Cars set new box stock lap record for layout!!!

Good Job SCJ!! What was the record that you broke? What is it now. Was this a 4x16 scorpion? What car and rules formerly held the record. We are going to race mega g's later in our program and would like to see what form might be best. Thank you.

We allowed box stock SRT's with only Super Tires on the back. Tyco .422" which come up to .436" on the SRT stock rim. That was it. No lowering of the car. Front tires must be stock dia. Could use 7:22 gearing.

Super G+ was the same, had to use AFX Turbo rims .275" in place of stock rim and could use the Turbo 22T rear gear and the older traction magnets.

Track is EXT. Scorpion layout which is 4' by around 19' or you could say lane length of 71" adv. Maxtrax layout with Trackmate timing.

SRT had recorded for along time at 38 laps in 3min.
Then a Super G+ got it up to 39 Laps
Now the Mega G did 4 ties during the race and broke it at 40 laps.

On the Mega G we only allowed the .422" tyco rear tires, no gear changes or lowering of the car. Must have stock dia fronts. Rear min. dia. during tech was .436".

Car didn't run as good with .418" tyco Super tires in testing.

I tried it with BSRT O Ring front tire set from the Gjet which tech around .352 or so. To lower the car you must flatten the shoes. My car stalled without doing this.

For our first race I thought that I would follow the "Kiss" rule, keep it super simple and I'm glad we did.

I was suprised because in practice I ran faster with the old Super G+ and the SRT and Super G grip better and on the drag strip they were just as fast.

Love the cars, easy to drive like Tyco's.

Thanks for the info James. I think the standard for box stock racing seems to be just allow rear tire change only. Usually dbl fl rims with slip-ons. This seems to keep it simple as you say and makes tech easier, as well as low cost. We will most likely run out of package since it will be on a max with more downforce.
