First off Jeff WELCOME to RC-MONSTER.

I'm from just outside orlando, winter springs to be exact. What kind of BL vechile do you have ?. So far it looks like BL 1/8 buggy might be the easyest class to get started in my opinion. If you would like to join me in helping start this class please respond to the link i posted in my first post & continue responding here as well.

Why does your information say Largo if you live in Winter Springs? My wife and I have some friends in Winter Springs in the Tuscawilla area.

Yep, we need to. I need to call them about it and see what's up with it. I'm hoping to have my Maxx and one of my LSP-R's up and going in the next couple of weeks, so maybe mid-late next month we can go spend a few hours at the track there if it's open.

Ah, ok. Thanks for the clarification.

Just to bump this to the top...

There is a new track in Orlando, only open for practice now, but should be racing by the summer. I'm planning on going with another friend this next Tues to try it out.

The 17th? What time?

All day. I was just at superior talking to them about the track. Sounds great. They will start racing as soon as they have a good sized racer base (when more people here about them). As of this second I would be racing my xxx-t but I hope to sell that and my tt-01 and build a BL Lightning PRO that would race in the nitro class. I sure hope they'll let the BL guys race in the nitro class. But if they don't I guess I'll go nitro.

I don't plan to race unless they have a class that allows brushless and Lipo, whether it's 10th scale stadium or 1/8th with the nitros. However, if they do run a mod ST class allowing BL/Lipo, I'll buy a T4 just to race. If they allow BL/Lipo truggies, I'd run one of my BL LSP-R's. Otherwise, I refuse to invest $ into something to take me backwards in technology and I'll just go on practice days to run.

My friend and I are planning to show up around 5PM. I'm bringing my T3 and he'll have a MM 5700 powered T4. Next time I hope to have my Maxx and one of my LSP-R's out there, but I ran out of time this weekend to work on them.

[skellyo]

Just read that the track is closed today for work on it, so I guess it'll be next week before I make it out there.

[seth556]

Wait it opens at 3:00. I'm thinking I might go Thursday with my xxx-t and rusty. I think a BL/Li-po 1/10 class would be great. I would race my xxx-t. It's a huge track as well. According to their website they have a pee-wee and advanced track. From the pictures I just saw one track though. It was very big for rc so bl would be fantastic.

[skellyo]

Any interest in going out there next Tuesday Seth? I can't make it this Thursday, but I'm sure I could Tuesday next week. My other friend will be out of town on travel for work, so I'll be heading out there by myself more than likely. It'd be nice to have someone else to race around with.

[seth556]

Sorry I can't. I have to help out with the state track meets. All 4 are at my high schools track. Tuesday, Wenesday, Thursday, and Friday. Maybe the week after.

[skellyo]

I can probably handle that. My friend from work will probably be able to head out there then too.
