Lipo Batteries - approved for use at SCH

As of February 8th, 2008 we will be allowing LIPO Batteries to be run here at the track for race days and practice.

Rules for LIPO’s

First all batteries that are charged here must be charged in an approved container. We have charging bags for LIPO Batteries on sale in the store. If not then the batteries must be charged off site.

Fire Prevention: Sand Buckets - which are available around the track. Do not use water or Class A, B or C fire extinguishers. Class D will work, but we do not have this type on site. All LIPO charging must be done in the rear pit area as this is where the fire sand buckets are located.

There will be no exceptions to these rules.
