Dirt Oval- helpful insight into LTO
Posted: Sat May 30, 2009 1:53 pm
Last night, our last local indoor offroad track ran its final race. We have a couple tracks that are outdoor but they are over an hour away.
Daves place: ( http://www.davesrctracks.com ) has a beautiful outdoor offroad area as well as a dirt oval. I've never had experience with Oval and or Outlaw cars. I was going through some of the ones people here have built and I'm impressed with the quality and detail that goes into these cars.
I have just a couple of RC10s in my collection, and in the off-chance I can make it down to run or race there, I wondered what all goes into making a dirt oval car? will a standard RC10 chassis work? Can the bodies still be found? Aside from Custom Works, who else makes kits? How expensive are they to build and is anything special required?
I already have experience with RC Drifting (i was around in the very beginning before the Yoke kits) So I understand the principle involved (sort of) and if anyone has any good sites for Dirt Oval info, I would appreciate it. Perhaps this could be the collect-all thread for Dirt oval related info/questions etc. (build threads aside).
