lol.. what can i say its go or no go on my radio...lol

So how many differant class's is their gonna be at the MORR race's this year are you gonna run two or three heats and a main .Just wounderin.

APL HED Did you get that car ready to roll.

Just to quiet the rumor mill. No, we have not made a final decision on the SC class. Bear with us on this. Since the SC10 is not out, it is hard to make decisions on what might be. So rather than adjusting the rules numerous times, we are trying to make an informed decision.

Same rules as last year on the numer of qualifying rounds. 3 only if we can start the 3rd by 4pm.

Flyers are posted. http://www.midwestoffroad.org/flyers.html

Yes, I tore it down, found the front diff wasted, the gear and the outdrives were melted, and the rear diff was fried. only the frt belt was bad, no big deal, the diffs must have been a little too loose for the motor you had in it.
Its all good, I rebuilt it, and just bought another one loaded with hop-ups, and Im bout to buy 1 more that has a few more hops that I want. one word: titanium slipper/lay shaft set, lol. Cant wait for dirt season. Thanx again Jeff, I am very happy with my purchase. ttyl

Hey apple , It sounds like it will be pretty much the same group of us running stock buggy this season, so It should be epic stock buggy mayhem at it's finest!

Apl Hed sorry about the outdrive and stuff.I don't know alot about 4wd.I'll see you at the first race.I'll hook you up with somthin for those bad parts. I'm glad you was happy
Have Fun

Are you guys gonna have a 13.5 class?

Are you guys gonna have a 13.5 class?

yea masters or mod:tongue:

Are you guys gonna have a 13.5 class?

I do beleive that they said If 6 or more showed for a 13.5 class they would run it.But I would check with Fish just to be sure.

Without specificly asking the other directors, if I rember our discussion correctly on the toppic of 13.5 was it was a masters only class. With having stock and mod already for classes, we were not going to allow a 13.5 class to be added. The 6 or more rule would not apply for 1/10th buggy, truck, SC or 4WD using a 13.5. That is not to say you can't run a 13.5, just that it would be mod.

hay all bfg is having another slash bash trophy run on 4-17

Alright thanks guys, sounds great.

Alright thanks guys, sounds great.

just run stock with me Noah. 17.5, its ok in the dirt, lots of competition.

Looking forward to racing with you guys again, I haven't run MARS (now MORL) in a few years.
Schedule looks good, see you all at Litchfield.

Alright apple, Ill have to get a 17.5 if I can even get to the races but Ill try, Should be fun!

it is alot of fun, cool ppl, most of them any way, lol.

Double check that you have some pretty big gears before you run 17.5 because it's going to be a little dissapointing without a decent gear. Associated makes 72 tooth spurs and you'll want a few pinions in the 35 tooth range.

Hey fred, the chassis stretch is done, just need sc10 parts.

Alright apple, Ill have to get a 17.5 if I can even get to the races but Ill try, Should be fun!

Ill hook you up w/some gears if you need any.

Can I have some gears too my car is a little on the slow side :wave:

funny, we shall see at litchfield.

Ok, here is the scoop on what we will start with at Litchfield for the SC Classes.

Slash stock - No aluminum aftermarket parts, plastic aftermarket parts are allowed to replace the bulkhead, arms and outer hubs. Radio, receiver, servo and speed control may be changed. Motors in this class are to be Traxxas Titan only. All other motors including brushless are considered the SC class under ROAR rules. Must use tires that would normally fit on the Slash/SC10 rims. 1/10th offroad truck tires are not allowed. Cut tires are not allowed.

SC Class - ROAR rules in this class. Traxxas Slash and the SC10 are legal at this point, others may be legal but none are formally announced as of now. The Titan motor will be allowed in the SC class subject to possible change.

In all classes the only approved tires to this point are: Tire Patterns - Proline 1076 or 1078; AE 9809; Traxxas 5871

stock 27 and 17.5 for sc class?

stock 27 and 17.5 for sc class?

Yep, per the ROAR rules.

this dosnt sound like stock slash class if your changing all the electronics out...and for what reason? and it sounds like you can use any tire that fits the rim, prolines? the rules have changed an awful lot since the meeting. Ill shut up now.

I would have to agree. Since there is going to be an SC class, keep the Slash class a true "box stock" class. No changes to what comes out of the box. You can use the spacers that come with the kit, change oil in the shocks and have your choice of the 18 or 23 tooth pinion that comes with the kit.

If you want to change radio, esc, servos, etc. then move up and run in the SC class.

There was much talk about keeping the Slash class spec. and with the SC class it is an opportunity to do just that.

Interesting... now there are 2 SC classes (which have never been run before) but they fail to recognize the 1/8th scales as an "official" class even though they raced in the series last year.

I don't think you need to reinvent the wheel here for the spec class. Tires and motor are one thing but when some one has a M11 radio or something, they don't want to use that worthless traxxas radio. The stock servo should be good enough but that radio has to go ! Most every other track that ran spec classes all winter long allowed radio changes. Or enjoy heats of 6 due to a lack of more channels because not everyone has the odd ball 27mhz am crystals in there pit box.

We need to change this thread to "MORL slash discussion" Can we talk about buggies? 1/8 scales? something different? looks like the rules are layed down for the slashes........NEXT SUBJECT!!!!!

What do you want to know about 1/8th buggies? Show up with 6 and run them, that was like 12 pages ago :thumbsup:

Next subject, "How to rototill your wife's flower garden for spring, using an 1/8th buggy"

So these are the slash rules right... Set in Stone?

I am about to buy motors and parts for the slash, but i dont want to waste money if it could change again. Thank you.

Keep The Slash At Home And For Get It Till Winter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Moose has the right idea!
