DJ the Losi is much easier to drive and set up, its got more shock location holes then the AE so that helps too. me and Steve have been running them all winter at Bumps and Jumps and Motorama, The Losi seems a lot more planted and corrects well. and the over all quality of the truck seems good, everything is very tight. if you get one just make that your 17.5 truck and put the stock electronics in your AE lol. you going to be running at the bowl this year?

yup this is adam lol, thanks! it was a blast you should have came with us. we will be running 1/8 at the bowl too so you can run it all at the bowl! electric or nitro? were going to be making the track wider so it will fit 1/8 easily. were getting into 4wd SC trucks too. i just got the new losi 4wd last week, they are going to be fast, i had it out on sat and its fun on the track. planning on running off road during the day and oval under the lights every weekend instead of switching weeks. i believe the "twilight oval" series will be cheaper too but those are details i believe are still working on.

I couldn't take the time off work to get there during the week...I checked some pics from facebook pages, and youtube...Looked like a blast!
I ordered those toe in parts for the SC10, but I'm definitely picking up the Losi...I use to run a couple Matt Francis edition XXXTs a few years back down at Family...Loved those track magnets..Still sorry that I got ride of them...If the XXX-sct plants and handles like the truck it's based off of, than it's a no brainer for me...My lady will be racing a lot more this season as well with the Blitz. Im just tired of changing diff outdrives in that truck. Everything about the tracks sounds great...That's a good idea to run offroad during the day, and the oval under the lights...It looks to be a busy rc racing spring and summer..That's a good thing.

the track is hard pack with a little loose stuff on the top. a soft compound pin tire works pretty good. i am going to try out the Jconcepts DD's. goosebumps work good and AKA enduros seem to be good too. super softs work good but don't last very long. med last a while but don't hook up the best. depending on your setup and driving style the Jconcepts subcultures work good if you slide the back end through turns. i loved those tires on the dirt oval last year.

Track will change before the beginning of the season when put it through it's face lift. I expect the track will end up similar to other tracks in the area... hard packed clay track with minor dust, but who knows. I picked up some Subcultures to run on my 4wd Losi truck, and plan to get Sevens on my buggy and truggy.
#25
Im gonna bring my T4 for some mod action this year. what kinda turnout do you guys get for 2wd truck? I may run 1/8 buggy also if I can get it together.
#26
We would really like to have a truck class, though, so please come out, and if the turn out is low, and if you don't have an issue running with the short course, we can put you with them.
It's a chicken and egg problem, ya know
