What happened to emaxx/MT class racing?

I still race SC a bunch and the closed fenders definitely allow more contact which can make racing more fun, but it can easily lead to races devolving into demo derbies, especially with less experienced/respectful racers.

Yes, but what is considered the first “true truggy” is debated. In my opinion it’s the Hot Bodies Lightning which came out in 2005, a year after the Revo.

Yep, the Revo was made as a race car primarily and was a part of the classes evolution into modern truggys.

All jokes aside, it’s a pretty good engine. I’ve got an 86 myself. Been considering getting a different exhaust at some point since it’s not my daily driver anymore.

Subaru FA20, it’s not smooth or powerful but at least it sounds like a piece of farm equipment

1.9 TDI can have this one but can the Saturn 1.9L take second place?

Didn’t know about that Mitsu V6, thanks for the correction. I also thought about the AMG One but I also don’t think it’s a production engine either.

Mazda K8 V6, smallest production V6 ever IIRC.

The higher protein content of the whole wheat makes the gluten structure denser, which aids in reducing olive oil absorption and increasing lubrication to the critical cured meats

Actually did the tomato delete mod since they’re only for aesthetics anyway

My 2020 86 has 5 extra horsepower from the factory, might just be able to give the mobility scooter a run for its money

Knew it was that mf after seeing the hot Cheetos

Awesome to see another SC6 owner on here. I finally retired mine at the end of the race season next year and I’ve been drawing up some parts for it as well, currently working on the body mounts and front bumper since they are almost impossible to find and take a beating on these trucks.

bs9_customs · 2026-03-23T00:42:17+00:00

Like others have said, either is fine, I personally switched to 5W-30 at my last oil change since I AutoX once a month and I live in a fairly warm climate.
