With the LM body, it's tough to get down to that 1500g limit with everything balanced. That said, it's a fun car to drive. It drives heavy but to me it has a realistic feel to it. I dig mine.

I use the Schelle pistons (AE machined). Just use the lower kit washer, this is recessed for the shock shaft to mate with so everything stays centered. Then just use a buttonhead screw on top. Worked...

Same. I added 50g and actually a touch more to bring it a few grams over. The extra weight doesn't hurt the rwd cars.

With the M08, I wanted the side-to-side weight distribution that a full size...

Those are the belted USGT tires. I'm not sure anyone has run them at our club. Generally, we use the unbelted tires at H30. Our rules say "Gravity USGT premounts".

Anyone who can’t follow a simple rule for a Wednesday night club race is a special kind of island-worthy. Pretty cut and dry. 1.8. Done.

The class structure/rules are the same as TCS, but they'll match you up with the class that's closest to your car.
USGT=GT2
Stock TC=GT1
and so on....

Club racing is lax and fun.

Points are updated as of today! Our class champs are all-but sewn up, but podium spots are still there for the taking. Hard to believe there's only two races left!

I get that. I think part of the reason we've gained a few new racers with this class is it takes away the perceived "motor of the week" talk (whether true or not) and allows the new guys to just show...

We run on an indoor carpet track with a 80' straight. Not large by any means, but the Hobbywing Justock 17.5 is a fixed timing motor, which puts it in line with any current 21.5 motor. The advantage...

I'm also running far over any minimum I've heard on here (partly because the Justock is a pig).

There is very little, if any, difference between one motor to another, which is part of the reason we settled on the Justock. Speeds are equal, and the value is right ($68.00 retail).
