Street tread version may be used for all event types.  Carpet tread version (Style “A”) may be used for off-road events.  
    • Traxxas Rustler: Must use stock Traxxas Rustler Alias tires in stock front/rear locations – this will help negate the steering advantage the Rustler has over the Slash.

  • Body: Custom bodies welcome! 
  • Drivetrain: Slash and Rustler must retain stock gearing (16-tooth pinion, 90-tooth spur).  No modifications to gears or gearbox/transmission allowed.

  • Summary: Only durability upgrades are allowed, IE, RPM arms, aluminum hubs.  Cars must maintain stock width, wheelbase, suspension geometry etc.
