I think you can bank on brushed stock not being there. Classes I want to see...

17.5 4 cell
Either 13.5 4 cell, or 10.5 4 cell. What ever one is more popular at the time classes are announced.
21.5 lipo
17.5 lipo
open mod

Get rid of the touring oval (like 10 entries the past 2 years) and the sprint cars (like 20 entries as well). SK cars are dead, and never made it out of the north east, and I hear they are not doing well up there now either.

Hello... thanks for the post! Right now can't say anything is definite. But will try real hard this year to lay it out ahead of time to help racers plan. With a large part of our racers from Florida, and of course other parts of the US, we try to cater to everyone. Sub-C racing with 13.5 and 10.5 are still big this way. 21.5 LIPO is growing. And there is a big group that still races 19T Trucks this way, so something like this could fit as I want a brushed Sportsman type class. Sprints and 4wds we will see. 12th scales always are big at the 'birds too (motors?). And we will watch the rest of the US for interest in 17.5/27T stock racing. That is a great speed and I wonder if there will be some of it starting this season. PRO MOD TOO... Lot's to see and keep our eye on. But all in all, should be a great 'birds from the feedback we are getting!
