Some clarification on the rules due to some questions.
For the Buggy Stock/Spec class.
At this time, ONLY the Duratrax Vendetta and Associated RC18B, at this time, are allowed in this class.
BOTH vehicles Must run the factory stock speed control, servo and motor. NO modifications to the motor in any way. You CAN NOT take the motor apart. The motor MUST have the sticker on it that it came with.
MUST use factory stock tires. NOW, if the tires wear out, YES, you may replace them BUT ONLY with the same exact tire that came with the car. As for rims, they MUST be the EXACT same size as the rims that came with the car.
No modifications to the factory stock chassis.
Factory a-arms only.
You MUST use the factory stock shocks. You may change the shock oil and springs but you can only use the shocks that came with the car.
5 or 6 Cells 2/3A Type Battery Packs ONLY (7.2 volts max)
Must stock buggy body and wing
In ALL OTHER CLASSES, again, aftermarket a-arms must be used but they may not make the vehicle wider than designed by the manufacurer.
In designated classes, an aftermarket chassis may be used but it may not make the vehicle longer than intented by the manufatrurer.
Mini Monster classes. Again, the minimum tire size is 2.5 inches. NO Maximum tire size is listed has been listed. NO FOAM TIRES.
PLEASE email me with any questions & I hope this helps everyone out.
