They are just startind out again
So it is kind of laid back and run what you brung but the main classes are 10th s stock truck and nitro monster and electric MT

I will have my 13.5 brushless truck there and my nitro 10th there also
I will also have legends there if ppl want ot run on the concrete oval



Where are you located and do you think you might make it Sunday

I'm in Grand Rapids. There's a couple of us here that like to travel to see different tracks. Not this weekend but most definitely later in the season.... So the 13.5 is allowed. Am I to assume lipo's are allowed as well.

I don't run the track a friend of mine does in Gaylord
He will be on here soon and will be able ot answer more ? but from what I know 4-5 makes a class I don't have lipos except an 3cell one and my Novak wont handle that
As far as I know I am the only one with a Brushless truck but I will have it there incase more come I will mainly be racing my stock truck

LMK when you guys plan on coming and and I will make sure I get a group from my home track in Saint Ignace to come down too

Will do. How far would you figure the track is from Grand Rapids?

P.S.- Wouldn't guess a fella with your screen name would be too keen on lipo's. ;)

I am the one running the track in Gaylord. We will run just about anything, as long as there are 4 in the class. The oval is concrete that has been ground and seasoned a couple years, hardly used. The off-road is loam and I've been told somewhat technical. Any ?, let me know.
