Nick,

What a bad weekend to do that for me. Its race weekend at MIS, sadly I won't be able to make it.

What time will racing start? I called last night for the address and an idea of how to get there. Forgot all about asking about times. We all race foam tire stock touring over here but we will try to get our hands on some rubber tires.
Are there many people running foam tires or are they all going with rubber for the most part?

Also, will you have quite a few pairs of the CS27s or the RP30s in stock for the event? The dealers we go through do not carry them so about 4 or 5 of us will need to get them at the event. Can you give me a price on each of those types as well?

Thanks!

Nick did say "Any additional classes if there are 4 or more entries", so if you can't come up with rubber tires and bring at least 4 racers, he would make a class for stock foam. Or maybe 18th scale.... (hint, hint)

And tell Dave to bolt that 4-Star motor in and have some fun in Mod class. (And bring extra suspension parts! :D )

I'll let him know. I think he still wants to get some more time with the car and stock motors before he starts trying to go faster. Dave and Derek went down to Larry's and got some Take-Offs. We should be all set for Sunday. Cook said he would run 19t rubber this Saturday at Hobbytown to get some practice before the big race. We're still rallying troops to make the trip.

I'll bring a fan for his Sphere so he shouldn't "go thermal".

Ken - Just tell your wife that you are the king of your castle and will go racing whenever you want to. Then if you regain consciousness by sunday (and whatever she hit you with didn't cause permanent damage), you can come and race. :jest:
