i was asked to post a start thread for the ny state fairgrounds in syracuse ny. we race on the quartermidget and microd track which is located on the grounds at the fair. the track race line is 500ft. its a great track and we have alot of fun all summer long. there is a real nice drivers stand and electric is provided. you will need extension cords, a table and chair and pit light if you have one or pit off the back of your vehicle.

there will be a consession stand set up and parts trailer at the track. scoring provided by ******* rc which they use the amb system(personal transponders recommended).

what is it dirt oval or blacktop oval

its pavement and its located on the ny state fairgrounds. the quartermidget and microd club use it most of the week but we are able to use it on tuesdays (check schedule above for race dates). it is a big track for radio controlled vehicles but its fun and very competitive. the race line is 500ft and the lanes are roughly 20ft wide. so if your hitting someone with that much space thats a big problem.

i'll be runnin 1S this year i think. last year when we ran, we ran 2S 17.5 and couldn't hardly get the power to the ground. 21.5 wasn't as bad, but i think the lower voltage and taller gear will help that ungodly rip off the bottom, but still produce PLENTY of top end.

also, last year i ran 3 pinks and a double pink. that's what i plan to start with again, but i do have a good set of caps that i'd like to try also. grip wasn't bad with the foams but it would get a little hairy for the last 30 secoonds. i think 1S will help this too. of course if they were allowed to spray sugar water in the corners, it'd be a non-issue too. But, i do understand people gettin cranky about little kids traction rolling in their microds. :eek:

i would think 1s 21.5 or 17.5 would be more than enough power on that track depending on conditions of the track.


also, on the windy days at the track the cars can be more than a handful depending on which way its blowin.
