I will be there. Ran there the last 2 weeks in stock slash and it has been a blast. Cool track and great people, first time racing off-road. I just now need a partner for the enduro. How long is the enduro?

Is there anyway to get a clarification for the stock slash rules for everyone? I know that lipos can be used. There are some pretty quick "stock" slashes, I would hope that it is limited to 2s, not 3s. Maybe a 5000mah limit to the lipos, stock tires etc. What are the rules on chassis upgrades? It might be a good idea to clarify this and tech the top 3 finishers to keep things in the sprit of "stock" slash before it gets out of control. It is a great class as long as the rules are set and everyone is having fun!

Thanks,
Justin

The enduro will be partnered up by a drawing after you enter. And as for the rules, stock tires, motor and im not really sure on the battery. Did you get third last night justin? if so, i ended up 5th or 6th.
RJD is a great place to race, great food, and good people. I hope too see alot of people for the slash bash. thanks.

I was at the Slash Bash last year and unfortunately I won't be able to attend this years. For anyone looking for a great event that weekend, defiantly head out to RJD!

This is for the stock class, not enduro:
Slash, Strike or SC10 is legal
Stock Servo, Motor and ESC must be used
Stock Tires Must Be Used but you can mix tires between mfgrs, ie you can run Slash Tires on a Strike for example. I haven't tested the SC10 tires at RJD yet but the Slash tires work well on both the Slash and Strike that I have run there.
2S LiPo MAX


Enduro
Slash only
Stock Servo, Motor and ESC must be used (any radio/receiver)
Stock Tires Must Be Used
2S LiPo Max

Partners are picked by blind draw. The enduro will be after qualifying is over. There will be 20 total drivers. The Top 10 drivers from the standard Slash Class qualifying will draw names and be matched up with one of the slower 10 drivers. This way you get a good balance of talent on the team, you prevent "super teams" from going out and spanking the field and you hopefully get some sharing of information between the fast guys and slower guys that helps everyone.

Ghandi, please feel free to correct anything I got wrong here. I think I got just about everything right from what we were all talking about Friday night.
