Al Dente-sounds like you've been a busy beaver The weekly podium stickers are such a cool idea And the CORRC Club Stickers as well a cool idea
So I guess if an "old guy" likes to run 1/12th scale then NIMH are the perfect fit

have any of you guy's seen or ran that 17.5?


Syndrome-hope to see you at one of the upcoming club races, good luck on your move hope it's smooth and easy

I agree, on the stickers and look forward to seeing them, Hey I might even get one or two!!

I was thinking about getting a 17.5 to play with.

See everyone Sunday!

Anyone know if ROAR is planning on pushing brushless all of the way into 1/12th scale? I dont think they will quite yet...

ok fellas. this is the only way i can say this. since preregistration is going so slowly. the club will not be buying trophies for any class that does not have people pre registered. as of right now, the only 2 classes that have entries are 1/10 stock rubber, and 1/10 19t foam.

so lets make sure that you all bring those registrations to the race on sunday. we want everyone to have a shot at a trophy.

Grenade: maybe you should try a crawler motor in your 1/12...

Seriously though, if lipo is a go for next year carpet, the crawler and 7.4 v. may be the ticket for "stock", and the 13.5 or 17.5 as a 19t... I'll still be running a 3.5 though.

Mario; great job again. also, you have a private message.

Why not?

The conversion to brushless in 1/12 will probably pretty much mirror TC. Where the problem comes in is LiPo where the lack of "adjustability" comes into play. We'll be stuck with either 3.7v or 7.4v. Go ahead and figure THAT one out...

I'll be registering for either 19T or Stock 1/12th Scale....what is everyone else interested in for 1/12th scale?

7.4v LiPo with a 3.5 Brushless all the way....I think I've decided it's time for some new parts and a new chassis...

You make a good point there though, because then there would have to be different motors allowed for people running NiMH and people running LiPo...or else everyone would run LiPo for the most part...

If you really want to break your stuff let me drive it ...

maxamps has a 6000mah Lipo saddle pack with my Speedpassion 2.5R might do the trick!

Rev - I'll see your rock crawler motor and raise you a 1/10 scale pan car, 2cell lipo with a 6.5. Without a wing it should fly!!!

Count me in for 1/12 Stock, 1/12 19turn and 13.5 Rubber Tire for the Classic!
Yes I know 3 classes will require much work, but I beleive I can Hire Bull Dog to help on the touring car, and Mr. Darkside on the 1/12 scale.

I'll bring the entry down or E-mail it to Mario on Thursday. Deduct the entry from my tab!!

Also, save me a "Full Sheet" of silver and black CORRC decals and a Corally applicator bottle and metal can of Jack as well. Seems like I must have loaned out a bunch of Jack over the last two races!!

Keith sent me this cool link to rcsignup.com. I have added the CORRC track and also posted info about our upcoming Hobbytown classic. When you get a chance, go sign-up eventually we might build a paypal account so that we can have people sign up online for our events.

Later,
