SHADOW 08-30-2005, 07:43 PM Hey Joe did you mean skill or skull????:jest:
bsracing8 08-30-2005, 08:41 PM joe what is a good tire combo for the new carpet? if you would like to share?
Brandon
mjmeer17 08-30-2005, 08:50 PM run 4 round black ones! brandon with all the info you've been learning you should tell us! just kidding with ya. hope to be there for the first indoor race
Porksalot4L 08-30-2005, 09:17 PM umm try pinks and purples brandon. should hook you up good i think. maybe just try the tires you have now im sure they would work. :)
joe ivo
PUF19 08-30-2005, 09:23 PM Brandon, i think white rears and black fronts to start with, as NEW carpet has little traction, untill some compound get's laied down...
Nick
Mr.fastman 08-30-2005, 10:25 PM Joe - I'm good racing when I can, how about you? Do you think many guys will run mod indoors?
Doug P
bsracing8 08-30-2005, 11:04 PM thanks for the info on the tires guys!!
Brandon
jbm38 08-31-2005, 04:44 AM Any new information on the carpet. Are the discs gone?
Porksalot4L 08-31-2005, 11:35 AM Doug as far as mod goes i think its possible. a few years back Marshalls had a really great mod group there. especially at the bigger races. so we will have to see. im sure if some of the really fast guys start it out then others will try also.
john the discs arent gone yet. but the ice is down and the discs are way back from where the line would be. they will be gone once bill finishes everything. i really dont understand why the discs are there still but i know withen a week they wont be there. thankfully. the ice is awesome though. it only slightly upsets the car rather then sending you to the outside eveyr time lol. your gonna love it!

ovalrc 08-31-2005, 06:57 PM Joe, what have you been using for traction compound on the new carpet? I know you guys can't use the old paragon, I'll need to know for when I come up.
Thanks, Bill B
bologna 08-31-2005, 07:03 PM joe YOU AND ME ...... WHEN I COME UP THERE YOU BETTER BE READY TO GO TO THE TRUCK........ :thumbsup:
Porksalot4L 08-31-2005, 08:55 PM OvalRC so far i used both tq mod and jack the gripper. and jack the gripper so far felt better. but relaly i think any of the compounds should work well. yes no smelly paragon! :)
BROCK- dont worry i plan on it man! sept 17th? you gonna be there? i dunno if i can be there till the beginin of oct. unless it rains ofcourse cuase i announce for a local dirt oval track till then. but after that ill be there alot! especially OCT 7, 8, 9th :) thats gonna be sweet
joe ivo
dave w 1 08-31-2005, 09:17 PM THE STRAND WILL BE MY HOME BECAUSE SUNDAYS i dont work saturdays maybe 1 nce per month untill i get closer to the birds then il be there
bsracing8 08-31-2005, 09:24 PM cool will it be stock or 19? Joe are u going to the birds this year?
Brandon
bologna 08-31-2005, 10:00 PM im going to try to come up before the orl race maybe the 17th or the 24th... after that bow season opens and ill be straped to a tree intill mid nov. i will be up for the orl and once the season is over if the turnout is good ill be up more often.
my vote is for stock intill the orl race do to the fact that the 19t class for the orl is small and sometimes they dont even run it..
joe once hunting is over let me know if you would be up for a weekend trip up to k&n ill drive if you want to split a room and gas and BEER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mr.fastman 09-02-2005, 11:00 PM Can't wait!
bsracing8 09-02-2005, 11:06 PM PUNK? I really don't think i am a punk but whatever..
bsracing8 09-03-2005, 01:17 PM so who is racing tonight on the aspahlt?
Brandon
jbm38 09-04-2005, 08:08 AM What are the planned weekly classes?
SHADOW 09-05-2005, 11:18 AM Got a chance to run the new pro3 sat night on the carpet before we ran on the asphalt outside. Track is smooth and with the groove working in the traction is picking up in the carpet.
Porksalot4L 09-05-2005, 03:06 PM John you k now how marshalls is with classes so you can imagine just about anything. which i think kinda sucks. but as far as pan car classes i think weekly there will be a good Busch, 19t, and stock class. and i think it should be a good turn out the whole season. im hopeing full A and B mains in those classes. we will see though. plus if we could get guys that wanan run mod im sure that would be a good class also. hope this helps.
joe ivo
Mr.fastman 09-05-2005, 07:53 PM It would be fun to have some Mod.
mjmeer17 09-06-2005, 09:07 PM so, how does the "ice" look ?
bsracing8 09-06-2005, 10:51 PM Mark i think the ice looks good! Dirk said if you hit the ice wher it starts to make the turn he said you car will be up to the wall! Are you going to be able to make it the 17th?
Porksalot4L 09-06-2005, 11:21 PM your right Doug mod would be so awesome. and mark the ice looks good you will like it!

Brandon
Porksalot4L 09-08-2005, 01:08 PM hey CONKLIN BOY! your a super hero now adays :) and i agree with mark you should be marshalling some place even on a thursday lol. i plan on runnin mostly 19t this year. but ill run stock also if hte class is big. :) i think it will be.

joe ivo
bsracing8 09-08-2005, 07:40 PM haha joe you are prb right about the b main!! But i hope i can shine this year! I Think i would have a better chance in stock then 19t?
Anytime72 09-08-2005, 09:03 PM Hey Brandon make sure you bring $50 on the 17th.
ovalrc 09-08-2005, 09:36 PM Hey Walter, just talked with Jorge, he's thrashing on his batteries for this weekend, sounds like a good time, we don't get much asphalt racing in my neck of the woods. But we're already seeing things pick up on the carpet. Looking forward to running with you guys again, good luck this weekend, Bill B :thumbsup:
Anytime72 09-08-2005, 10:51 PM Will you be down on the 17th? I'm not sure if I can make it. I don't have the luxury to race every weekend. See you soon.
Walter
ovalrc 09-09-2005, 08:40 AM My racing is limited till the end of Sept, we run every saturday till then at my uncle's track in New Hampshire. After that I will be making some appearances. I'll keep you posted when I know when. As usual I will try to get some others to make the trip with me.
bsracing8 09-09-2005, 03:38 PM Walter are you going to be at marshalls the 17th if so i will 50 for you! Thanks again!
Brandon
