B-MAN1 01-23-2011, 09:00 PM nice pic of you BOAT on the A/E web page.
great job to all that ran down in ohio.
Thanks Blaze it was a great year for me at CRCRC! I was glad to help all my PG racers as well..It's great to watch and help people improve.
hogmansp 01-23-2011, 09:13 PM ill have my tt there also. i love driving it. sounds like we have a class!!! what tires are you running on your tt's? all i have is the stock ones maybe we should all run the stock wheels and tires so we are all the same? they seem to work well. kinda like a stock class but open motor combo. we were talking about that saturday with some guys. just a way to keep the cost down... just a thought
I have the set of stocks that came with it and a set of clay switch 2.0's. I will run whatever everyone else wants to. I was going to try and order a pair of something else but not sure what works the best as far as a 2.2 tire so I am in the same boat as far as not wasting money on tires that won't work or wear out in a night. I would say with a begining class that limits and rules would put some people off so keep it as open as possible unless it gets out of control. Ran the tt with a rx8 and sc4x tekin 4.5 with 14-42 gearing and was just a pinch slower than the 4x4 sc on the straights but very calm through the corners and fly's very nice. A little tweeking on the setup and it should be very fun to drive and anyone should be able to test it around the track! I would like to see it grow into a fulltime consistantly entered class.

mike1985 01-24-2011, 01:54 PM there are alot of tracks running a box stock sc classes. you can run brushless but gotta run stock wheels. dont think any of the guys would be down with that but makes it easier on the people just getting into the hobby
hyper..,
what ESC motor combo are you running in your TT ? How do your stock tires look as in wear after running them ?
Mike
mt_100 01-24-2011, 02:45 PM Couple questions, the Super Stock truck class, is that 13.5 motors in stadium trucks? How popular is it?
SCT (Slash) with 13.5 is which class?

SCT (Slash) with 13.5 is which class?
Stadium Truck - Super Stock is 13.5, which is a very popular class.
13.5 in SC is considered MOD SC. 17.5 in SC is Stock SC

Uncle E 01-25-2011, 10:40 PM Randy was squealing like a school girl on the drivers stand! Maybe too many jumps, maybe they're too big? See you guy weds night!

mudge 01-25-2011, 11:22 PM Randy was squealing like a school girl on the drivers stand! Maybe too many jumps, maybe they're too big? See you guy weds night!
I'm not sure what to do but I'm thinking the 4.5 might not be enough motor for that triple. Lmao!! You guys are going to love this layout. And if you don't.......you may want to look into yoga or sewing or ballet or whatever Uncle E does all day!!!
You guys suck! Can't you build a good track ever? 180 degree corners? To many jumps, I quit! I'm going to Vegas. Screw you guys, I'm not coming to run on that junk track.
PS - See you tomorrow night.
PSS - You still suck!
Looks like Andy has a little captain in him.
DChupp1 01-26-2011, 07:01 AM Shirts available to guys who attended NN's. I'm not saying "your" shirt. We got a big box of shirts various sizes etc. I have no idea how long they'll last sizes etc. Only guys who attended the race have a chance to get one though. I'm not setting them aside, get one of you guys out here!
Hey Uncle E. Finally got one of the guys from our track coming up this weekend (Mike Hardin). If you still have any NN shirts please allow him to pick them up for Donn and Andrew Chupp.A large and an X large.
Thanks Donn
