Ive never ran foams on dirt before, thats why I was asking.

About the Big block motors, the .15 Rossi motors are probably faster than all of the .18 motors. How big is your budget?

 

[BOWTIE1]

hmmmmmnot too big i am trying to do this on a budget yea i was thinking about the bigblock .15 bt nova i dont know how much it is .. i am looking for 1 i also have a sweet 21 to trade for a bigblock .15 hehe what r u running on the oval?

 

[BOWTIE1]

as for motor...stick with the rossi based .12's ...they put out plenty of power and are legal at any track.

i run an rb, but the mugen engines are good as well.

if you havent run on the track with your new car yet, your best bet would be to go ahead and run on it and see what the car needs. its gonna be tough for anyone to help you set up your car online, because all tracks are different. I would just get some different sets of springs, some traction compound, your tools and some fuel and head out there one day and get it dirty. You can always ask someone on that track to help. the fast guys normally like to help the new guys, for awhile. And when you get back, post what you found out cuz I might run at weatherford some saturday night too.
