RcHover In foxboro Mass is opening a new carpeted flat track for Oval Racing and Onroad. Oval is looking to be on Saturdays . RcHover is a fully service Hobby store specializing in Heli's...Planes..and cars...
.
They do race offroad in the summer however a new track is being open
in the building directly behind them. They are installing the carpet this weekend and hope to be racing in 2 weeks or so..I will update everyone when we get the green light....The owner asks however until they get everything in order if guys can bring thier own pit tables and chairs as the facility is being built......They are also asking for donations for chairs......
.
The carpet Im told will be CRC and should arrive in a few days....
Any questions please post here and I will try to get you an answer or contact the owner jerry at

I was at Rc Hover today, they are planning on off road carpet on wed. nights,on road for thurs. nights oval on sat. afternoon and onroad for sunday afternoon.He said if there is enough interest in oval he will ad another night of oval racing.He is also going to install a rock crawling coarse and wants to have races or comps on that.The wood is there for the drivers stand , they will be putting the carpet down I think he said this weekend and then racing next weekend if all goes well.

How about Sat. nights If you can go to rchover.com and go to the menu and click rch raceway, under there there is a forum on this track, maybe everyone can make suggestion on what night they would like to race oval.I think Fri or Sat nights would be good or sun afternoon.

Ive been out of racing for about 15 years and will be racing oval at RC Hover.What kind of oval cars do you guys run.I have a Hyperdrive H10RS and a Woods pancar that I will start with. Are you running brushless or brushed?4 cell or 6 cell or lipo?

bud3738
11-01-2008, 07:40 AM
I think alot is still up in the air....Most of us are running the newer hyperdrives...( Pro 3/ 2)....Some running KSG's....I think some were running also L4's....Most have brushless however at our old track we started a Truck class with 27T motors and they were alot of fun......Lots of us also have S/K's.......I'll run whatever.......

with the guys from radical ricks coming there most will have either cars for the truck class and the rest of the guys will be running 4 cell 17.5 brushles. Lipo in the northeast probably wont take off until next year, when it settles down. mike

trying to push lipo now will IMO hurt attendance. I know of a local track here in maine that has all but pushed away 17.5 4 cell guys from there weekly racing because they have a couple of 21.5 lipo guys that ran with the 17.5's at first and drove away the 17.5 guys me includeded I usualy race there a few times as this is NOT my home track but because of the lipo push I dont see me running there anytime soon.

GT2
11-01-2008, 08:20 PM
I agree lets all support the track.

I have a brushless 4.5 and 6 cell batteries.Should I bring this to the first race or should I buy 17.5 and make 4 cell packs?

bud3738
11-01-2008, 10:59 PM
17.5 and 4 cell.....you wont be able to drive that combination you mentioned....oval is different....
