Well I hooked up my A10 with the brushless today. All I can say is "OH MY GOD!" The sound, the speed and the power pulling out of the corners is surreal. I AM sleeping with it tonight, lol. I look to see a lot of people with brushless systems by next season, some guys left the track yesterday muttering "I wonder if Tower can have one to me by Friday" lol We have about 5 running already in the 6.5 class and I bet it's 6 or seven by next weekend.

I hate the Branford schedule is on top of ours again, I am itching to get down there and run. Kevin, just 43 in NASTRUCK? How about 45? I got my 510 all built and awaiting a Ford F150 body from McCallister. I also have the Chevy and The Yota coming, looks like Andy will be in the mix as well, Donnie has been hinting around too, I knew he would get some use out of that L4. I plan to heavily promote the 500 race this year Oh yea, the brushless was geared 4.29:1 on 2.5" tires and the speedo was set on the stock limiter!

I am 4 sure there Memorial weekend (I am planning).:cool: Maybe sooner...

:confused: I hear some of you up there have been playin with some trucks ???

Kevin

As of right now I'm the only one that have been practicing with a truck body. Still working on a good set up for the truck with a stock motor in it. I have the McAllister Toyota Tundra body. I may get a Chevy body later.

The Mcallister order came in today.

We should have some real good truck races next year.

Mmmmmmmmm I feel a road trip comin on :D

Cliff, I wasnt kiddin about the 2 four minute heats and 8 minute/100 lap main Nastrucks would make a good guniea pigs :lol:

you can't run 100 laps in 8 minutes here, I don't even think it's possible with a brushless set up. It took about 12 minutes for Chris Collinsworth to win with a 100 lap run last year in the enduro @ the Southern 500 and he was running brushless and averaging about 7.0 lap times. Some guys ran 19t motors turned back the timing and reduced the gearing and ran about a half a second quicker each lap but they were all gone by lap 93. Chris ran some 20 more laps after the race with his set up.

Yes Sir,
Your right! be hard pressed to run 70 laps in 8 minutes with a stocker. How the heck did Kevin Lang wind up with your Nastruck record anyway? Looks pretty soft to me :lol:

Kevin, you gonna take that? lol. Lee I think a fast 46 is about the best we are gonna see out of a truck

Same way I am going to take the track record from you in Branford,just lap you and the rest of the field 2-3 times ;) enjoy it while you can,2 more days :lol:

Kevin

Hehehehe I think I,ve got Kevin a Lil stressed :lol: Heck its all fun!

yep, I just finished the truck tonight, don't know if it's fast yet but it looks killer!

Hehehehe I think I,ve got Kevin a Lil stressed :lol: Heck its all fun!
No stress here :)

burrrr its gonna be cold Sunday. got my car re-done red and ready

It was still beaten, by 1 second or 30,hehe

You guys keep it up....I'll be back real soon and I'll show shatter that record. Opps I forgot I don't race for track records but I'll be up there with you

I love it, the smack is gettin deep! Let's talk about laps not seconds, lol Predicted new record for Stock NASTRUCK 44/5:05.00 The TKO Ford is awesome!

I see it in the warmer days... http://www.handykult.de/plaudersmilies.de//natur/sunny.gif
Although I was close but I screwed up on two of the laps in Branford.
And in Echeconnee I can't wait to get back up there and run !!!!! I see a 44 lap run at both places in the future... Kevin

should see around 46 somewhere up here in NASTRUCK, any idea what the schedule will be for Branford starting in Jan?

Read the schedule on my site or check the reply on the Branford thread... Kevin

Thanks!

Well add 2 more brushless motors to the field, Andy is getting one for Christmas from his wife and I just sold another one to one of our local guys. This is getting to be an epidemic! lol

I think we have 8 or 9 now so far and the new season is a couple of months off yet. Time will tell.

lol who else got one

Mr Custom Works, He is probably installing it as we type, lol

lol really i figured he was gonna get one

yep, I was right, I am talking to him on the phone now

lol i am gonna fight it as long as i can lol

well you got a few more months

fight it baby fight it. "to be brushless or not to be that is the question."

naaa i will just park it lol

i like the brushless for breack out but i still luv brushed motors

i will go brushless if it happens everywhere

Get it the brushless...what brushless system are you guys using there? I have the Novak 4300 but I am considering getting the 5800 motor or the LRP system so I can go both brushless or brushed. I really need to get up there now with all the brushless coming out

I agree Donnie, when brushless starts being run in the stock class, I will definately be selling my stuff! Enough is enough!!!

Robert your above post puzzles me, have you ever even run a brushless motor? I can't imagine having the same exact motor every time you run in practice or in the race as being a problem. The brushless system will not be run in the open stock class ever. It will however be run in it's own open class on non points weekends. The system we are using is the 5800KV programmed in the stock mode.

What to you mean programmed in stock mode?

the SS speed controll can be programmed in stock or Mod mode. We use mode #6 with the 5800KV motor

OH ok I've only used 2 & 4. With the 4300 I can keep with 19t in those modes

i do think there is a place for the brushless motor but i just prefer stock but i think it is the perfect set up for running the break out class

If you are not as good at setting stock motors up or have the right kind of batteries or not as efficient at chassie set-up as some of the drivers that have been racing longer, brushless is the was to go. I like 19T racing as well.
