Eagle12 12-24-2008, 07:07 PM LOOKS AWSOME! Bigger than I thought it would be.
j21moss 12-24-2008, 09:28 PM reminds me of Terre Haute..
Alright.... Short Track racing!!!:woohoo:
smokefan 12-24-2008, 10:41 PM That looks alot better. Can't wait to try it out.
aeRayls 12-24-2008, 11:12 PM Moss, its a lot bigger than Terra haute. I'd say a tad narrower and shorter than Ft. Wayne.
Track looks good.
huffrcman 12-24-2008, 11:14 PM reminds me of Terre Haute..
Alright.... Short Track racing!!!:woohoo:
Track is bigger than Terre Haute's, probably 130' runline.Track looks good, I will bring my Legend over sometime.
ratchet 12-24-2008, 11:17 PM Track is 69 x 35 if that helps
aeRayls 12-24-2008, 11:23 PM I might stop by and run a truck class sometime. What's the rules for stock? Mod truck on carpet... sounds ummmm brutal!
ratchet 12-24-2008, 11:33 PM They have been running 10.5 in trucks I believe most stock trucks are run in novice with rubber tires stock towers only short shocking allowed.
j21moss 12-25-2008, 12:27 AM Moss, its a lot bigger than Terra haute. I'd say a tad narrower and shorter than Ft. Wayne.
Track looks good.
no way!!!! Pictures don't really justify that but I'll take your word on that!!!
trerc 12-25-2008, 07:08 AM Track is 69 x 35 if that helps
Yes, the track is bigger than it looks in the pictures, looks good.
ratchet 12-25-2008, 07:36 PM Just trying to keep the clean tread on top THANKS
huffrcman 12-25-2008, 07:40 PM Sorry Charlie...
ratchet 12-25-2008, 07:45 PM Thats ok you didn't do it. Just thought easier to let the other disapear and have track pics and info in one place.
trerc 12-25-2008, 07:55 PM Have you guys decided on an on road day and has there been any other talk of running on road on Sundays too? I know there had been mention of maybe trying Sunday on a trial type basis to see how it went.
huffrcman 12-25-2008, 08:45 PM I am putting this on the new thread, there is rubber tire trucks with touring car chassis and there are 2 BRL classes that are 4 cell pan cars.I would possible run a pan car class but I would have to get a speed controller.
Stetler17 12-25-2008, 08:56 PM I would be interested in a pan car class once everything gets going and they have their feet under them. Pick something that's not too hardcore while us beginners learn the ropes. :thumbsup:

:eek::eek::eek::lol:
ratchet 12-25-2008, 08:59 PM huff what are they running in 4cell pancar nastruck for motor and batts
huffrcman 12-25-2008, 09:01 PM I would think 4 cell 17.5 would be a good place to start then maybe 13.5.Or possible the Lipo 21.5 class since alot of people have Lipos's.There are alot of choices right now with the transition to Lipo's, there are some 1C Lipo classes starting up in some areas.
4 cell NASTRUCK has 2 classes, Sportsman is 17.5 4 cell and Masters is 13.5 motors.I read the rules under the BRL thread.
ratchet 12-25-2008, 09:07 PM 21.5 Lipo sounds cool me no liky oldschool batts no more
trerc 12-25-2008, 09:15 PM There are alot of choices right now with the transition to Lipo's, there are some 1C Lipo classes starting up in some areas.
I read Novak is getting closer to releasing their voltage booster too which will make 1s racing awesome.:thumbsup:

there is the trans-am class they are rubber tires, cool looking bodies and can run brushed or brushless motors. yes a spec class but you do get your feet wet.

Stetler17 12-26-2008, 01:57 PM I have a 4.5 in the Trans Am car...:woohoo::woohoo::woohoo:
Kinda like a 434" all aluminum SB2 headed small block Camaro on steriods.
huffrcman 12-26-2008, 03:22 PM say it with me 10.5 lipo...10.5 lipo...10.5 lipo...
Let'r eat
Joel:dude:
10.5 Lipo???? What's wrong with you son, open motor 3C Lipo!!!
JTRAIN 12-26-2008, 03:28 PM I figured we could keep it within reason I mean who has replacement parts for a woods x15?:freak:
racer57 12-26-2008, 03:43 PM Track looks good guys... Stetler I think maybe running 3.5 with the new thunder power 40c would be fun. :)
On a serious note I wanna run some carpet sprinters. How about non winged sprinter action? 13.5 or 10.5 must use 2.0" wheels.
huffrcman 12-26-2008, 05:10 PM That could be a possibility, I still need a sensored speedo...
smokefan 12-26-2008, 05:55 PM You guys running VTA rules right?
ratchet 12-26-2008, 06:07 PM yes we are
mkiiracer 12-26-2008, 06:08 PM You guys running VTA rules right?
yep VTA on the trans-am
racer57 12-26-2008, 06:56 PM That could be a possibility, I still need a sensored speedo...
Hey Huffer I know a Tekin guy that could probably hook you up.:p
huffrcman 12-26-2008, 07:46 PM Too funny, still waiting for mine...
I guess I could use the R1 since it is Lipo.
Stetler17 12-26-2008, 09:04 PM Sorry, didn't mean to rile up the bench racers with talk of an illegal car.
21.5 went in today
ratchet 12-26-2008, 09:17 PM what you do change the label
Stetler17 12-26-2008, 11:19 PM It's just a ring, slides right on..
smokefan 12-27-2008, 10:26 AM Sorry, didn't mean to rile up the bench racers with talk of an illegal car.
21.5 went in today
