Mark Enderle replied to Michael Martinez's discussion Schedule conflict...? I don't know of one....yet."@ Bruce & Mike I'm almost positive there was talk of manufacture choice previously. I don't remember it being bodies, but engines. It was said right in line with shocks, tires,& # of crew. Maybe since then RG's decided a fleet…"
Bruce Smith replied to Mark Enderle's discussion SST Engine"I guess I "assumed" more than what was really said, but it isn't worth my time to go back and see what I thought I remembered. Might have been a post by another member or something too.
So they are Traxxas trucks. OK, at least that is…"
Trooper Blue replied to Mark Enderle's discussion SST Engine"Page 12 of the SST rules makes mention of have a manufacturer's championship for truck mfg. My guess is that's where some people are getting the idea that there's options as far as manufacturer goes.
i never understood how having…"
Mike Kenyon replied to Mark Enderle's discussion SST Engine"@Bruce, I've never seen/heard/read that there be different manufacture bodys available. The SST partners decided on the final body style,that is not a named truck manufacture,thus inclusive with out the expense of many different body's…"
sabreguy replied to Mark Enderle's discussion SST Engine"Unless Ford,Chevy,Toyota........is throwing some $$$$$$$$ Robby's way, why should he do any advertising for them?"
Bruce Smith replied to Mark Enderle's discussion SST Engine"And COTish in that they all are going to run the same body. I wanted to see Ford guys get a Ford front group and so on. Isn't that the way this program started off?"
Mike Kenyon replied to Mark Enderle's discussion SST Engine"@Mike, IMO the ability to tune 'your' shocks and run 'your contract'd tires' is a huge bonus to the series.It's inclusive. Just like allowing any sponsor,even if it's a competitor of say, Speed Energy.…"

Mike Schultz replied to Mark Enderle's discussion SST Engine"Problem is you can't call it an "IROC" like series if you don't run the same tires, shocks, ect...... You have too big of open rule book if you bring in multiple tire manufactures with out specifying a "definite" size…"
George Ferrer replied to Mark Enderle's discussion SST Engine"Guess this means its all on the driver, not like NASCRAP or F1? Am I wrong?"
Mike Kenyon replied to Mark Enderle's discussion SST Engine"@MJ, As memory serv's,there was basically two rules on tires.Size and DOT.Tire contracted drivers can use the manufacture of tire they are contracted to.TOYO is Robby's,RIcky Johnson-BFG.as an example. I don't remember if ,say Ricky…"
Michael Martinez replied to Mark Enderle's discussion SST Engine"After the bouce house NASCAR affiliation with what seems to be to the naked eye not much loyalty from the car makers yea I know. The Stock car manufacturer thing reminds me of a case of heart burn I had .......couldn't give the stuff a way.…"
"Any other manufacturers signed up for sure besides Toyo ? Is Toyo a for sure deal ? Will involvement depend on what drivers sign up . Also will all tires have to be a 37 or is that a maximum size and you'll be allowed to run smaller if desired…"
