I don't see how club races would care if you run Lipo's or not. It seems pretty lame in my book. Thats like saying you can't run 30% nitro fuel, you can only run 20% or less. Or you can't use O'Donells fuel you have to use Traxxas Top fuel.

Besides, Nitros are better than electrics anyways... right?... :030:
Well, the track owner is afraid of the dangers of Lipo's, and they have a rule limiting stadium trucks to 20% nitro. We got a few flyboys that tell horror stories about big fires and damage(no injuries, thankfully), but the track owner says; if he allowed them and somebody got hurt it could ruin him.

But he said i can use them for practice and play time between heats, so i'm going to prove how safe they can be, and how powerful they are. My aim is to get enough people behind me to push approval at my track. I already told him if and when he allows them i'll draw an outline for safely handling themand even do some teaching if necessary. but its inevitable that they will be allowed eventually


Work because i gotta, play because i wanna

People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise
