NO 6-CEELY FOR ME. i don't have a battery tray for it. it's up to u jason. 19turn probably won't have a good enough turn out. so it'll probably be stock. plus i'd have to buy a motor. so it's ur call jason.
i got a L2 for 6-cell yee-haw....
call me jason around 6:15

Dudes...I dunno know if you want a piece of me....lol

That car was a rocketship!!!!!!!! I just cleaned the motor, put a gear on it that i ran at Lapaz on friday night...(set new track record!!!!!!)...and put it on the track Saturday night......from what my boyz running the computer said I was....key word there is WAS on a slow 64 fast 63 lap pace till the other boyz wanted to start rubbing.......lol

Kinda pissed me off about the 2nd heat......that is why I aborted the run........might go to there place and race.......on Friday.....who knows........


If ya wanna run 6 cell stock for fun...and keyword is for fun........I might put it on the racing surface.......but ya all gotta play nice......... :thumbsup:

Me personally I'm getting used to the 4 cell stuff. Managed to get the car up to a 57 pace on Sunday (Triple Crown) but couldn't hold it........

Think I found a way to get the 122 spur I need to make it run right on "4 flat Jenny"....aka the trusty old l4 slider.......lol

Me personally after the other 6 cell guys left I had the most fun hanging with Tj Domark.......that dude is cool.......I gots to hold and breathe on the new Trinity car.............and I was :freak: out!!! LOL

Anyways.......I'm out...gotta get some sleep...this ovewrtime stuff is payin the bills....but man it doesn't leave me anytime to get in the secret speed lab..........

I know this is a carpet oval thread but I figured this would be important info to some of you. Summit Raceway will be putting in a dirt oval surrounding our off - road track this spring with intentions of racing by early may. Phil and I are excited about this and we have been seeing a lot of interest from others and would like any sugestions on rules, classes, etc. Feel free to e-mail us at:SUMMITRCRACEWAY@YAHOO.COM. or contact Phil or I. Thank you.

That's the last thign I need in the fleet is a couple of $600 Custom Works cars. Well as long as I am still in the area count me in for a sprint car class and a 2wd class. I will do some looking into what is popular.

Sorry bout that Dave.......Oh yeah...by the way Dave...keep in mind that we are in the works for a big...and I mean big end of season race for Fort Wayne.......and the Brp's are invited to compete for a trophy(plaque)

And guys don't forget oval racing doesn't stop during the summer......the dirt oval at the fort, high speed Velodrome action in Indy, and some of the best short track action on the fastest short track (concrete) on the planet in Lagrange.........204 ft driveline, 10 degrees of banking in the corners.....2.5 in the straights......each corner has it's own characteristics......this track is a drivers track!!!!!

Myself I run a EDM, basicly its a old B-2 with a East coast Mod body. Run it Mod. I run Mod truck (t-4) and when enough show a Dominator. I havent run it against T/C's yet.
I think you should have:
Sprints
Trucks
a Late model class
And a EDM class.

For examples try out www.dirtoval.com I race at RVR in Bradley IL. They have a 200' drive line as a TRI Oval. It is WICKED FAST. I ran a 5.6 lap with a stock T-4 and a 13X3. They also run Nitro on Saturday nights with the same classes. RVR's web site is www.rvr.8m.com
The only thing to think about is Direct drive and Gear box classes.
I will run when I can. I will bring all 4 cars and 5 when the sprinter shows. The Dominator is colecting more dust than anything.

Hope this helps,

Mike

Dirt Oval, COOL... are you going to run nitro or electro class out there.

Krisfo
03-18-2004, 10:59 PM
Electrics only dudes......can't run nitros.....the "other" tennants in the business district didn't like the idea....something about rattling the windows???? lol

Krisfo
03-18-2004, 11:11 PM
Jason.....I bet you wouldn't give me a headstart.........lol

I bet you got somethin up your sleeve to blow me outta the water......lol

Nah....let's just have fun.....and keep it clean for 6 celly stock........

Or I might just run 4 celly stock and see if I can reach the 58 lap mark.........gotta keep up or do better than Kevin Stahl..........lol

DWBryan
03-18-2004, 11:27 PM
Well I have a old 15 year old RC10T that will do the job just fine.
Sounds like a good time to me, maybe we can hummmm the windows with electro racing... I LOVE loud nitro power but ya gotta do what ya gotta do, It will still be a GREAT time.

DWBryan
03-18-2004, 11:35 PM
Ohh yea if anyone has old RC JUNK to donate get with Krisfo... I have been trying to put together a JUNK YARD WARS project for RC... teams have to build a project out of 90% RC JUNK ONLY.
I have thought up a few rather diferent things for em to build.... Broken or wore out parts will be just fine... old and cant get parts RC stuf is great.. even broken radio shack & newbright stuff will be welcome. Thanks

Krisfo
03-19-2004, 12:01 AM
Hmmmmm....R/C Junkyard wars????

Hmmmmm..maybe we will have some junk r/c parts for after we all run 6 cell stock........LOL


Hopefully it ain't my stuff.....

or I will be like this..... :freak:

03-19-2004, 08:43 AM
isn't any car junk after a 6-celly race night? lol

jason crist
03-19-2004, 11:05 AM
your correct Paul

(when your in that class.....ha ha h a) lol


Kris
if we can get a class more than 3 i'll run 6 cell with ya,
i have nothing up my sleeve and nothing special.
infact i took three 4 cell packs and put them together for 6 cells. so you and i both know the packs aren't very good.

