$20 says that a boosted & timed 17.5 will be faster than the 10.5 :wink:

Ya I don't know that much will be A LOT faster than 17.5 on that track but if any cars would handle more power it would be 4wd and I think almost EVERY person that's run it in 3 years has asked for it to go mod.

Ok 4wd has been updated to 10.5 AND 13.5 so you have some options and so it's more "mod".

Sign up's are now posted on rcsignup.com. All pre-race sign up's will receive a pre-race packet full of goodies!

You should do it as Jay Halsey's Worlds car paint job. Seems logical, you've got icons like Masami, the Moo, now it's Jay's turn. Or maybe an Optima or Turbo Optima scheme, I always thought those were some of the best looking box art cars.

Oh, and make your sig twice as wide and four times as high for the 2011 Nats. :lol:

Yeah, I think that might be stretching it a bit.

I was thinking the logo with the colors and pattern as it appears looking down on the top of the car.

Maybe a Sand Scorcher or Rough Rider box art paint job? It sounds like those might be pretty popular in Classics this year, plus it would be good to break up the RC10 theme.

Ya it won't let me set different prices for the classes so I added it to the class descriptions and I have an email in to rcsignup to see if there's any way to change that.
