So THAT'S what's wrong with you!

A lot of tires work well at Jakes. I run Pink Taper all around. They don't feel as good as other tires, but they run faster lap times, and that's what matters, right?

Other tires to try would be Hot Bodies Pink Gigabytes, Pink Beams, or Proline Green Bar Codes. Super soft tires seem to work best. If dirt is added or changed this year, this is all subject to change, but we'll all be starting from scratch in that case.

Just wanted to let everyone know there is a New Micro rc track opening on 21st and Wanamaker, behind Sonic, in the Squeaky clean/Rockstar detailing building. We are set up with lap counter, rental cars (1/24 losi brushless rally) and can accommodate birthdays and private group race parties for kids and adults. Track is a nice 14ft X 38ft with 3ft lanes (huge for micro) track on smooth garage floor that is prepared with sugar water, but will be full carpet by end of next week.

ROAR rules are written by a committee and updated yearly. If they are followed by everyone, you can race anywhere and not have a problem being legal.

Alternatively, you can have your own ruleset, like onroad around here, and have a group of people that can't even recite that rules, or allow people from out of town into the race because they don't have a spec motor or they didn't know timing wasn't allowed, or something dumb. Ask them where you can read about the rules too

Follow the ROAR rules and have fun racing.

17.5 blinky is some of the closest and best racing I have seen at Jakes and other places. Even in open corr, 17.5 is more drivable and will often out qualify/win those with anything more.

so yeah, run whatcha brung! (ROAR legal)
I have to say that John makes perfect since if we follow RAOR rules. This means that any one from any track can come and race with us and the opposite applies for us if you go making new rules and restrictions it will/could hamper others from coming to our local track and running I personnel like to see as many people at the track as possible the 17.5 no boost run watch bring motor makes for the most exciting racing that I have been involved with I love the close racing this is where you prove yourself as a driver and gain the confidence to move up in classes
