Im not shure, I only ran brushless on the oval track last year. It should give you a good starting point in your manual. Thanks for the help on hobby talk.

No problem, I've got that car ready to go and i am going to build a 27t car as well so i am ready to go either way based on turnout. NiMh only in stock? If so is there a cap on MAH? I dont have any good race packs at the moment and looking to buy a couple new.

Thanks,

Yes it will be allowed till we can split that class up. I know its new so it could take a few weeks. I was running the same lap times as last season. I dont think its any faster. :thumbsup:

Hi guys. Sunday was a great time. We had some great racing in the A-main. To bad for the first turn fiasco or Dayton and Tim might of battled it out. I'm not sure what caused that . I do know we were not exactly set for the start in order of qual. IT was still fun though.

Dayton, are you coming south Friday? If you need any help just let me know...
