Are these classes 1/10 scale only? May there be any interest in 1/12 scale stock?

Steve, I assume you mean this? If you win 1/10th stock, you can't enter another Regional in 1/10th stock for the remainder of the calender year. You can enter 10th mod or 19 turn or any 1/12 scale class. Thats how I read the rule.

Yeah funny thing is this is why I ran 4 heats and a main last week and I got home around 4:00 pm..... The guy runs a tight ship! Always a pleasure when the races are run like that and also the fact that if you need a minute or 2 he will still give you the time so you can race!!! He isn't that bad at calling races either...Specially for a Mainer hehe Justin

Tom, I would say no you couldnt make it to Logan by 5pm.... by the way it sounds there will be alot of racers @ this event. Of course we'd all like to get out of there by 5pm and Heath does run a pretty fast pace show (which is a good thing) but I do not think it's possible to get to logan by 5pm, I would say like 9pm? Depends on how many racers. Hope this helps....

Tom, you must feel very lucky. 5pm very unlikely. Its like an hr from the track and its in Boston. Most days traffic doesnt move, and if it is then there is a posaiblity of the tunnel falling on ya. maybe a 8 pm flight would buy you some time.

I don't understand, how can you have a ROAR regional and allow non-members to run? I thought that was a requirement.

In an effort to guarantee a strong turn-out for this event Maximus is picking-up the cost of a Day ROAR Membership for any racer that is not a current ROAR member.

That is why we are advertising $35, per class no ROAR membership required.

Hope you can make the event.

Heath...
Chad was wondering ..if you are a member...do you still pay the $35? Not trying to push the subject but he asked me twice (so we are asking you). Or are you just kicking in the extra money for those NON ROAR members?

Im not sure if this is Chad's way of implying he is going..(lol)..or if he is just curious.

Thanks - hope all is well,

That is the cost, no less, no more.

Come on guys, $35 is more then a fair price for a race of this caliber. Look at it this way, those who don't have ROAR memebership should feel guilty for stealing a day memebership from Heath. :)

Wow!

Registration for this event is looking very positive.

We have been receiving many emails and phone calls.

With 27 racers pre-register I do believe we are on our way to another record breaking race.

With talk of over 100 racers attending this event we have secured pit space for 140 racers. Thanks to our new neighbor Fastnal for allowing use to use their extra space to accommodate more racers.

Who is the fastest and will all the major players be attending this event?
