Moderators, could you please "sticky" this thread? We had over 75 entries last year, our first championship race!

sounds like fun, i might have to come over there to race this one... Any idea what kinda handout for the touring car stock class? is it gonna be a 300 sized?

It will be 300 sized, but mfg. hasn't been nailed down yet.

We had a driver pre-enter the mod on-road clas last year with a vendetta and a 1/12 body. There were several complaints from drivers that the car was to wide for traffic to deal with on a tight track (and rightfully so). We wanted to avoid this happening again.

Here's the Off-road rules.

that driver called the track and described the car and thats where he was told to enter and it was a mcallister 1/18th stockcar body made for the mini t and 18t and he was doing vary well till the box stock car broke in the main butr anyways where would a car like that enter this year? thanks

how bout a mod slider class?

is there a website for the track? how big is the track gonna be?

Trust me, I'm not blaming the driver. This was our first year and there was a lack of communication between myself and the track owner.

You can enter that car in the on-road mod truck class, with the appropriate body.

Not sure about the mod slider class yet. We don't really want two slider classes, as we are running oval first in the day and on-road afterwards. If we have enough requests, the rule could be changed.

MiniT18: the track is 32' * 65'. I'll put up some pics soon.

so this is a 2day race this year?

Question, is the vendetta ST ok to drive in mod truck with the stock body???and 2nd, will there be jumps in the course for mod truck or is it a straight up road course. 3rd hey hERBIE, missed yoiu at hobbie sports sun the 14. we will be back up there on sun. the 28, hope to see you there!

ok 420 i;ll be there i went to this race last year and had a blast they ran a great show

Please note changes to the flyer and class rules.

Ron 86: Mod Slider class added. However, there is a 50 entry limit for the oval racing. We need time to tear down and set up the road course.

one18thscalerac: Yes, Saturday is oval and on-road. Sunday is off-road. Thanks for the props.

420 Tech R/C: The Vendetta can race with other truck classes. We have a truck/buggy class on Saturday's road course, then seperate truck and buggy classes on Sunday with the jumps.

Pictures coming later this weekend.

I'm happy to announce the addition of a new sponsor, Team Exotek! We're very excited to have them on board along with Castle Creations, who gave us tremendous technical support last year. Thanks again, guys!

mod slider class awsome can we enter by mail this year

Ron:

Not a problem. e-mail me and I'll give you the adress. We are only accepting Postal Money Orders by mail.

no problem thanks and one18th ravs about your track to anyone that will listen here in mich pls send him the address also thanks

Ron, you'll have to e-mail me for that address. I can't seem to contact you.

Okay guys, we've taken your request and here it is: Mod Recoil !.

We have decided to forgo the stock class, as most seem to want brushless and there is no strong stock class here in town.

6 cell NiMh, or 7.4V lipo, open motor.

Flyer and rules will be updated later. Have at it, fellas.

badsign heres my email jeffburton1fan at yahoo.com

Gotcha...

any pics of the track?

Here you go. Track is 33' by 63' with 2 17' driver stands on opposite sides. The layout in January will be tighter than the one you see here.

Did you eliminate this class??

1. Stock 4wd Touring
WHEELBASE: 150mm Max
WIDTH: 108mm Front/ Rear Max
MOTOR: Hand Out Brushed Motor TBA
TIRES: Any
BODY: 2 or 4 Door TC
BATTERIES: Nimh 5 Cell 2/3a limit
No Buggy or truck conversions

This is the class I had planned on entering

Thanks.......Scooter

No. Stock 4WD is for 1/18th scale touring cars (M18, MRS4). The recoil is 1/14th scale, hence the seperate class.

That's good ...I must have mis-read the postings......I'll be there with a couple of guys from town for the stock 1-18th class......

looking forward to it...

Anybody running Recoils on a wkly basis???

I think a few guys are just starting out here in Indy, but nothing consistent. I'd call the shop at (317)787-SLOT

are you guys running a 2wd 1/18 class for scalpels/brp sc18's. That would be AWESOME if you did!! If not a class would we be able to run a scalpel in another class???never mind I answered my own question by opening the rules link on the first page!!! OOOPS!!!!!

Yeah, we ran 2wd with 4wd last year in "unlimited". We're seperating them this year

could i get the address to mail my entry in email me at one18thscaleracer@yahoo.com thanks

In the stock 4wd mini touring class, can you buy extra handout motors? any word on the mfg? what is the latest entrys can be turned in?

Thanks for you time,
CD

The Motor will be the Venom Fireball. You'll receive one free with your entry, and each additional motor will be approx. $10. Entries can be turned in any time, but sooner will get you a reserved pit spot.

Does anyone Know if there will be any sponsers there ?,such as losi,since saturday ther will be two classes of them.Any Event T-shirts being made ??

Exotek and Castle Creations will be sponsoring the event. There is a possibility of more sponsors on the way. There were T-shirts last year, but I'm not in the loop on that decision for this year. I'll check and let you know.

Start sending those entries! First 50 are given a reserved pit space. Also, let me know if you need to pit next to someone in particular.

What about a stock 2wd onroad class? It might get some more pancar guys to make the trip if they can run 2 classes. I'd be in for both.

Onroad or Oval?

I was talking about stock pancar onroad not oval, but you might get some BRP'rs to come out for oval also. I race both but prefer onroad. I woul race all 3 if available. With the BRP cars you can run either with just a slight change in tweak. :thumbsup:

The pan cars were the lowpoint of last year's turnout. We decided that, unless there were early requests for it, we would keep it off the schedule. As it stands right now, our largest class is Recoil, which didn't exist last year!

what is the cost of this event?
any shock or spring changes allowed in the slider stock class, or is it what comes with the kit?

First entry is $25, $15 for each additional entry

Stock Slider class allows aftermarket radio, esc, and servo.
Motor, tires, body and chassis must be box stock. 6 cell NiMH only.

Mod Slider is wide open other than body. 7.4V LiPo limit.
Modify the chassis any way you want.

If all the talk I've heard is true, we're expecting a big slider turnout.

We will have T-Shirts. Once I get one, I'll post a picture.

Okay racers, we're only one month away from the Midwest's biggest little R/C race, The Indiana Micro Championship.

I'd also like to announce a new sponsor to the program, Team Scream Racing. John of TSR has offered to supply us with several door prizes for the weekend, and it is greatly appreciated

Our first 50 entries have guaranteed reserve seating, so get in while you can.

and more importantly have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

Speaking of News Years day,since Indy slots isnt going to have a news years day race,There is going to be a trophy race down in New Castle at the moose lodge new years day,and they will be running a class of Sliders for anyone interested..doors open at 8am and racing at 12 noon,there will be trophies.!!!!!!!!!
i think its $20 to enter.
Anyone from Indy going,just take St Rd 3 north through New castle to the the North side,you will go under a train bridge over pass,the next Light is New York Ave,turn right(east) and go about a 1/2 mile ,..Moose lodge on right,pull into parking lot stay to the right and go back around to the right. (building gets taller its a gym) you will see all the cars,and just go in the class doors. Hope to see some people from Slots there.
By the way yesterday at Indy slots was awsome we had 31 sliders,A-thru D mains.

I swore off oval racing awhile ago, but at the rate the sliders are taking over, I may have to re-consider. I've got a lot of good memories at New Castle, great people to race with. Thanks for the invite, hope to see you on the 19th and 20th!

well now I got to get a slider.....since hardly no BRP cars will be there

Hm, I'd think a Scalpel would be more appropriate, Doctor.
