NY/NY/CT/PA Driver! The August bash at the Barn...

[lutach]

I'm only going to bring my trucks if I go. All my buggies are down for the moment. How many had truggies at the last bash?

I'm down for the 17th. What about the 9-10th? The TQ Challenge (BBQ Race), if there is enough of us brushless, do you think they would let us race? A couple of my friends are going to race the 2 day event, if I go I'd be the only one brushless and they would probably not let me race.

Opinions?

They seem pretty cool w/ BL on whatever. We were driving the 1/8th BL w/ the nitros. Mike's been going there for like 10 years. If any track is cool w/ BL its Barnstormers. No stupid ass roar lipo rules either. Plenty of plugs inside for chargers too.

I'll see what I can do, my sched is getting pretty dicey for the rest of the year.

You don't need a screaming setup to be competitive there. Like Arct1k said, its more driving ability than anything. I had a 1515 2.5D on only 4S in my truggy and it was plenty of power. Not quite the top end Mike and Chris had on 5S, but still more power than the guys driving .28s and whatnot in their truggs. They will have that course up for another 4 races (see vid in other thread), and its mostly low spd technical stuff. Only one straight and if you can do 35mph you'll be fine.

Cool, my BPP is set for around 33mph, but my MBX5T is only set for 26mph with current motor/battery set up. Oh well, if I go, I will only need to land on somebody's truck that is fast and have him carry me to the finish line .
