There's always next year! I am fairly sure the large scale field will be twice as large next year. Everyone I talked to said the 1/5-scale looked like the most fun of any class.

[@RCTruckStopVideos]

It looked like so much fun, many of the people watching left wanting 1/5-scales.--Matt Higgins

[@RCTruckStopVideos]

Glad you liked the video and I hope you get one soon.--Matt Higgins

[@sly41985]

this is so sick! i wish they had this around upstate NY!

[@RCTruckStopVideos]

That's exactly what that is. Good eye! Thanks for watching.--Matt Higgins, RC Truck Stop

[@RCTruckStopVideos]

I agree. I would turn marshal from a distance. The good news is I didn't see a single issue, but the potential was on everyone's mind. Thanks for watching and commenting.--Matt Higgins, RC Truck Stop

[@RCTruckStopVideos]

Yes, it rained pretty good. Total downpour at one point. Check out the full article on the race at RC Truck Stop

[@RCTruckStopVideos]

Most of these are running stock gas-powered engines. Some have been converted to electric.--Matt Higgins, RC Truck Stop

[@RCTruckStopVideos]

You are up there. Well, maybe a road trip someday.--Matt Higgins

Great video! Is that halved PVC pipe under the spikes!? Damn that's a good idea!

[@RCTruckStopVideos]

You may be in luck. I believe they have had large scale races in NY--even upstate. How upstate are we talking? Where about do you live? There's a 1/5-scale track in NW CT.

Good Stuff, Wish I was there

[@nitrorcraces9383]

love the losi's but who ever is driving the 5sc is doing a dam good job .. 2wd and hanging with the 4wd i think the driver is doing a impressive job ..great video.

[@mishalalsubeai601]

I dont know, but i think the 5sc is the flux version as the whole body of the car is covered. If you listen to the sound of these trucks, you will hear a battery powered car, and i only hear it when i see the 5sc

[@Finishlinemotorsports]

At 2:10 you hear the gas motor on the hpi 5sc

[@rckiller6422]

Hpi 5sc is 4x4 not 2wd

[@gbc101498]

Awesome Dit it rain that day cuz the track was all muddy

[@mackfrizzle5045]

Where is this track because i'm in Rochester NY?

[@XXniccloXX]

what is it with people on KZbin wanting to shove their music down our throats. video was great muted though.

[@TheMrk29]

love it!!!!!

[@MrEli204]

Turn marshals better have their head on a swivel. An 8th scale buggy coming at you full bore is bad enough, can't imagine one of these monsters bearing down on you.
