It's hard to tell from the website what classes are for oval or road course. Are the 1/12ths on the oval? Also, do you run any classes not listed on the website? Nice looking track by the way.

We run the 1/12 on the road course. However, we do run some 1/12 in a Sportsman Oval class. Its a 7 second class! ;)

We do allow for additional classes, but it takes 4 to run a class. We have a great Pan Car Oval 4 cell stock class going. We also have a great Outlaw Oval Touring car class too. Its a wide open class!!

We run a great show.

We have 4 resturants within walking distance to eat at.

We have Candybars, Drinks, and Chips available at the track.

We have a hobby shop owner that brings a great supply of parts on his cart.

We also have a Kids room set-up with Toys, and a TV w/DVD player!!

Come on down and run some. It will be a good time, with a great atmosphere! :)

Thanks for the reply. Several of us that race at Fulton's on saturday night may make the trek down in a couple of weeks.

Awesome track in Belpre, Ohio, acturally it's just over 2 hours from Beckley, WV (home of BADRC offroad track) Several of us carpet racers have a blast racing at OVRCCC in Belpre, Ohio.. Be sure to experience the Great Atmosphere, great people, and hot RC action!!

See everyone Soon!!!

Rules? Andy dont care about rules..... What pan car classes have you been having on sunday? stock only?

Please check out motor Class Rules:

http://www.ovrccc.com/Rules/class_rules.htm

If Im reading that correctly the 13.5 is allowed to run in the stock class??? WHEW... at our track 13.5 is about 5 laps faster than stock..

At the moment, only 27T stock motors are allow in 4 cell stock, if you guys want to come on down and maybe run a class of strickly Brushless pan car, please do.. I'm sure Tom and gang can accombinate you guys!!

At our track, the guys running the 13.5 in TC road course all seem to run pretty close together.

We are currently testing one 13.5 in the 4 cell pan car class. I think we can figure out what to do with ya if you show. ;)

Thanks!!
Tom

They are running Foam, but our TC Oval class is Open. What ever tires, HP, body. Its pretty much open. We even allow Lipo. Must use a certain Lipo and charge in a Ampo box or Lipo bag!

Pan Car Oval or Touring Car Road course??

Pan Car Oval or Touring Car Road course??

Pan car oval...I dont believe Ive ever seen a 13.5 TC car run yet... But even 12th road the 13.5 has a huge advantage,,

Yeah, come on down for our benefit race next weekend for Old Man Rivers. Looks like it is going to be a great day of racing.

1/12 scale on Road and Pan Car oval run 27 turn stock.

We currently have one person testing the 13.5 to see if it has a performance advantage! ;)

DEPENDS ON THE PERSON RUNNING IT AND HOW THEY ARE GEARING IT... If the car is bad and the gearing is off it will run the same speed.. Ive not been to a track where 13.5 and stock are even remotely close in pan cars... Even Novak admits they are not close.. 17.5 is the closest to stock and when I ran my 17.5 against a very good stock car I ended up beating that car by a lap... If the person running/testing the 13.5 is gearing it like a stocker then thats why they seem even... A 13.5 needs waaayyyyyyyyyyyyy more gear than a stocker.... once you roll it where it likes to be... there is no comparison..

I will be over sometime to check it out...I just am leary of showing up with a 13.5 when I know what the outcome will be... Almost every track Ive ever been to the 13.5 record is pretty much = to the 19t record...

At my home track my13.5 record is over 4 laps faster than the fastest stock run ever laid down on that track.. And we have had some of the best in the business show up to run stock..

Im not trying to be negative.. I want to come over and try the track out...Ive got a lot of time off work coming up so I want to hit up some new tracks.. I just would hate to see a dialed 13.5 car show up and then get a DQ because of the speed difference.. :thumbsup:

We are having the Old Man Rivers Charity Trophy race this Sunday. We had 47 entriees last Sunday. Come on out and support a great cause.

Actually Bill, we have events outside all Spring, Summer and Fall. You should check out Tri-State Crawler, WPAC or NOSTR for people to crawl with. We will have 3-4, or maybe more events down in Williamstown WV. WPAC is based out of Pittsburgh and has quite a few members and several comps right close to you. If you have a good spot for a Comp, we would be glad to add your spot to our summer series. Post up some photos. Please let me know if I can help anymore.

Tom Allen

I will do that, Iam gonna get my friends together that have crawlers and look into some of these other clubs and events,thanks for the information! BILL H.
