Hey guys, It's that time again, The USOWC's are over and Da'Birds are right around the corner.

To answer a big question right up front. Just like lastyear, The class is limited to Custom Works GBX Enforcers only.

Heres the flyer, http://www.snowbirdnationals.com/snow2008/sprints.jpg (http://www.snowbirdnationals.com/snow2008/sprints.jpg) Big news this year is the class will be run with 4 cells and Novak brushless 10.5 motors, Should be faster than lastyear even with the cell reduction. Remeber less cells is less weight,

Before you say what? Look at the flyer, Novak will be there to help those that need it and there will be a limited number of LOANER esc/motor systems available.

Come on, Break off two cells from those killer race packs you already own, Pack your bags and head off to sunny Florida for a week of fun and racing.

I usually do not make predictions but in this case I'll say that there is no chance that there will be 6 inches of ice covering the ground like there is right now in some parts of the midwest. Come on down cause just incase I'm wrong, I'll buy everyone in the Sprintcar class a beer.

Spec tires and no motor worries? Count me in

if i empty the ice machine to a total of 6 inches does that count?

What is legal a gearbox or direct drive?

Are you going to be able to put enough gear on with 4 cells?We run 6 cells on an 140' track and we are geared at 100/45-50.

What is legal a gearbox or direct drive?

gearbox!

BIG BIG pinions...small small spur!

78 - 62 Yea Baby!!!

76-65...max you'll ever see!


we do have some testings to do next week...if final ratio is a problem...we might propose a gear rule!

how about a class...with...tire...motor...and gear rule!

Eric

Real sprint cars finally. Wings are for airplanes lol

Eric - A gear ruling would be awesome! and congrats on your win at the USOWC!....no more stock for you....hahaha

i guess its all over for me (stock racing)....after last year win at the birds....and good results at the last usowc...lets move on...

Steve and i will do some testing this week-end(roll-out)...we'll see how it goes

Eric

Eric, Doug beat me to it, Congrats on your USOWC's win. I'll gladly let you lap me at Da'Birds, Several times again. :rolleyes:

Eric - Steve and yourself gotta run sprint car at the Birds', will be interesting to see what new mods you have made to your car.. ;) and 10.5/4 cell should be a blast :thumbsup:

Eric, Have you had a chance to do any speed/gear testing with the 4c/10.5 combo yet? I decided to run it since you'll need some traffic practice for your other classes anyway.

Eric, you have a PM.

Is there a Spec Foam tire for the Bird's?
I would love to race one of them, have no interest in the area.
Good Luck to the Racers
Dave

Yes tires are included!
