Radio Control Hobbies & Raceway - Waterbury, CT.


This short course stuff is so funny....Brandon, Mark, and I were talking about it last night, and I kept covering my ears and drown out the convo with "lalalala"

.....As long as there are enough trucks to run, I'll run Mod Truck, I've always liked the Mod Truck class and will continue to run it as long as there's a class for it.
Tom,
You're only running SC, cause you know you can't be competitive in any other class, no matter what you say...

Larry, Epting, Steve,
Don't worry guys, we'll keep the Mod truck class alive at RCHR like we've been doing with the 2wd class, a class that was practically dead and we brought it back.....
I think we should just make 2wd Mod SC an available class anyway tho, as the SC guys improve skillz, it's an area they can step in up without having to hve a whole new vehicle, but it will take some adjusting as SC's get loose, the 2wd's that is once it gets the grunt of a
13.5+.
Also there are quite a few guys with 2SC's also, I'm sure some would choose 2wd Mod SC. Mabye not immediately, but it will grow. Many tracks out there run that as their premier class because of the boom of SC.
Just an idea. Open up the class and let people choose.

I agree about making the17.5 and the mod. 2wd SC 2 different classes instead of the way it is now basically "run what you brung"in the 17.5 class. Being a noob like me I run a stock 17.5 and I know I have a long way to go but it would be nice to run against the top drivers with the same equipment instead of the top drivers with mod trucks.I want to improve myself every time I race but it is hard to judge how much improvement you make because you really are not running against the same equipment.

I run a 17.5 with the basic esc without timing boost option. Speed is not everything.
The trick is driving skills, traffic etc.
In nitro there are two classes buggy and truggy-no matter what motor.
Makes the hobby much easier.
The turn out creates classes and quality of racing.
Just my 2cents.. I'll run mod if a class opens.
I run sct because it is less expensive..
$190 motor/esc, 3200 25c or 5000 30c under $50, truck $200

I think the Unlimited Class should be the one to go away, and get more people to run 2wd buggy....

that's the class we should be pushing for 2011, a class that Really Improve skills....
I've told you that a couple times, and the Mini's have failed to show
Hey Tom Epting...
Are these the bullet connectors we need for you? the little shorties that fit the Traxxas speed controls?
the Traxxas are 3.5mm, or do you need short 4mm?
