In MY opinion, truggies are the evil spawnchild of a bastardized family.
Truggies adulterate, bestialize, brutalize, corrupt, debauch, degrade, demoralize, deprave, pervert, vitiate, and warp the good name of RC. Why dont you go race in the Radio Shack nationals.

i figure that they wont be able to keep up with 1/8th scales so that would stop people from tryin to truggerize there buggies and race in MT. If they want to race it would be in 1/8. But whats the diffrentce on some monsters and some truggies

Even the name "Truggy" is stupid.

Ok I feel personally that the truggy came about when someone with a BUGGY could not win in his class. decided to toss some MT wheels on it and superglued a monster body on it in hopes of taking the far dominant lap times of his BUGGY and running against TRUE trucks.

Truggys, dont matter what you drive. If you suck, a truggy aint gonna help you out. I think locally they should be allowed to race with the MT's. For actual organized events they should not.

I couldn't resist not to goof off so I put down 'special olympics'  . I don't think it really matters where they go but it seems M/T seems okay for now. They aren't as fast as buggies so the only other class close is M/T. If in the future there is an adequate number of truggies and they begin to dominate the M/T class then maybe they should have a class of their own. Then again too many classes less run time for each class. Talking about truggies that HB lightning pro looks good too bag it's an rtr with a cheap radio. |

Well:
I hope I don't qualify for the Special Truggy Olypmpics.
I'm racing a old Kyosho 7.5 that I can't sell for oh my but changing it over to a truggy should be fun.
As to driving, I can only get better....age is a figment to my mind...hehe.
See you all at the WCORCS races.
Don

stonesavage:
The only major rule for the MT class this year (WCORCS) is you are not able to use the thin racing style MT wheels and tires. All MT's must have at least regular T Maxx size wheels and rims to keep the MT look. As of now all the MT's will race together regardless of engine size. A good driver will prevail in my mind on the track over any equipment differences. Looking forward to seeing you at the Series races.
Inferno:
I'm sure you will be happy to try that.....but succeeding won't be easy my friend!.....hehe!

At Kamikaze Raceway, everyone can race, no matter what they bring to the race. We put the oddball vehicles into the class that they best fit.
That being said, we also don't want them to have an advantage in the class we put them into. Truggies would probably be put in with the Monster Trucks. I suspect they will fit fairly well there. If the Truggies have a huge advantage or start to dominate the class, they would either be placed in a class of there own (if there are sufficient numbers) or in 1/8 scale (if there';s only one or two). The logic is that the cars that don't fit a class should be at a disadvantage (if anything) and not at an advantage.

I think the whole Poll was meant as a joke.  Team Kaos has a twisted sense of humor. Roger Always finds a class for people to race in. If you show up you will get to race with someone. It's more about the Fun. In any case, The winter nationals ran them with the monster trucks and they didn't seem to have any advantage. One thing that was interesting is that some of the Revo drivers were using 1/8 th scale wings and mounts in stead of the lexan wing that comes with the body. It looked kind of nice and they held up better than the lexan wing. |
