Mann's RC (Ruskin, FL)

On Road / Oval Day!!

===

SC10GT-E

Decided to build a Oval SC!! Put the AE 3300 system in out of a T4 RTR.

B3 rear buggy wheels on the front and T4 rear wheels on the rear.

Wasn't the fastest SC BUT was the best at the turns!!!!!

TQ'd both qual's and won the main.

Spec-R S2

Planed to race Supertruck (Oval) BUT they put us with 13.5 TC's (On Road)!!

Made body change from Supertruck to TC. 

Changed left front spring from Blue to Gold. Normally, would change right front from Gold to Blue. It's a oval thing, stronger spring on right front shock.

The Spec-R S2 has always had a twitchy run on a straight, NOT now!!!!  YEA!!! Gold springs!!!

TQ'd both qual's and won the main!!
