Bring everything you have...run it all..

I'm running 2wd/truck, might be persuaded to run 4wd...

My daughter wants to race also,so depending on how much the race fees are, I might have 4 cars out there...

Im still undecided as which class to run myself, i wanted to run the shortcourse but after the triple quad thingamajig im not to sure about the pile ups that's gonna take place. Rather just jump over them with the Mod truck/buggy or 4wd.. But either way im looking to spank EPTING:flaming :

Well Buggy tire choice depends on your driving style, i like lots of bite in the corners so i rock jconcepts DD's or Proline Holeshots, But if your nice like the WILD CHILD BK Bars, so its really all how the track feels and your driving style is. Short course CALIBERS all the way around.

Default Front Tires

Taper Pins, JC Rounders, or Losi (pink) 3 rib....based on how much bite you like up front

For 2wd Buggies:
JC Rounders FR/Double Dees Rear -- Green Compound
Losi Tapers Fr/ Bk Bars Rear -- Pink Compound

For 4wd Buggies:
JC Double Dees all around -- Green Compound
Losi Tapers/Bk Bars Combo works best for 4wd when the track is nice and smooth.

For tomorrow, depending on how dry the track is, Double Dees might be a safe choice.

For Truck:
I like the Double Dees Rear/Proline Edge FR or Double Dees all around, Everyone's raving about the new Calibers or Calipers, haven't tried them myself though, I'll probably do it tomorrow.

Thanks Freddy I've been working hard with setups on that RT5 but at the end of the day it's about taking my time and running an smart race I learned that from (Sleepy Eye) Mark lol he's super fast but he takes his time and still pulls off smooth laps. But it was great running with you, we gotta meet again with them 4WD's and battle out, Tom Carr makes me wanna grabb an Durango like right now.

Larry you might want to check this out then? http://www.rccaraction.com/ME2/dirmo...E6E9EE57CF6424

As for today. Had some problems with a loose motor wire but got it all set for the main. Lots of fun battling with Will, Kevin and Soucy. Also congrats to Proctor for taking down the win and showing us how a sct can run. Also thanks for moving out of the way after you lapped us all to let us battle for 2nd.

All in all a nice smooth day. My only complaint is, it was a trophy race with no trophies. Guess I will have to try and do it again on april 17th.

Oh and if anyone is looking for a 4x4 sct. I just put my slash P.E roller in there for $150

Dude thanks, but they cut that thing dowm like crack.....there really making it affordable but you loose so much of the alloy componets also, Tom Carr drives hard and Thomas (the Bully) drives even harder but he landed that buggy every way but on its roof and he walk away, if that was my Lazer i would had been in the hobby shop all nite long hints that why its long gone.