I haven't ran 6 cell on a flat track and would like to see why racers are still running 6 cell stock and not 4 cell stock or 19 turn.

so I'm inviting anyone who runs 6 cell stock to come out and show me why it's so fun and hopefully some good clean racing
After i watched 6 cell run last saturday and only turning 59 laps.....
and 4 cell stock turning 60 and 61
I'm not sure what the record


see ya saturday

alright there homie. who sat track record in terrehaute, me. who won the memorial race @ new castle, me. also almost a new track record. stupid novice guy caused me not to get it. so don't make me put the hurt on ya in 6-celly. if i only had the right tray.
6-celly should be 2-3 laps off 19t.
i still love ya like a hemroid jason.....lol
is brent coming or not?

03-19-2004, 02:11 PM
A good 6 cell car would be on the same pace as a 19T at the Fort, just use a-lot more tires. I would think the leader of the red rag nation Brent Lane could pop off a 67 or 68 with a 6cell if he ever got serious. On a bigger track there would be more separation in favor of the 19T cars being faster. :thumbsup:

I will be there tomorrow. I am going to run 4 cell stock. 6 cell is no more for me. I think 6 cell could go mmmmmmmmmm.........about 66, 67 laps.I do have an awesome 6 cell car but I will leave it at home. You guy's run 65 laps and I will dust it off.I think 4 cell 62 maybe and I mean it would have to be a perfect run with no mistakes so you noooooo.. I can't do it.I will leave it up to Paul Hunnington to get 62 laps. :thumbsup: SEE Ya tomorrow! :p

6 cell get wild here also, that is how we got the 1st start for the parts along with nitro trucks with .21 engines in em.
"better driver+patience= MO laps baby!!!!"
That is a good rule of thumb here also, I get a kick out of some that try to run big or powerfull engines or even a mod electro that is too much for em to handle out here... sooner or latter the JY wars parts will get to a decent pile.
Hay Kriss had a guy here today running foams again and still working!! Pink on the F and purple on the R mounted to a nitro sprint car.
I just wonder if its somthing to do with the temp out there... its was the 2nd day he made em work.
I rem several guys that tryed hard to get foams to hook up out there and had NO LUCK at ALL.

Krisfo
03-20-2004, 02:15 PM
Okay guys......we will see if we can run 65 tonight...if so Brent...you had better dust that 6 cell rocket off...and come race with us.......

Dave, that is cool.....who was it??? How much of a difference in lap times compared to caps???? When I get my gas sprinter done I will try foamies, but I think to be fast.....like a gas car should be we should run caps out there.......or rubber tires like we use here at the fort on the carpet. They come up to temperature and stick really well.........

Dave, eventhough you techniclly have a concrete short track.....guys don't let it fool yas.....his tracks is fast like Darlington.......and the formula "good driver+good setup+patience=Mo laps baby!!!" applies to Lagrange...........


Compared to earlier last year Dave, the track is smooth and fast.......maybe that is why foamies are gonna work????? or because the sprinter is a heavier car and the added weight make the foam tire wheel flex and the contact patch stays consistyent?????? Keep up the good wrok bud.....maybe I will come up there and get Kevin Stahl to go too. We both think we can get a 4cell mod or even a 6 cell mod car with caps to fly around your track!!! If we do...it will bring the guys away from their benches!!!!!!!

Hope to see all of yas tonight...........

Laters.......

We had a BRP play race today out there and with foams... just charged the batt's and keep the same setup as I ran on Summit and it was just fine out there... sooooo it cant be the weight.. I think its temp, but ??? latter will tell.
I didnt get a time on B Deel when he ran the sprinter, but it looked pretty good.
Im planning to rent a concrete shaver again and see if I can get the track even better.
Yep in nascar they get the Darlington wall kiss/stripe.. I guess this place is really pretty much like that... never thought about it untill now.

Krisfo
03-21-2004, 03:48 AM
Yeah...most of us have the "Summitt Raceway Wall scape" either on the right side........front or rear!!!! LOL

And Jason....you guys chickened out on me....lol

I guess we try next week!!! LOL

I probably won't be there next week......KGF Motorsports has to go up to Cavalcade of Wheels and represent !!!!!

They maily run 6 cell........so I gotta go up there and beat up on them guys.......

hydroracer,
I just went to look at the results on the webpage, and discovered that I posted last weeks results again for this week. I will correct the problem and have the correct results posted tonight. Then you can take a look at http://hometown.aol.com/sheath9831/racewayresults.html
for the results. I was not there Saturday, so I don't know for sure if they ran 6-cell, but I think they did.

Kris

think about this .............

top 3 cars that qualified where LEADING EDGE'S new chassis called the EDGE.
no it's not a complete car, but if your car has everytning you want on it (hop up's) then you can take the EDGE and change over your L4 to the EDGE chassis.
E-mail Dave and he can have you a chassis in no time.


then a couple of practice runs you can be right up there with us with .....o atleast 57 or maybe 58 laps lol

for all
LEADING EDGE will be at Racestreet Raceway this sunday for there big race

03-23-2004, 11:07 AM
KRIS it is not the car. u need to listen when people talk to u. a l4 is a very competitive chasis. switching cars won't make u fast. i'm still trying to figure out my ksg. just work on the car......if adx was still in buisiness i'd be running adx.

Corey1701
03-23-2004, 05:37 PM
Yes, the first 3 cars were Edge cars.......but what (who's) motors did they run. Still gotta have the juice to make the car go fast.
I am still seaching for the majic setup to pick up 3 laps -- I am there with ya Kris. :thumbsup:
