Short Course Late Model Tracks
#16
After you fit up them new wheels & rims, everything will come into proportion. Most of the available 1/8 scale bodies can look good with this set-up. Personally, I think the SC truck tires look dorky on these cars.Losi no longer makes the Slider, so parts are gettin harder to find. We run a pretty strong Slider class at Victory, so we're gonna be affected by it sooner or later I guess.

Thanks! the Losi 1/10 slider tires mentioned by Packerfan all seem to be sold out or discontinued on every site I looked on. I found one place that had them, but only 1 set of 2. Also, the Stalker SS bodies say they are 12" wide...and my SC10 measures out to be around 11, is there anything to do to widen the stance, or does that .5" on each side not look too stupid?
The 13.5 decision came about in response to CRCs rules in the class. That motor & the tires we're using make the class pretty intense. I'd like to see them adopt the class in this form on a broader basis. However, a body & tire change Is all you,ll need to run down there. On a side note, Jeff, I thought this was a blinky class. Guess I need a better speedo LOL

hmmm... I did'nt get that memo. No big deal, mind you, but now I know why I seem to be a tick off the pace. Still diggin it tho.

MR_Casual: did you happen to see if victory had any slider tires? thanks
#22
can i just run 10.5 blinky instead?

Called Victory but the tires were sold. My friend who is using a Losi xxxsc with 12 mm hex kit was wondering about wheels...specifically RPM revolvers. Wld these work? Thinking the ones made for Slash with Hex drives

Progress with the Slider tires and RPM revolver wheels. Waiting on the wrap yet, and to install the spoiler.

You got that body mounted perfect. Now thats what L/M should look like! Cant wait to see it wrapped.

Thanks! Justin from IGIMAGE is doing the wrap, pretty excited to get it. The body actually was alot easier than I thought it would be to fit. So far aside from the wheels/tires and the body...its still a sc10. I dismantled the front bumper, and mounted the bumber base plate upside down, using the existing 2 counter sunk holes. I then trimmed a bumper out of thin lexan and mounted that to the base plate. I ran it as a truck this weekend, and it took 5 minutes to convert back. Any suggestions on a 13.5 motor/esc setup?

Im using a Tekin Redline Gen2, & a Novak GTB. Works fine. That front bumper should work. All you really need is something to hold the nose of the body up. I used an RPM bumper for the T4, & bent the front portion of it level. I then cut a foam bumper to mount on top to hold the body up enuf to keep it from hittin the track. Light weight & effective. I've seen your wrap guys work.Gonna look sharp, I'm sure.
