Which every descent drive gets sick and tired of so the class dies. Here we go again. Let 1/10 be 1/10 and 1/8 be 1/8 thats why they are different.

Although I totally agree with you, and would brofist you, It's unlikely anything will change. We don't decide where we drive. We chase the series and if it ends up at an 8th scale track (which it will) We are stuck with it. That's the reality. Until SC goes 8th scale, or tracks ditch their 8th scale design, We are at the whim of out disadvantage.
(They will not change the track, 8th scale is where their money is)

SC is the "hack class" too, yknow. The few good drivers get mauled in the first corner by said "assholes" then get to play catch up because they were the last to be marshaled the rest of the race. (strategic planning for that aside) SC is the entry into racing, it saved the hobby, no disputing that. But we are the noobies, and when the hobby went downhill, 1 out of 10, 10th scale tracks remained in areas not packed with Team Drivers. And that blows.

It won't happen, the 1/8th guys would never allow a 1/10th to go as fast as their precious 1/8th buggy on there layouts ....

Reality is a bitch

Why did you just flip a bitch and now say the Truck won't perform as intended on 1/8. I thought it just required cheese, WC?

But: You're absolutely right. I see: Unless it's a buggy (1/10 or 1/8), Everything else is not taken too seriously.

Side Note: I really wish they still have the MT Class. That was such light hearted fun.

Watching Scott on LiveRC; I noticed he was having trouble keeping the front end down off the triples. Obviously it didn't hurt him much at all but he was landing with the front end in the air 75% of the time in his last race.

Edited: Seems he's figured it out in the latest heat.
