| levi133,
I thought that 4x4 was going to be it's own class in 2010?
Is there not enough guy's running 4x4's to make it, it's own class? |

| i am in strong support of a SUPER CLASS. Here you run what you brung, and its no limit to drivetrain grit toothed racing. the other "classes" and race day "CHAMPIONS" should be made according to time. not drivetrain. (in seconds...) 3.99 or less or AAA OPEN CLASS 4.51 - 4.0 or OPEN AA Class 4.99 - 4.5 OPEN A Class 5.99 - 5 seconds B Class 6.99 - 6 seconds C Class 7+ seconds Bracket Racing BRACKET RACING ONLY. down south, the CC drag races are come one, come all. on my block, i only race "SUPER CLASS."  |

| Not that I know of but the classes will be announced soon I personally want to race the 4wd cars against the hpi single speed vs single speed.

| I have never seen a 4x4 FG Run so I have nothing to compare it too. Lets take mine and Eli's 5b. He was running close to or exactly 5 seconds at areound 60 mph. My 5B ran around 5.2 - 5.3 at 58mph
What do the 4x4 do in 330 feet? I dont know
So I am going to use that as the standard.
How much faster/slower are the 4x4's?
The point of RCBO is to level the playing fiels and mixing up drive train layouts may take away from that. Personally all that I want when I pull up to the line is to have a chance to win. I do not need to have the fastest title (it would be nice) but I know that is not realistic.
I would imagine a single speed FG versus a HPI Baja would be a fair race BUT Whatever it takes to keep it fair and minimize the bullshit is the what I vote for! _________________ Not Now Chief........I'm in the Fucking ZONE!

| Listen if I didn't think it would be a fair race I wouldn't ask what u think but It kinda seems that u are scared a lil bit but ok This is my thery 4wd cars are very heavy and the have to pull 3 diffs ,and 6 axels with the exeption of the fg belt driven Now 4wd is only a advantage on the line after that its all dead weight. Now 90% of the pepole that have them set them up like a 2wd car single speed vs single speed 4wd will get u off the line but think the 2wd will pull out on top if I'm not drivin.

| Guys, I would think it would be OK if it was a single speed and it met the minimum weight of the Baja class which is 20lbs.

I know and I do not plan on having the fastest title with my baja. If you remember correctly my HPI is COMPLETELY set up for off road and is in no way set up for drag racing. I have numerous basher parts on it and had no regard for the weight and it still ran a 5.3. So for what I do with my HPI it is danmd fast...in fact sometimes too fast for off road as I usually wind up breaking something I go and bash with it. _________________ Not Now Chief........I'm in the Fucking ZONE!
