Just Curious....how long have you guys been in R/C and did you run 1/10th back in its hey day?

There are very good reasons why 1/10th gone from cost of tires to just being to fast for most people.

The last time i ran 6 cell stock 1/10th I was turning faster lap times than the Mod Sedans. I talked to Josh Cyrul about 1/10th mod at last years Snowbirds and he said the cars were just too fast. He said he could only think of 20 guys in the world that could drive a mod 6 cell 1/10th car safely. You couldn't race heads up as the slightest bump would launch the car 10 feet into the air.

If the class has any chance of coming back it has to be with 4 cells to make it driveable.
