Ryan are we going to still have sc trucks on the oval this year didnt see them listed. Also you listed sprints those are the sliders correct. The reason iam asking is because iam thinking about buying one this year just wont to get the right car.

So are you switching from Saturday nights to Friday nights?

Yes the Losi Slider is what the Sprint car class is. As far as SC Oval if guys want to run that as a regular class I would do that of course. I would go to spec tire though, (foam or litely threaded tire like the slider rear tires)something that works for traction and does not pull up the carpet fibers.

Maybe something like this:

My Bad....I'm losing my mind...hehe...Saturday evenings not Friday...I'll make the correction above

I'm looking to start racing indoors this winter.

What do you think will be a good class to get into and that will have a large showing?

The biggest class that races there is COT Spec Class. Lots of fun. We are going to try and get a larger turnout for Spec Legends class also.

OK guys, I haven't been here for a bit..Been wrenching like a Mad man on offroad stuff...I Posted the 3 Events Cumberlandrc will be hosting this year at the top of the thread. 2011/2012 will be our best year ever!!

Thanks

17.5 in a legend just doesnt seem right would think it would be one motor only for a Spec class?

so what u guys really using for legends ? ill be looking for a place to run this winter ...

I would suggest you give Ron a call at Breakneck.

He has the largest number of racers running legends and has done testing
of some batteries and motors.

yah ron is cool


plan on racing up thier too

he was testing a duratax photon II or somthing like that
but was trying to see what u guys are running also i have few friends that run down ccr in the winter also

so would like to have the option both places are 45 mins away

Have had a chance to try out the new proposed tire for SC oval racing at CCR this winter. As you may know, The many different types of tires everyone was using was lifting the carpet fibers in the corners.

We have to be proactive to prevent the carpet from being destroyed. We were thinking that the Proline #1167 tire would work.

I installed a set on my truck. First few laps went well...........pushy and loose but controllable. I then put some traction compound on them and found them to be "hooked up". I could traction roll the truck easily.

Soooooooooo..............it looks like we can go with this tire

The Proline number is 1167-01 and cost about $18.00 a pair. Also, Dennis Rushlow has tried these and said they should work. Maybe he can chime in and let us know what he thinks?

Lenny

Hi Lenny, are you guys running an "offroad" track indoors this winter? If so will this tire be used for that as well?

Cheers!
Kevin

are these the only tires u are allowing people to run also ?

Yes and no...................lol

There will be Off Road racing on Tuesdays.
You will be able to use the same tires that you used last year on Tuesdays nights.

The Oval racing on Saturday nights is where you will be required to use the 1167 tire.

They look good to me lets try it see what happens. I will run oval with my truck this year along with my pan car if there is enough to run. Oval is lots of fun cant wait to get started indoors.

Reprint from Hobby Talk for those who do not go there..........

(SPEC TIRES ONLY) Got some very up to date news on the new BSR Spec tires that will be coming out soon. Will try to word this simply as possible.

We are now running green and blue fronts. They will both be discontinued and replaced with white and black fronts. White = Green and Black = Blue.
We are now running green and gray rears. The Green rears will be discontinued and replaced with white rears. White = Green and Gray will remain the same.

Now you must understand that there will be inventory of the discontinued colors all over. As a matter of note, BSR even plans to have blue front tires through this season and some inventory of green tires but once these are gone...........they will be gone.

I am working on getting some new packages (sets) of 4 tires, front and rear. One set would include 3 whites and 1 black and one set would include 2 whites, 1 black and 1 gray.

Will keep you up to date as time moves on. One note of interest.............the whites should be very close in grip to the greens. The black should be a bit more soft (more grip) than the blue but not as soft as the older silver.

There have been rumors about the silver front making a come back............not true.

New Ice, plus new 5" spuare PCV piping for the center rail and front stretch wall.



Sorry for the long wait to get the Rules Posted. Please ask questions know if you one. If there is any gray area assume is not allowed.

Rule #1. All racers are expected to Corner Marshall. If you cannot marshall for any physical reason notify me on race day, you will need to have a replacement person to marshall for you. If you do not marshall nor have a person marshall for you, your best qualifier will be dropped no exemptions.
