Do you guys run open or track day style events too for either course and if so, would my old "rescue" Stampede 2wd be allowed on it? Wouldn't mind getting it running again and someplace with parts would be nice.

On the front will it be the very narrow with no foam like the turf? Or the standard width front with or without foam if you had to guess? And what about compound?

Any questions on foams for offroad get a hold of Rick Sefrod. He is the offroad foam master.......

We are going to be testing tires here soon and can give a answer in the next few days.
But if i had to guess for rubber tires probably clay and normal fronts.
Foam tires just the way they come out of the package no truing or cutting allowed.

And I am assuming both will require the sauce? Like me.

That probably will never happen.
But i can tell you SXT is the only sauce allowed on either track.
As far as the foams go on the off road track it seems sauce and wipe. No soaking required.

Hopefully the foams wear well. I had some for my little vendetta and they did pretty well as far as wear amd chunking were concerned.
