Sounds good to me!!! I need another car to work on.:freak: I've got stuff to get one together. I don't think the big block pod will fit under the rear of the body though. I was thinking about modifying original motor plates to fit a brushless motor.

If you are on the East side of Ohio there is a high banked small carpet oval (fast slider turns laps in 3.5 sec range) in Muncie Indiana. We have a group of sliders most have been 14 least 4. We also run Late Model,Vendetta (buggy and truck), open 4-wheel, rookie. Everything is 1/18 as that is what the track was designed for. We race on Tuesday nights at 6:30 and practice is Saturday 9-1,

Leftturn Raceway. Let me know if you need info.

The big block pod will fit. I had one set up with a 12th scale axle/hubs/tires and a 60 tooth spur.

Sorry this took so long. I haven't been on here for a few days. Bob Evans runs the track his number is 765 289 7839.

To do a MapQuest the address is 503 N Eastwood, Muncie In 47302(?).

Track is on East side of Muncie about three blocks off of Highway 32 as it comes in from Winchester.

I understand that. Plus cost of gas isn't helping. We are at 3.91 today.

DAVON,
You (and everyone) are cordially invited to come practice on Wed. Racing on Sunday, oval racing, at Hobbytown,Boardman, Ohio. Located at 590 East Western Reserve Park, Building 10-E, Boardman, Ohio 44512 --330-629-9433. The Lewis brothers run some mean 1/18's (Mambas-lipo) And I run a stock Slider!
If I could get my 1/10 to run like the Slider, I'd be a happy man!!
Give the track a call!
Stay racing
Kid

A couple questions, as I just placed an order for a few mini-sliders;
1. what kind of surface is this track running (and please dont just say dirt)? I want to make a mini oval in my back yard and its too far for me to travel there just to check it out.
2. I have some paver sand left over from a recent patio project, does anyone think that it will help the track surface if mixed into my existing soil (fairly dry with no clay)?
3. what are everyone's general thoughts on the mini-slider in comparison to my current collection (Trinity Blade/Spyder's, Mini T's, AE -18T)? Will it act the same as a mini or does it have any realism.

Thanks
D
