Raymond River Run April 20 2013 2nd Annual

[Docwolf]

I like that term too, "Street Truck". I agree that the classes need to separated, there are things a wraith Does really well that a street truck can;t and then on the flip there are things a street truck does that a wraith can't. Though i think Nuckel with his Wraith Axles is kinda stuck in the middle LOL, those suckers are wide.

Yours is a street truck on a frame with 2.2.
You would run in Street Truck 2.2. so you qualify for the Recovery Relay.

Remember guys, there are 2 types of events. GTG's and more formal events (more like comps). The Raymond River Run falls into more of the GTG. The host of the GTG can set up events for that particular GTG. The whole idea is to have fun.

As far as I know, we dont have a set of rules for the club yet.

Geno put on a great event last year, and I think this year will be even better.

And just so you know, the Wraith does have a frame. It's a tube type frame instead of a c-channel type frame. But that has nothing to do with the event.

Maybe we should simply keep a running "list". If there's anything that needs voted on, we should vote (like what classifies as a "frame") I'm not sure where I stand on this, but I'm fine with having a Wraith "specific" class. (Almost makes me want to find a Wraith)

Don't you dare. I've been fighting the urge, and you having one would put me over the edge!

Don't fight the urge. Everybody's doing it.

For me to own a Wraith (or any new RC truck), I'd have to win the lottery... so you're in the clear

We don't have to wait till April, this is just the earliest scheduled event. Maybe someone else would like to host something sooner..............

I just saw that thing. I would consider selling the Wraith for that.

[MacJamez]

If its not cheaply built I will get one. I'm gonna wait for someone else to get it and review it before I pull the trigger.

I spoke to soon on this. The Raymond River Runners board discussed this last night. The axles are wraith so it would be in the Wraith class. Sorry for the first incorrect ruling.

So how about a Wraith tube chassis on SCX10 axles on 1.9 wheels? I know of 1 maybe 2 that will be there.

[G-FORCE]

Well its not on a "conventional" frame. So that eliminates the street truck class's. And its got wraith parts but if I say run with Wraiths then someones gonna not like that. At this point I may just suggest we go to only 2 classes of street and eliminate all the others. The main reason for the change was to provide a class for the 2.2 truck. Which to me represents a street truck with 40's,44's,48's etc. 1.9 represents 38,35,33, etc. I think its simple and makes sense. But that's just me. I guess I'll make a suggestion to the board any hybrids are automatically in the open class.
