hankster 10-23-2005, 11:18 PM Loony, What are the rules for 1/18th scale?
Loony 10-25-2005, 09:10 PM Hank...
There really isnt any its pretty much open, foam tires are a must. Bodies are up to you.
The fastest guy so far runs a sprint car body w/ wing on his.
hankster 10-25-2005, 10:27 PM Thanks! Is anyone running 18th touring or pan cars?
racknok 10-26-2005, 10:42 AM Can someone give me directions how to get there? Also what bodies do you use in outlaw mod?
Loony 10-26-2005, 11:48 AM Hank, Ive never seen a 18th touring? do you mean an 18th with a small sedan body? And there is always a pan car class.
Racknok, I-94 to the portage road exit 78 turn right (south) go 4 or 5 miles on Portage road. Hobbysports will be on your right.
We use the Factory works outlaw mod body for 10th scale trucks.
You can see one @ factoryworks.com (http://www.factoryworks.com) HSC carries them in stock also.
hankster 10-26-2005, 04:20 PM Loony,

Loony 10-27-2005, 12:08 AM wow that 18th x-ray is sweet...

BU1SEABEE 09-20-2006, 01:03 PM NOW THAT'S NOT A GOOD IDEA...I can't believe they aren't running oval....koolaid89 there is a track in angola that has oval racing on fri nite and it looks like thats where I'll be racing from now on...
hobbyten 09-20-2006, 03:14 PM don't forget bout cefx they run oval at least once a month and they will be hosting the first brl race in oct. we also have a nice oval track in bay city that will also be running at least once a month. there is also a track in mt pleasant that runs once a month.
IHAUL 09-28-2006, 03:34 PM ok
will there be any oval this year if so what classes and what time and day.
last year the lansing people came down once a month
between mt. p. and detroit.
MKingsley 09-28-2006, 05:23 PM Someone posted that they won't be running oval this year. Too bad - I guess when you give up your racers they give up on you.
