    Kool thanks. Do you kno what rules they are gonna use?  I raced redding for the big short course race and everyone was limited to 2s lipo.... wondering if that will be the case for the 2wd and 4wd3 trucks

    Rules????  What are those? :eek:  Generally we do what is called "OPEN" truck or basically anything goes.  If there were four or more guys running 2S and same general setup then they may open up another class.

    Haha rules.... ppl always seem to get butt hurt about rules. I run 1/8 stuff in my jammin sct 4x4, and with a 2250kv motor, i cant run on 2s...... 3s or 4s is a must! But ppl seem to think thats unfair for some reason.... so i was curious if OPEN really means open....

    Talked to the guys in redding, and 9 of them are heading up. Should be a fun race! That track is HUGE!!!  Haha. Doesnt seem like the typical track for chad, based off the one he had at RPM.  Looks like i mite need to gear up a bit......

    wow ! that track is super sick !  i'm impressed, can't wait.  Don't think i'll  be able to make that massive double with my sc's.  should be sick to see the 1/8 guys flying high and far.  even though i run electric only, i'm dying to get a whiff of NITRO !  8)

    Well come on out. Chad has been busting his hump trying to get this place ready. The idea is for sc trucks not to clear but in the middle of the feature there is a roller section for the sc trucks. I'm hoping a lot from this site show up to be able to see a nice track in action that still works for the smaller rigs.
