I will talk with the Quality Inn and see what they can do for me
As for truck Classes Stock/17.5 will be the same class

Lipos rules 2c hard case are chassis protected Same as MP I believe I will be allowing up to 6000mah packs which I think most places are doing 5000mah

Pan car Rules I am going with MP and BC rules so no one will be different

I have a newer version of AutoScore and will also be testing out 2 computers
I am getting one from Rowley Interprises and will have my personal laptop running too
Track size will be 74X36 with a pipe down the middle and carpet in the middle too Last time it took me about 2 hours to clean up the traction compound Learned my lesson on that one

I want to run a TC class like MP with the vintage bodies I am looking for 2 bodies that will fit Losi's JRXS's

MOre later
