With the batteries today it should have no problem except 1/12th does not have a class for 4wheel drive cars.
The race was sponsored for several years by Bolink called the Spring Championships. Back then there was NO ROAR Nationals or any other Nationals at that time.The other big races back then was the Red Lobster race in Melbourne ,Fla Every Febuary there was the Winter Champs in Orlando (1/8 gas and 1/12th ) on International drive. That's enough history for now.
