[Heckler]

But... but... I don't have a pro or shafty comp car..

[JeepinDoug]

Now you'll get to watch all the fun.
And get bit by the bug.

So what exactly constitutes a "comp pro" rig exactly? Size? Frame?

[Heckler]

So wouldn't my wraith be considered a shafty?

3) 2.2 Shafty: No Change.
Still must run a body!
Bodies must be 3” minimum height on sides. No less than 12.5”
total length and full original width, and no less than 5” in center.

[JeepinDoug]

The wheelbase cant be any longer than 12.5" , unless that has changed but I doubt it.

[Heckler]

My MRC wheelbase is less than 12.5 What if I just throw on some 2.2 wheels

"Pro rig" or 2.2p or even 2.2 pro is more whats allowed more than what's not allowed... All of them (except Chino) are MOA rigs like Berg or XR10 based rigs. Wheelbase is limited to 12.5", track width is limited to 12", there's rules on the dimension of your body panels or body, wheels must be 2.2", your only allowed front wheel steering. If you're interested, the best bet is to buy a proven one from the for sale section, building one that works well is quite the endeavor-as I'm realizing right now with mine.

Sportsman or 2.2S or even Sporty are usually heavily modified Axial based rigs. Same dimensions as the pros but they can only have one motor and no dig, and must run a one piece body-no bodiless rigs allowed.

[picklewagon]

I'm going to try to get out for an hour or so around 10:30.... If I finish cleaning the basement tonight that is!

[Heckler]

I'll be there for a bit also..

[picklewagon]

Well I'm not much of a baseball fan, but EVERYONE I work with is and they want to beat the game traffic as well-so we're taking a nooner on Friday. I'm considering an afternoon hour at G-tec if anyone is interested.

[Heckler]

I'll be out tomorrow but am going to try and go a bit earlier, I'll post up in the morning before I leave confirm the time, probably shoot for 8:30 - 9:00

[Heckler]

Im heading out there now... should be there in 20.

[ItsDaKine]

cool, On my way there now

[JeepinDoug]

Cant make it today.
Next week I could only make Saturday.

[picklewagon]

Yo!! Sunday the 9th is NorCal rcrc comp #2... It's in the east bay I think, you all should come!

Yup... Pleasant Hill

[Heckler]

Is this another "comp" type car only event or will there be other classes for scalers and such to participate?
