I have this little asian charger I got from Hobby King a few years ago. Does Nickel and LIPO up to 6-cell and cost like $25.00

Here is the charger

Only catch was it took like 4 months via boat to get here

My only complaint with it is it doesn't have a built in 110 power supply, I need to use a stand alone.

Race fees effective next week will be $10.00 for the first class and $5.00 for each subsequent class.

Hi Pat,

13.5, no timing or boost on ESC, everyone is running Slider rears all around although you can run any short course tire that does not have pins.

Smile Sc10.2

Started assembling my SC10.2 today that I picked up from Victory Hobbies.
It is a nice kit.

What class are you planning to race with it over the summer?
I heard there was three of those sold around the same day.
Hopefully, Mod 2wd SCT is on it's way back! Woo Hoo!

The other 2 gentleman (I use that term loosley) that bought the SC10.2's will both have trucks to run mod. I just bought another to run mod with also. I am pretty sure we will at least have one full heat of mod each week.

Well there lies a good question. As you know I struggle producing consistent fast lap times. So not really a mod driver skill set. However being in races with less traffic may do me some good if the mod class is smaller. I also have 3 power plant options. 17.5 Tekin blinky, 17.5 Tekin timing and boosted for mod which really makes it come to life, or put in a Reedy 3300kv RTR set up I have for mod. Any advice is appreciated.

I would suggest starting in stock class with a new truck. Get the feel for the truck and work on getting it dialed in before jumping in mod class. Once you feel your ready, just add some boost to the 17.5 and go from there.

I agree on starting in pro stock first. And get the feel of new truck and work on setup before add more power. And in pro stock you will learn to drive the truck.

I just have to swap electronics. Everything went together nice. Do you know what they intend the long thin foam pad for? Maybe under the battery? Starting with the base set up.
Not sure what I want to do for a servo. I have a Futaba 3305. It has decent torque for a 2wd truck but it is not super fast .20 sec
