what should rules be i goteople charging take lap counting, if multiple are charging Ro-Sham-Bo takes effect, anything from 1/16 to 1/20, three strikes and you're out,be courtious and that's it.

Mz

yea, iv got the stocker...

Nasher

I also added that at your track it's only off-road, also winner gets to be turn marshal in event of multiple charging, you don't like something you have to help in fixing it or shut up, yeah. Just wanted to make sure I'm not gonna be chugging at 20 while otheres are doing like 50

Mz

i was thinking that since this club is starting out small, we shouldn't get too specific w/ the classes. i was thinking maybe a 2wd and a 4wd class? not excluding brushless into other classes.

Mz

its all about how you take the turns and jumps... a guy w/ a mamba and lipos could easily be schooled by a guy w/ a stock motor.
at least on my track.
btw... everyone cool w/ the track set up? any suggestions?

Nasher

you mean my 18, your 18 then my baja,your baja and dean's baja, we could also pull the front or rear doggy's out to make all of the 2wd, be kinda fun

Mz

pull the dogbones out? thats ghetto

Nasher

how many 18's can run on your track at the same time?

Mz

im thinkin at least 4 comfortably...

Nasher

what 18 scale cars do you have? Numbers?

Mz

in my family-3
me-1

Nasher

4 total or three, which ones?

Mz

three total, sorry
my bros got a mamba mini t that needs some parts if its going to race
a mini baja w/ stock motor and minor mods
and mine, the rc18t. stock motor minor mods

Nasher

ok so then a RC18 class with 2wd? or should we go 4? and a mini baja/T class

deanR

i have an orion baja motor in my baja, with a 14 tooth pinion, about as fast the stock motor but loads more acceleration and torque, set up for my track, but i could get a 17 tooth pinion, (stock set up, i think)


dean

Nasher

you might be the third in the 4wd class if we decide to go 2wd for the races, that way 3 and 3

Mz

well just from experience, 2wd cars are harder to control than 4wd cars. i think we should have 2 separate classes. 2wd and 4wd.
but it depends how many people show up.

deanR

me? i like the way two wheel drives feel in the dirt, i can drift my mini baja around in this loose dirt that i drive it sometimes

Nasher

well, yeah if we get more than you and me with an 18T/B/MT then it'll be fun, we already got plenty 2wd's need a vendetta or something, anything 4wd really

deanR

it would also be cool to have an open class, where i used to race (onroad) they used to have and open class, it went from touring cars to monster trucks, kinda interesting to watch

Nasher

we could probably do two sets of opens like a rc18 with like 2 mini baja's/t, be kinda interesting whoever raced against me, unless it was my dad would probably win [:'(]

deanR

what does your dad have, and is he good. and by the way, how long have you guys been into this hobby? i started 4 years ago and have never put the trasnmitter down since then

Nasher

Dad will be driving my baja that I got and felt it was a pain to work on, and he had a Futaba FX-10 in the late 80's early 90's and my mom might actually join also driving baja, and she had an original Midnight Pumpkin, they both were totally tricked out. Since I was 5 I've been driving for about six months I stopped, true hobby grade was a year ago and 2 yrs. if xmods count. Started with those newbrights, this weekend I'm gonna order a proline x-citer and when it comes I'm gonna splatter flouresent orange over faspearl black.Might go back to Cap. hobbies to see if they have anything.

deanR

and you, nasher, will be driving what, an 18b/t?

Nasher

18b possibly converted to T, trying to see if a Mini-LST body would fit, the size seems right
