Okay trying to get a game plan together but I've noticed I have a problem.

I like a lot of different classes.

2wd buggy mod
Stadium truck
1/8 scale e buggy
1/10 4wd buggy

And on road too

17.5 TC
Minis
1/8 gp
Nitro sedan

And the play in the yard cars
Monster truck
Various mini and micros
1/5 gas

Needless to say I am never done working on cars. Cleaning maintenance repair.
But I really enjoy working on the cars.

Come on guys. Give me some tips suggestions. What ever you got.

Am I insane or is this just part of the normal rc addiction? (Haven't even mentioned the plane gliders quads boats etc)

And yes I do spent a lot of my free money on this hobby, probably too much.

Too many!
In the winter I run,
2wd Mod
4wd Mod
17.5 12th scale

In the summer,
8th scale nitro buggy
Nitro Sedan

It is part of the addiction. I have been in and out of the hobby for over 20 years. I always accidentally find my way back.

FOR CLUB LEVEL:

OUR TRACK ONLY ALLOWS 2 CLASSES PER EVENT SO THAT WE DONT HAVE DRIVERS ON THE STAND ALL NIGHT AND NOT DOING THIER PART FOR CORNER MASHALLING

FOR CHAMPIONS TOUR:

UNLIMITED CLASSES BUT AT 40.00 PER ENTRY IT CAN ADD UP QUICK. IF YOU RUN MORE THAN A COUPKE CLASSES AND GET BACK TO BACK RACES A COUPLE DOLLAR TIP TO A VOLUNTEER IS ALLWAYS WELCOME

FOR INVITATIONALS:

1 CLASS IS TYPICALLY THE ONLY ONE YOU WILL RUN DO TO INCVITES BEING SENT TO PARTICULER DRIVERS FOR THEIR ABILITIES IN EACH CLASS. MARSHALLING IS USSUALLY A ENTRY PAID COVERAGE

3 classes for me:

17.5 Touring Car

21.5 USGT Touring Car

25.5 F1


If you're trying to consolidate your entries, there are 2 schools of thought:

1: Pick the classes that require similar driving styles (IE: all 2wd classes, etc.) this will help you stay consistent on the track and improve your lap times across all of those classes.

2: You can also do the opposite, and pick classes that require substantially different driving styles (2wd stadium truck, 4wd buggy, etc). This will help improve your skill as a driver, and while it may take some laps to get in the driving mindset of the car you are on, it will help in the long run.

Just 1 class for me in onroad, 13.5 blinky. Tried running 2 and 3 classes at one stage but at club level you don't have time to fix repairs aswell as marshall. Gotta marshall!

At a large event with A, B, C classes etc I might run 2 classes. Lots of time between heats/races then.

When I get the chance to run 1/8 offroad it's e-buggy for me only.
Once again it is compulsory to marshall and with only buggy/truggy and e-buggy running there is no time between classes plus I prefer electric anyway.

I run just two classes right now; 17.5 Blinky Sedan and 21.5 Sportsman/USGT Sedan

bmag5000

I have ran every electric onroad and offroad and dirt oval class but 3.
And those are carpet cars like Bolink Legends and Pan Cars and electric 1/8th latemodels on dirt oval.
I did race a touring car on carpet before and I enjoyed it alot.
Also wanted to try RC Drag Racing but never had a track nearby.

My current classes are 1/10 latemodel, Stock Slash, and Open Wheel Modified Short Course.
I only run 2 at a time most of the time. And just 1 class by itself occasionally.
Usually if its one class I usually do better depending on the situation.

3 is about the max I can do personally since I dont' get the run as much as i want to so I need time to make sure I have a good setup.

Outdoor this past season was:

- 1/8 E Buggy
- 1/10 4x4 SCT
- 1/10 2wd Buggy (mod)

Indoor this season is going to be:

- 1/10 2wd buggy (stock probably)
- 1/10 4wd buggy
- 1/10 4wd SCT (track I am looking at this is a big class there)

Next year outdoor, to be honest I may drop the 1/10 4wd SCT depending on what I see for turnout and go with a 1/8 E Truggy instead. 2wd buggy seems to always have turnout but I prefer 4wd for outdoors here so will have to see.

Worse case if I do run 3 again it will be same as before or 1/8 E buggy, 1/8 E Truggy, 1/10 4wd SCT.

Next year most likely:

1/8 E-Buggy
1/10th SCT (4x4 or 2wd haven't decided, need to figure out which class is more popular)

ezlight

Personally,
ebuggy
etruggy
nitro buggy
4wd sct


BUT, I only run a max of 3 of the above at any time. So I usually choose between nbuggy and 4wd sct....But if there isn't a truggy class, I run the other 3.


And I have them on a 3 week rotation on complete rebuilds.
