What makes a class "hot"?
I know for a fact Kevin Kane popularized RCGT at Strictly this Summer, and that Rob King was responsible for getting F1 off the ground at Strictly.
This coming indoor season, especially for Leisure it will be interesting to see how Bernie deals with all the new short course vehicles that have and will come out to compete with Traxxas Slash trucks. Last year it was easy. Stock Slash was just that...a Slash that you changed very little and used a 3800 stick pack. What will the classes for short course be like at Leisure this year??
There's talk of and I want to jump on the bandwagon at Strictly's indoor small scale track of trying to resurrect Mini-Z racing. Well resurrect might not be the word because I don't think Mini-Z racing ever really caught on here in Chicagoland. Stay tuned and I'll bring it back up soon.
Hey, find anything interesting here?

I've had a lot of Slashes (spec (RcPro)) at our track (Outback) this year, but I know SC-10s and mod Slashes are circling around out there. I'm hoping to keep on clinging to the old 2wd, 4wd, truck classes to keep some focus.
ReplyDeleteI love my T4!
ReplyDeleteTrackside will be going to a 2 class format thiyear for the Short Course Trucks. Stock and Open classes will be run. There is rumor that The Track will be opting for foam tires for all truck classes and possibly seeing exactly how the "stock" and "open" rules pan out.
ReplyDeleteSlash racing is over. Long live the SCT class.
