Transponders Posted Mon, Dec 19, 2011 11:28am by Matt Lawton
Starting the new year, I will no longer be hand counting anyone. So please ask Santa for transponder or 2. Novice oval class will be ran by a timer and not laps.

transponders Posted Sun, Aug 9, 2009 1:55pm by m henry
every one that has been racing with no transponders will not be hand counted after the race on september the 19th.that should give everyone time to get them.this is all due to the complaints that they were not counted right sorry if that happened all i can say is that if you had a transponder that wouldnt have happened.
New ShortCourse Offroad Classes Announced Posted Wed, Jul 15, 2009 11:44am by Brian Davis
After talking everything over with Mike Henry, we've come up with a solution to the SC10/Slash/Strike debate that should make everyone happy. There will now be 2 classes of ShortCourse trucks.

The first will be ShortCourse Spec. The rules for Spec are as follows-
1.) Traxxas Slash or Losi Strike trucks only.
2.) Stock 12t sealed 550 motors only. No modifications may be done to the motor, and the torque ring may not be removed.
3.) Tires must be either Traxxas Slash or Losi Strike stock tires on the stock rims of the truck they are being run on. Tire treads cannot be cut or modified.
4.) Body must be a short-course style truck body that totally encloses the tires when viewed from above.
5.) The only chassis modifications allowed are aluminum shock caps and RPM molded parts.
6.) Shock oils and pistons may be changed, but the springs must remain stock.
7.) Receiver and transmitter may be swapped out for the racer's preferred radio.
8.) Battery must be 2s Lipo(7.4v) or 6 cell NiMh.
9.) Pinion and spur gear may be changed as long as they can be done without modifying the vehicle in any way.
10.) Drilling/Cutting/Lightening of the vehicle is not allowed.

The second class will be ShortCourse Pro. The rules for the Pro class are as follows-
1.) Any 2wd shortcourse truck based on an existing vehicle which fits the dimensions specified for the ROAR SCT class is allowed.
2.) Motors are limited to no greater than a 10 turn brushless, or a 17 turn brushed motor. Any speed controller which can be purchased over the counter can be used.
3.) Tires are limited to those intended for shortcourse trucks. The tires must meet the dimensions set in the ROAR SCT rules, and the tread patterns cannot be cut or modified in any manner. 1/8th scale buggy tire conversions are not allowed. Ribbed front tires are not allowed.
4.) Battery must be 2s Lipo(7.4v) or 6 cell NiMh.
5.) Although excessive modification is discouraged, as long as the vehicle still meets the dimensions and weight set in the ROAR SCT rules, modifications are allowed.
6.) Trucks MUST have a front and rear bumper of a tubular rollcage design. These bumpers must remain intact during the duration of a race.
7.) Body must be a short-course style truck body that totally encloses the tires when viewed from above.
8.) Swaybars are not allowed.
