My 2020 VONATs runners are almost ready for this years race. Still working on a RC10T as well. Plan on switching up between rounds and running the funnest ones to drive.

Nice Mark!

I'm not sure I follow - are you saying you will have two entries for 4wd, and two entries for stadium truck (including the 10T not shown)?
And you will try different cars in different heats?


I plan to enter at least a couple classes this year, not sure exactly what I will bring yet. :mrgreen:

Yes, I'll just swap out my transponder between vehicles.

Mark, you need a 2wd buggy and a Classic 4wd buggy!

I had setup a XX buggy, but I ended up selling it. Maybe if I find a good deal on a nice RC10B2/B3, I liked those cars. I wouldn't mind building another NIX91.

You should get a Pro-X. Maybe I can build you one ;)

Actually, I probably have more parts to build you a mid-motor Pro-X (different gearbox parts)...

There is nothing significant about the car, it's pretty much box stock. I cut off the hex from the standard front axle, drilled a hole, and put on a B44.3 12mm front hex, and a B44 rear hex on the back to use current wheels. Made my own sway bar and mount.
