Hey Team Mate. I've stayed up a there few times and there are a bunch of motels pretty close. Red Roof not too far. Econo Lodge(I think) is real close too.

Kind of like a pre-regionals warm-up race as we will host the Region 8 Oval race next year in March.

Being that this is not a required pre-sign up race not sure on class count totals. I see stock and Brushless being the biggest classes I know the 19t class will be ok if all who said they were going to make it show, I'm sure mod will have plenty.

This is going to be a yearly race so I hope it gets bigger every year last year was a blast. Good racing and good people to hang with.


Thanks guys for your support

Hey guys, I stayed at the Rodeway Inn at 70 and 7th last weekend. I talked to the desk guy tonight and he can give us a group rate. The Super 8 that Sonny talked about is just right up the street I think.The motel is only about 5 minutes from the track
It cost us $39.76 with tax last week, he told me he would give the racers a discount. Tell the person, you are there for the RC race at Fastlane RC Raceway.

Should be a great race.

In the 4300 brushless class the Novak GTB and LRP Sphere are OK to use. It was brought to my attention and I conversed with some fellow Brushless racers and that it would be in better intrest for those to be OK'ed for the Grand Nats and for the class all together.

Again
4300 classes Must use Novak Brushless 4300 Motor, you can use any Novak Brushless controller or the LRP Sphere.


10 more days till the big Oval Race.
