Default Jacob's RC18T Spec Class Carpet Racer

This is my sons RC18T spec class oval carpet racer. In this spec class at the local track, any 1/18th scale can run as long as the suspension is fully operational (no using turnbuckles to eliminate the shocks), 6 cell battery packs are used, and you must use a stock AE 370 motor. This makes for some pretty tight racing that comes down to suspension tuning and drivers skill. If you have the opportunity to race on a carpet oval, you’ve got to try it out. It is much more fun and intense that you would expect.
