the rules should stay the same as last year, as well as the classes.

i'm sure once the dates are confirmed, they'll start a thread with a new flyer.

I ran 2wd buggy and 2wd truck, I'm thinking of building either a classics class car or a Heavy Metal class truck.

the more entry level type cars the better... :wink:

Any chance of a super stock, like 19 turn, 10.5 brushless class? Maybe we could call it open, you know run what you brung and hope it's enough. It'll probably still be slower than Westerfield but it would be fun.

Aaaaahhhh crap! I'm about to get passed by that orange truck!

I'd be surprised if they did, last year, a lot of people also asked for a Mod/10.5/19T class, and they stuck to their guns regarding motor limits.

But you know how life is, things can change... :wink:

OK,

So I talked to John/Mark (RCHR) tonight, the dates have changed,

The Vintage Nationals will be held September 18th, 19th and 20th and that's coming from Mark and Jonh directly.

The Rules will Remain the same, Pre 1994 Vintage Cars, Using 17.5 Brushless Motors or 24T stock brushed motors.

Hopefully we'll se ya there guys.... :mrgreen:
