment.
James, many of us in the 2wd buggy group have done something similar to what you have done with this mini touring car thing. We've tired of tracks closing us out with 1/8scale layouts, or cuttin tracks down to appease/sell SCTs, long travels, reduced practice due to either oval or nitro practice/warmups, and just plain tracks closing. So the idea was for the 2-3 guys who have backyard tracks to say ok we're meeting there, have a backyard BBQ and run. So thats been the deal for last couple mths, show up hang out, bs, bench race, run 5000s out and have a ball. slowest fast lap buys lunch. Sometimes its real good to go do your own thing and get back to the egg if you will. I see your achieving similar rewards for your efforts.
