This year there was a new class at the Short Course Nationals…the Super Mini Class. This consisted of 1/36th scale trucks that were pretty cool to watch but took a good 2 minutes to make one lap.

Ok, ok, not really. These were actually a set of upcoming Short Course trucks that are being released by the Lego company. These are the first prototypes made from scrap parts but will be put into full production very soon. They will be available in different colors and, possibly, many more styles. Keep an eye out for them…they’ll make cool desktop trophies!

Ya, I really thought these looked pretty cool. I have an idea for them, too (have to run it by King Greg first).

woah, had to reset my mind there.

they look smaller then '36th. the losi micros are 1/36th, so unless the trucks are being worked on by a giant, those arent 1/36th. closer to 1/75th (whats hotwheels scale again? I know its super close to HO train scale.)

iv herd 1/43 and iv herd 1/64. i always thought they were 1/64. i think people have started changing the scale of the scale in recent years :confused:

I changed the title to 1/64th. I think that is the correct size.
