These cars are Electric Powered 1/10th Scale 2WD or 4WD Touring Cars.
This a newly revised form of Super Stock racing (SSF), designed to work within
the limitations of the EPR track, as such it has been setup to run on commonly
available foam tyres (as opposed to other classes elsewhere running on rubber
tyres).
Foam, having being proven to work well at Brendale, means with a few minor
setup changes, SSF can be a close and fun class for Friday night racing, it has
also be set to use new Zero timing rules, which is designed to keep racing even closer.
These cars generally run a full range of suspension settings, electric cars of
all specs and medium to high end prices, though used slightly older cars
represent very high value for newer racers once you reach this level.
As previously said they will run foam rubber tyres (common shore ratings 35-45 shore
etc available everywhere), and are a single speed system with speeds
altered by gearing, they also use ESC's with zero timing or that support a zero
timing mode, current technology means good run times with hardcase LiPo batteries,
please be sure to have a LiPo charging sack to meet Australian track safety
rules.
They typically run on one of the short track options at our facility on a Friday
night, but any track option can be used.
