NSCA Summer Series Comp 1 Apr 2nd

[benchemist]

I'd personally like to have the ability to run all 3 classes (assuming you've got the vehicles for it).

From what I've seen, each class of crawler really needs it's own type of course.
A 2.2 Pro course is designed around the need to use Dig.
A 1.9 course is designed around the smaller dimensions of the rigs and full time shafty 4wd.
A Sportsman course should probably be designed similar to a 1.9 course, but for the larger vehicles. It should also be designed that if someone brings a scaler that they can complete at least part if not all of the course. This would also help get the younger drivers aclimated to doing a competition without needing to worry about when and how to use Dig.


If there is a significant concern about excessivly long comp days, I can see several options:

1. If a class has fewer than 5 competitors on a comp day, only 2 courses are run (no finals course).
2. A class needs at least 3 competitors to be run on the specific comp day.
3. We could limit competitors to only running 2 classes.

Just some ideas, and definately open for discussion.

I should be there Saturday assuming I actually get my rigs up and running. If my rear axles don't show up tonight or tomorrow I'm gonna have to throw a set of bully fronts on the rear of my rig and custom make some lockouts.

I know I am only running 2.2 pro and 1.9. I will help judge and setup courses when ever needed. I think the more opportunities people have the better it will be for all of us.

I also think that the comp site will dictate how many courses and classes can be ran at the same time. Hobbytown will be the hardest to run 3 at a time. See everyone on Saturday!!!! Later TY

Personally I think you should only be allowed to run one 2.2 class. So if you have a truck for all of three classes, you can run in comp or sportys, you pick.

If you have kids running sportys I expect you to help them out, that goes with out saying.

Sorry, I won't be there guys, but Tim is out of town this week, so I won't be able to get away from the store.

I did get some cool stuff today for the store. I got some Holmes Torque Master ESC's, some Vanquish rims and the new Axial Ripsaw tires.

I was thinking about picking up the tires, but I'll let Chris buy them first to see if they work.

Yes, yes I am

Well, I'll be there with what I have.
Herbie the monster scx10 and my bandaged bully.

Got some shorter shocks put on the Bully tonight, so I'm sure my setup is still all out of whack.
(Also patched my broken rear axle using an extra Front with a quick lockout link)

I'll try not to be late, but there are a couple errands that I have to run first thing in the morning.

Have fun guys (and Heather), wish I could be there!

no it will be at hobby town... where you guys comped at last time just outside

[Mad Dawg]

Ok. I was gonna come down and run with you guys today. Got the car packed and about to hit the road. Since this comp won't be held at the same place as CSC, I think I will go hang with the Iowa guys today. Maybe I will sneak down for the next one.

even if we did run at hobby town today it will be changed by the time of the comp
