Well, I thank you guys for the compliments on RC Pro. We are trying hard to change things. The truth though is the MT and GT classes have been dwindling in numbers as time goes. In my area I think I saw 2 GT's last year at the club, run by novices and they ran with the electrics

RC Pro has opened up the ability to run electrics with the nitro mt's, and we are even talking about combining the gt's with electric trucks and running those in the electric series, just because of turnouts.

If you want to see the classes survive, then sign up for the local RC Pro race in your area and help support them. We are not like ROAR, in that the majority of our racers are not the big name sponsored guys that don't buy the products. It is comprised more grass roots, so to speak, of guys that pay their way. We have to look at numbers and such at years end to decide on how things progress for the following year.

It's tough sometimes to make the decisions. I have been fighting tonight with the locals on why we don't have an electric class in the nitro offroad series. we even said they could race, but points don't count, but that's not even good enough. so after all the aggravation I had tonight, it's really nice to read some good words... thanks again. It's the appreciation factor that makes doing all this hassle as a volunteer worthwhile.
