I never raced in the mid 1990's to currently in the 2wd Stadium Truck class being there was never a track to race on near me in Collins, New York. So I made my own off-road track at home 20+ years ago & still use it today to race my Team Losi - XXX-NT, XXX-T, Mini-T, & OFNA - Ultra MBX Buggy.
Thats awesome dude! I wish I had my own track.
You should find a small class that regularly has enough cars to race most weekends. One of the large classes is 1/8 scale buggy, Grasshopper, you ain't ready.
A large class will have so many participants you won't make it out of the B mains. There is nothing more fun that getting bumped out early, I guess you could make a little cash marshalling for people that make the A mains. Won't be long before you are looking for a new hobby.
If you have never raced before and have a little money to invest, go with Stock Slash, all you need is a transponder. They aren't real fast, they have limited adjustability so you can't get your set up so wrong you might never fix it. Covered tires mean you can lean on someone and not wreck. Its too easy to flip because you went too much wheel to wheel.
If you aren't an experienced wrencher, you don't know enough to buy a used car. You can get a "great deal" on something only to have to buy more parts that you would be better off buying new. I guess you will learn to work on it.
Thanks for the video
Glad you like it. Working on Part 2.
I have ftx tracer what shalli do?
It has always been difficult to find 1/16 scale class. Maybe try to trade or sell it and put money towards a car or truck that is being raced at your local track. Tough to answer.
I just bought a used RC10B5M roller, in excellent condition, but I neec all electronics, any suggestions on what Electronics to get?
Also could this car still be competitive at local club races, the one im gonna go to is hard clay
Definitely competitive in novice/beginner class. Run it for a couple seasons and save up for a B7 or newer Mugen buggy that just came out. Check out the Hobbywing Justock esc. Super reliable and you can run it in blinky mode stock class if the track requires. Justock esc is cheap and smooth for the price. I would also grab a programming card for it. Surpass hobby 13.5 and 10.5 turn motors are cheap on aliexpress and amazon sometimes. Noble NB4 radio is the best value and all you will ever need. Protek 140t servo from Amain hobbies or similar, its low profile and good value.
@rc_nature There is a used Traxxas TQI remote near me is that an OK remote? I'm trying to get started as inexpensive as possible, thanks
Track near me has a 21.5 class and a 17.5 class, what eould you recommend to start with?
oh for sure! just get what you can and get on the track. That is most important.@@MX-CO
21.5 will be slower but easier to complete laps without crashing. You will want 17.5 once you get bored after a few races. You could buy the justock 21.5 or 17.5 combo. Its the cheapest stock racing combo for racing. Super good value. @@MX-CO
