Interesting race day on Sunday.

Something was tried and most of the crowd either didn't understand what was tried:confused: or just plain didn't like it.:mad:

The points races will go back to the way they were. Less grumbling.

I have some pics of when it was still asphalt, but not of the newer layouts with the carpet. go to www.rcscrewz.com and there are some pics up. The rug came directly from CRC, i believe.

Who's gonna come out for the points race this Sunday?

Willie and I will be there. Ken, will you be coming out?

We need to get together and spread the word and get some new faces to show up.

Good run Ken. I wish my little battery ejection didn't happen. I made it from the back of the pack to 3rd a couple of turns behind you and that's when the incident took place. I had a really fast car and it would have been fun to catch up to you guys. I got hit pretty hard in the first corner and waited until 8 other cars made it by. 2nd to 10th in 2 seconds. That has to be a new record.

See ya tuesday,

Tim

Was last Sunday (March 20th) the final week of the point series? This week will racing be on Saturday (March 26th)? If so, what time will racing be starting on Saturday?

Thanks

Kevin

PS - What were the final standings for the point series?

Yup, it was the final race of the series. Racing will start up next saturday. This saturday(26th) will be open practice.

I think that racing starts at 3, but that might be re-structured a bit.

1st - Frank Duffner
2nd - Ken Bates
3rd - Tim Stamper
4th - DJ Lecoyer

I think that there were about 16 points between 1st and 4th.

Hi Tim,

Do you think the owner of RCScrewz would be willing to be a race location for one of the three MORL races this summer?

-Rich

Tim Stamper
03-21-2005, 09:31 PM
Rich,

I will ask him tomorrow, but yes, he would be all over that.

My task right now it to promote the crap out of the place. It currently can support about 75 racers. I want to get the pit areas adjusted to double that. The carpet is coming up next month and the asphalt will be cleaned and ready to go. Drop me a line at ttracing@gmail.com if you need any info and i'll get it for ya.

Hi Tim,

Awesome - thanks. Since it rains a lot early in the season, I was thinking of making his race be first since the track is covered.

The race doesn't have to be on a Sunday, so if he holds his regular racing on Saturdays during the summer, that is fine.

I'll let him know. I'm sure that you could still schedule the race on Sunday and maybe have a club race on saturday before it.

Talk to ya later.

Tim - can you do me a favor and find out if I could hold the 1st MORL race on June 12th or June 19th at RCScrewz? I know I had originally said 5/29, but I think I would like to move it to a date in June.

This way the MORL schedule would be:

June: RCScrewz
July: Lazer
August: Hobby Hub

Carpet Might be staying all year tim - some problems with the city for nitro! Besides my xxx-s - I am going to try to run my tc4 again - need some help with gearing.

Monster stock pro motor - 100tooth spur - 58mm tires - which pinion? Also is there a rollout calculator I can use on the laptop?

thanks

I hope not. We haven't had a place to race rubber tire on asphalt since the Canton Riders stopped racing and they always had a good turnout. I think a place that is indoor would be even better cause there is no chance of getting rained out.
