I may, but depends on the classes. I have a 4wd Corr, but what are the rules on the class??? Just true SCT???, SCT wheels and tires and ROAR max size?

Jose, I think we will discuss that at the next meeting. I know jack about the rules. I'm just trying to get em' there to race. lol We had planned on running an open class so ...

I don't know about how the rules will play out... I hope I don't ever have to race Jose's 4wd with my 2wd but I think we learned to not to put his 4wd with the Monsters... Well, I hope we learned...

I do want to see what that beast can do, though. Cause it's a good looking truck.

lol....lasted not even down the straight away. Smacked in the front and it was over.....MT vs Corr truck is a no win situation. Poor truck got killed quickly......

My Mugen buggy got pimped smacked too....head on collision at 35-40mph is not good......poor shock tower is split in the front. Losi glue held it together for the Amain....I was proud of the old Mugen buggy today. Real trooper to stay together and finish.

The truggy was the only thing that came away in one piece....and the MT didn't fare to badly either.

lol, I'm not sure who it was but I hit the same truck three times in the same spot. For some reason he was always turned sideways at the end of the straight. I think the time that really did the damage was when he was trying to get back over the pipe and we went head on. :eek::mad:

Ha...I got smacked quite a few times in buggy during the main. Lapped traffic still doesn't know the meaning of moving over. You get to them and they want to race you and end up cutting into you.

I think I will start reminding driver's that are about to be lapped, or going down another lap to move over. I know I've been there before when I didn't realize who it was trying to pass me. But if I could make a suggestion, just slow down a little then you wouldn't have to deal with so much lap traffic. :D Poor thing. hahahahahaha

hehe, then you got Chill trying to take me out coming out of the pits....LOL. That was classic....all I heard was a E-revo coming like a missle at the back end of my Losi...lol.

Jose, I don't know what you are talking about. :rolleyes:

I tried to get them to move over and let the fast guys by but most didn't listen. I guess we need to bring it up in the next drivers meeting. I'm not going to do it because everytime I try to do something like that I get accused of making up rules to help me.

I'm going to put a CORR bumper on the front of my truck, put a 6.5 in it and plow the road.

Dale Earnhardt told Jeff Gordon once that if they aren't booing, you aren't winning enough. lol

It's not really a rule to move over for the leaders, just like it's not really a rule for the leaders not to knock you out of the way. lol

I about got hit 3 or 4 times trying to marshal a truck, lids flying all over the place, broken legs dragging around every couple of races, you guys are dangerous...bg

Yeah its funny we get hit in the mains like punching bags.....first time we tap somebody they say "dirty driver". I may just start running the Losi MT in all the mains.....Let them hit that big animal. :football:

Chill - yeah I heard you had somebody intentionally trying to wreck you in the main... that's rough man... but most of us didn't hit you on purpose.

I doubt lap or time penalties will be much help. Some of us aren't doing anything malicious just trying to drive (we just aint that good)... and those that were hacking weren't in contention anyways...

I know time is a problem, but we had too many people on the stand for 1/10. We were jamed in like sardines. Plus the skill level was really strung out. Others may not agree, but I would have let the top 3 or 4 run, then the rest of us. Would have made for some interesting racing, plus you would have had a little elbow room driving.

PawPaw, we are working on that. We should be getting close to having enough money to build the new driver's stand so that we can easily fit 10 people up there. So after the next race we should have enough $$$ to get it done.

Make sure the turnout is good. Start telling folks now about the race...new thread!

Was just about to do that. lol Help me spread the word, and for those that think that the one pot thing won't work remind them that if we have enough to have a good size pot for every class then we will do it that way, but we can't split it if there is only going to be a $30 pot.

I can't believe I missed this...
I will bring a Mini Revo, 2wd spec CORR truck, and maybe a open class CORR truck.

I am not sure if I can make it, but I will see ;)

Great, come on we would love to have you race with us. We had a great corr truck race last week. The mini class was good to watch too. I know a bunch of our guys are coming down to Cullman this weekend, I would have been there if not for a head on collision or three lol.

yeah - the corr race was a lot of fun and really close. But it wasn't for the meek of heart... bring your truck and I'll guarantee a rough time.... :beatme:

ha ha - it was fun though

Hunter, I think they are leaning toward a open Corr class. They are having a meeting tonight, so it may get talked about. I worked tonight, so did not get to go. I don't think there would be any need to bring the spec truck, unless you might need a part off of it..gn

And Mr Cobra, if this little man is on his game, he want be around long enough for rough.bg.
See ya Sat Hunter, Good Lord Willing.

LOL! Ya mean he's so fast we won't really be racing him, right? See that don't sound like fun... But he still has to lap us so it'll be alright.:p

mudslinger

We decided to keep it as an open class for now. If we seperate them then we would have to get rid of at least one other class for time purposes. We will run the 4 wheel drives and two wheel drives together but they won't be competing against each other. We've had to do that in the past with buggy and truggy, and it works out fine. But there won't be plaques or trophies unless there are three or more of whichever. Is that clear as mud?
