Nitro and petrol ok due to noise levels?? yeah nitro and petrol are fine as its not near any residents i would say any scale cars or off-road would be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiza1208 Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Id go for a run what ua bung event as most people would be happier with that as any thing is well come then but with a limit to the noise made by cars. but its not up 2 me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJCMods Posted May 13, 2014 Author Share Posted May 13, 2014 well i am open to peoples ideas cause this is all new to me so i need help lol so any ideas i will list down and do a format i was thinking doing stages as in Electric event followed by a Nitro then Petrol cause noise wont be an issue. and was thinking of a Budget build Destruction derby just an idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a baja or any 1/5 scale car was to collide with a 1/10 tamiya buggy then theres not going to be much left of the tamiya, seperate classes imo need to be done, 1/10 class, 1/8 class and 1/5 class, im not sure but i dont think running smaller scale stuff at the same time as large scale stuff is a good idea, its asking for trouble.

kiza1208 Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 I would do 4 classes for electric and 2 for nitro and 2 for petrol. electric classes would be brushed car brushless car brushed off-road brushless off-road nitro on road nitro off road petrol on road petrol off road for a event id do 3 races each with points and a final round with some bash time in between for each class. id try to do a event like that if i knew how to set up the classes.
