Well Scr8p was the one that coined it and I personally think it would be cool. So let's open it up for other thoughts, suggestions, etc. Maybe if Erich hears enough positive whining about it he can make the other half of his year just as busy as the late summer of last year.

I am one for it.

most likely:

1/12 on-road
1/10 on-road
1/12 oval ?
1/10 oval

and i'm sure a class could be made for on-road converted buggies. i'd build one. :)

as for motor/batteries, it'd probably be along the lines of the off-road nats rules. but i'm just speculating.

losi lovers need not apply. :roll: although maybe I can convert a jrx-2 to an oval bomber with a mcallister 55 chevy body.
I might have to actually finish my BBT sprint project.

I'm sure that there are a couple of losi cars / trucks that are just waiting to run around in circles again :lol:

this would give me a good reason to build my "highway hornet" replica. :)

My 12L would be entered in Concours only if 12th class is asphalt. If its carpet, I'd run it....

you can screw up a car running on carpet, too.
