| 1.9er comp ?
With the 1.9er buggy builds going on, what would it take to make a 1.9 comp series? Who would set the rules? Is it even enough interest? |

Sounds like fun to me, but its going to be hard to get it to catch on 4.25" tires max, max 10" wheelbase |

seems like it would be hard to get a decent set of rules, unless you only wanted to allow buggies. Since the lexan bodies vary so much. Even the hard bodies we use have a pretty broad range. BTW, I think it would be a blast though. |

I think the main thing would be the WB. It could be a spec tire class requiring everyone to run the same tire.

actually 1:18 bodies would be too small. most are around 6-7" wb. tuber it is then.

i say 1.9 tube frames. 10 inch WB 4 cell battery packs, 35T brushed motors, if not even a handout. if they run racers for 8 minute heats on 4 cells, we should be able to run 35T motors off of 4 cells |

Chassis mounted batteries, 6 cell max, I hate to limit motor because it can be hard to find certain ones sometimes. There are several lexan bodies out there that have about a 10" wheelbase. You just have to look. I would have to bet some of the bug bodies we are using would fit right. Ha, I bet that irritated somebody. Bug bodies rule!

i agree 6 cell max/ 2cell li-po max, chassis mounted. meaning not on the axles, knuckles, upper or lower links etc... how about a track width spec? 10" max? |

A 6 cell 1500 2/3c pack, readily available from CBP, Holmes, TCS, and others. Tamiya silver can motor, dime a dozen and easy to come by...great for a handout/spec motor. Tires...thats tough, but I think reduced 2.2's should be allowed. What do you guys think about dig/disconnect? 10" x 10" wb, trackwidth. 12" between gates. Those dimensions might knock out Wheely King axles on width. What about chassis dimensions on tubers... |

I'm down. I'd say tubes or scale body's. 10" wheelbase limit, 9" trackwidth limit, linked or leafed, no dig. |

1.9 comp not scale comp... some of the utah guys already have some 10" 1.9 tubers built up. reduced 2.2 tires should be allowed, just limit the height to 4 1/4... and silver can motors would kill it in my opinion... maybe limiting it to brushed motors would be cool. |
