Some thing we are looking at for the Pro 10 class, Please remember we are still in the planning stage 200mm, 4cells, Gt bodies

Lipo in Mod Sedan???

They are ROAR legal so they were legal at the recent ROAR Carpet Nationals and will be legal for the upcoming asphalt nationals. They are also legal in the Open classes at the Reedy Race of Champions.

Lipo in Mod Sedan???

Yes lipo is legal in touring car, would also be legal if they made them for 1/12.

you can run them in stock,pro stock, and mod.

you can look at the roar list of legal batteries those will be legal at the champs as well.

???? you can run lipos in stock sedan at the Champs????

y not?? a lot of guys have been using them in stock just because you only need one pack.

y not?? a lot of guys have been using them in stock just because you only need one pack.

Thats fine. I only run offroad so all news onroad is new news to me. ;)

yes lipo is legal we will follow mostly the same rules as roar.they must be on the approved list and of course hard cased like the orion lipo's.

As far as lipo bag ...you pit in your room the choice is for you to make I can't make it for you but of course be safe whatever you do.

This is what i think should happen according to the classes for cleveland

12th masters - 17.5/27t
12th stock - 17.5/27t
12th modified - 10.5 and down

FOAM:
tc stock - 17.5/27t
tc modified - 10.5 and down
tc masters - 17.5/27t
Pro 10 - 13.5/4-Cell

What are the limits on lipos for cleveland....is there going to be a standard battery? For instance
3200?
3600?
4800?
Are they all going to be legal???

as it stands we will allow what roar has made legal to keep it simple:thumbsup:

from what I have seen in my own testing lipo's last longer but I still love my normal 4200 and 4600's for punch.

ok, sounds good

What about a super stock class (13.5)? Go 100% brushless Mr. Bill!!!! Make it happen!!!!!

What about a super stock class (13.5)? Go 100% brushless Mr. Bill!!!! Make it happen!!!!!

Sounds like a good idea. 5 weeks after the event it will be the only approved ROAR superstock option.

What about a super stock class (13.5)? Go 100% brushless Mr. Bill!!!! Make it happen!!!!!

We like this idea also hint hint lol We are sorting out the what classes that will be ran now so we can get that info out to you guys asap.

Maybe a Pro 10 - 13.5/4-Cell Class?
I might be able to handle that.

Maybe a Pro 10 - 13.5/4-Cell Class?
I might be able to handle that.I think you'd have a better chance of handling it if you ran 3 cell and a 17.5 non-sintered rotor!:p

No the mains will not be ran the same as years past we will not be running all the A mains at the end which helps alot as far as getting done faster.

"YEAH" says the announcer and music guy!!!!!!!!


I've been asked this question four times in the last three days so I thought I should put it here so Mr. Bill or Bill941 can respond officially.

"The classes have been listed with Brushless limits. Does that mean that the US Indoor Champs is 100% Brushless this year?"

yes it is 100 percent brushless.

yes it is 100 percent brushless.


well, if you dont have a brushless setup you can race?

Yes, correct. There will not be any brushed motors this year, brushless only.

We can run both in Mod right.

CANT WAIT!!!!!

Some rule changes Dealing with bodies in the Foam TC Classes

the only two bodies allowed in TC Foam will be

Parma Part #10222 which I didn't see a link on parma's site for it yet but it will be up soon I would imagine.

and Protoform Part #1497-00
http://www.prolineracing.com/p-572-r9-f.aspx

Rubber tire may use any body on the roar approved list.

The posted rules will be edited to show this change.Hope that helps clear everything up.

im loving that R9-F

Tough choice now, some people say the R9-F handles like the DNA and i never really liked the DNA, but the R9-F looks soooo sweeeet, and now we have to run either the R9-F or the Mohawk 2. which im assuming that the Mohawk 2 hadles just like the Mohawk and the Alfa romao, and those were good bodies. so what one to choose now?

http://www.prolineracing.com/p-572-r9-f.aspx


At the risk of asking a dumb question, why only these 2 bodies?

The reason for it is that both parma and protoform are working together to do away with ultra lightwieght bodies or one run bodies so to speak.

Dale from protoform explains this about as good as it can be on rctech check it out http://www.rctech.net/forum/showthread.php?t=231180

These are the only 2 carpet/foam bodies that meet the new "GBS" rules.
