Both are run if there are enough cars. Im sure if you are planning on making the trip, you can post when your coming & see who all would like to run. I for one would like to see the 13.5 EDM class run more often !

I would love to see 13.5 EDMs make a return to Bumps for regular race weeks. I miss running mine. The 13.5 LM class is a 4 min demo derby and I shelved mine for that reason. I would pull mine out in a heartbeat to run EDMs again.:greenflag:

Hey Marc,I would do a 13.5 EDM in a heartbeat if they ran regularly.Got my elec. car last year to run EDM but eveyone went Latemodel so thats what I ran.I have been thinking of building a nitro EDM just to try out,they seem to run off and on at least...I think they are WAAAAY cool!!! I'll take the lid off my elec. car right now if they ran more often :thumbsup:
irocz69
December 20th, 2009, 11:17 AM
I am in favor of bringing back the EDM @ Bumps. I also agree w/Marc that the LM class has @ times, more than not, become a demo derby. I believe the only reason everyone went to the LM, is because the Tour adopted them. I grew up around the real Modifieds & would like nothing more then to see them run weekly. I also know @ the OW race the EDM classes were alot cleaner races. Unless you got hit by a car going the wrong way !
Bring back the 13.5 EDM'S :thumbsup:

I'll do an edm in a minute. Heck I'll just bring the bodies next time and run whichever class, not both.

December 20th, 2009, 12:45 PM
I know I would run more often if we ran edm's . 13.5 bumper cars ...aka late models is just not my way of racing. it is this reason why I am going back to my local carpet track.I hope we get a good group of edm's before I go buy everything for carpet,

damn look at me the troublemaker lol. but id love to come down on 30th to play with my 13.5 an nitro edms. and maybe once or twice more before the freeze. so it people are def going to be running that would be great. especially since i dont have any other type of cars to run and its a 5hour drive lol. glad to see the interest back in the dirt mods tho
irocz69
December 20th, 2009, 1:22 PM
Guess its up to Chris if we run EDM's on the 30th. How about a roll call for those in favor & those who can attend. Im sure if there is enough intrest we could run them on the 30th & beyond, so Kenny, don't give up on us yet !

Can't make the 30th. Will try to make the 2nd if I can sneak off for the day. Will bring LM & EDM bodies with me.
Been to a couple of WDRA races. Hope to hit some this year if it works out. Maybe a 13.5 EDM & Sprint.
TBRC1
December 20th, 2009, 8:22 PM
RacerX11 NOPE not him .............the infomercial geek I was refering to was some sort of wanna be body builder with a pony tail.
My 2 cents is when it comes to the electrics I prefer the latemods. Outside of sprints and the street stock classes latemodels are what I'm familiar with in the 1/1 scale world. Well that and I like fenders on my cars. That and I'm not real thrilled with exposed front tires or having to build a body everytime I need one or get an idea for a paint shceme.
I'll stay in the latemodels and have my fun.

My car is already set up as an edm, but I will bring both bodies next time I run, hopefully on the 30th :thumbsup:

You will soon learn......
Be glad I don't run sprints often. Because after running a race w/ me in sprints you will soon learn what many women in the past have learned.
After 4 mins, you are flat wore out!!
Not really sure what happened and how you feel about it.
And are probably missing a few parts.
But you can't get that smile off of your face!
