Still a 13.5/27T & 2S Lipo limit for the Rock Cross?

Also, what are the vehicle rules for the Short Course racing?

[Lushtrucker]

I am working on an e-slayer, but once again, everything I have will not fit in the stock class, and if only one other unlimited truck shows it is kinda meh.

Hoping for another good turnout so we hope more modified trucks show up.

Start a head count here if you hope to attend this weekend...

You have no rules in place for a modified (read: brushless) truck to run in the short course racing, so why would they bother to show up?

[fishnstash]

And maybe a class that will let you run a 3s lipo ,after spending $$$ for a good 3s i just cant see buying a 2s just to run.

Hows the turn out for the crawlers? Looks like most are into the rock racing.

Exactly! Once anyone runs 3S in a crawler, there's no going back!

x2 3s all the way

[uberalles]

will there be a 1.9 class......... new losi mini ?

[eHzCrawlers]

This is the feedback we need, we will not turn anyone away, we are needing to know what everyone has and we can tweak the rules to fit everyone in.

We try to make it fair for everyone. If there are more guys running the Slash Brushless then we'll have a class. We try to make it so new people can buy a truck and run it without putting too much money into it.

I know for me I would never run a stock anything, just like most of you guys. The fun is modification!! But we want everyone to feel they are welcome and at the time we put this all together there seemed to be more interest from people with basic trucks but if that's not the case lets change the rules and open it up more.

Please continue writing the feedback, we have only had 1 Rock Cross event so we are open to all suggestions so it's fun for EVERYONE. We put alot of time and money into our tracks and we do not want it to go to waste, we don't want people to not show up just because of the written rules, they were taken from other events and will need to be tweaked for our events here, but we will not know what to fix unless everyone speaks up so thanks to all who have posted here.

Email your thoughts to info@extremehobbyzone.com or call us at 863-229-1172 if you do not want to post it here.

Hope to see you all this Saturday!!!!

Thanks,

Rich

We just got them in stock this week, we will most definitely have a class for them, pretty cool little rig, I'm going to get one for myself to toy around with.

At our first event we had a few. We'll have time in between for gear swaps if you want to run both events, price is the same if you run both. We'll do Rock Cross then Dirt track racing then finish with a Crawler Comp. Prizes for all events.

Schedule is subject to change so don't quote me on the running order but I think that will be the way we'll run it.

If your out there with a brushless short course truck let us know, we'll make a class.

[72Blazer]

I may have missed it on the site,but what is the cost to enter?

[uberalles]

the mini is awsome .... hope you have a class

[72Blazer]

Looks like I will wait and see how many start to show up for the Crawler comps.I'n not into racing rock cross yet.Plus I don't have a 27t motor or a 6 cell battery so I could compete with my crawler.Hate to drive 1 1/2 hrs only to have a few show up for the crawling comp.Not to mention having to pay for just one class.
Also saw where there is a nitro crawler class.We all know there isn't such a thing as a nitro crawler,maybe a nitro rock racer

[uberalles]

any word on how it went this weekend?

[skellyo]

Are there going to be any rules updated for the future Short Course races?

A friend and I would like to come race in November, but the Slashes are both brushless, which you currently have no class for. Also, they'll likely be upgraded with the new Pro-Line tires and beadlocks by that time as well. Would there be any sort of modified class to run in with these trucks?

I'm sure we can make something happen. We will look into this and get something posted ASAP.
