Following is US-based Goodspeed circuit's next event announcement:
What strikes me that I'd like to point out is that they run downforce limits and this allows cars from multiple manufacturers to race in the same class in a competitive manner. I've always held that different manufacturer's cars can be competitive with one another if we are able to equalize the lap times they do based on motor, weight and downforce (assuming that gear ratio and tyres are similar).Are you ready to break out of the Holiday "Warm & Fuzzies" and get back to 1/32 speed? Then bring your slot cars to Goodspeed Thursday evening January 15 for close wheel to wheel competition. There will also be a chance to try out the new cars that Santa brought as well. Classes will be:
