Doors open at 10am, and qualifying will start at noon.

Kyosho and Atomic have sponsored the event with prizes, I have heard that there is a big package on the way.

We want to show the locals how much fun and competitive Mini-Z can be, and help them get some club racing running. They would like to host an event every other month.





2019 we will be seating down and getting more dates so there will be more MINI Z racing. dust off your car and get ready for more fun again

I'm always down for f1. Sign me up for all classes, whatever people want to run.

90 seems to be popular. I haven't driven mini-z f1 in so long, I miss it so much.

For f1, I might suggest 2S 3500 as the maximum for the MC3 chassis, 5600kv AAA and 43t brushed. This should keep speed in check, but allow non kyosho chassis to complete. With the kyosho chassis discontinued, and parts availability a concern... it would be hard to get new cars on track.

As much as I would like to say 90mm as a pick up 4th, F1 deserves some love. Especially with the aftermarket chassis development that has taken it to the next level. Truly some nice F1 stuff out there now, even the 3d printing stuff is on point, ask Kris

The Kyosho F1 has been discontinued for some years now. Finding replacement parts is becoming more and more difficult. Their last chassis run was in 2009 I believe. Before the MR03 was released, using the MR02 ASF boards.

4th class

Yes, I was thinking F1 but your right EMU the car has been discounted from 2009. I was thinking more like the LM class with a 50turn or 5500k motor. AAA batteries. Things that are on the Shelf or to buy easy. I like the 90mm from the Maryland group. but here my top 3 picks I would like.


1 LM class with 5500k or 50turn
2 Open 90mm car
3 Pancar ?
4 F1

again just getting ideas.

You're special motor that sai wanted to buy is not allowed! I think 48t, 50t, x-speed, 5500kv, 5600kv.... are all around the same speed. Basically, action stock speed.
