View Full Version : On Road @ Hobbytown Usa, Greenwood In
rockin_bob13 07-23-2007, 07:39 PM OK. It's on. Parking lot racing at Hobbytown USA in Greenwood, IN. I finally got everything together to do it. Racing begins Sat. Sept. 8th, and every Saturday on until Oct. 27th as the last date. Touring cars, gas and elec. Stock and mod. Would like to see at least 4 cars entered to make a class so we have enough turn marshalls. $12 entry fee, first class, $5 for each additional class. 2 heats and the Mains. BC

jason crist 07-23-2007, 09:48 PM what's parking lot racing ?
Crptracer 07-31-2007, 04:47 PM Crist ...no since in explanin it to you cause you must be able to turn RIGHT and left......I know its a scary thought ...just calm down....Maybe BOB will let you run your Pan around the outside of the track layout...Hehehehe
Crptracer 07-31-2007, 04:51 PM Bob I allready have 5 touring 13.5 cars ready to go....I want to get some of the guys from FT.wayne to come down....But will see...What about power....Heard rumor of a generator......If not I will bring my own if thats cool....Worried about the noise...
Crptracer 08-01-2007, 11:55 AM Rockin.....you carry CS-27 tires or RP's....30 or 36's
rockin_bob13 08-02-2007, 09:56 AM I have cs 20's and 24's @ the N store. For racing, I'm planning on keeping John's BSR electric sedan tires: purple, pur/org, pink/org, 2pink, team purple, and nitro sedan tires35 and 40 shore fr and rr.If there is some tire combo you want at the store, tell me. Bring your own power. No power available on site. Pop-ups :thumbsup: BC
Crptracer 08-03-2007, 05:25 PM Thanks for the info.....Just out of curiosity how big do you think this track will be cause I am trying to get some nitro guys and there looking for a big track...I say isnt everyone but if you have an idea that would be outstanding......I have my fingers croosed that you will set up something at New castle that could be setup as a pretty big road coarse for sure....Keep me posted and I will let you know on the tires.....
Crptracer 08-16-2007, 06:21 PM wow this thread is like a ghost town.......oooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhooooooooooohhhh hhh spooky
rockin_bob13 08-17-2007, 09:55 AM Not small.
jason crist 08-17-2007, 09:40 PM crptracer
i can turn right
i've been racing offroad most of the summer
but
i'm still learning it
Hey bob
running touring car
what tires do ya run ?
alos don't have a 13.5 motor so would stock be ok to run ?
might have to try to make it out
Crptracer 08-17-2007, 10:31 PM Crist your just the jack of all trades when it comes to R/C........The more the better it will be a ton of fun for sure......hopefully the weather stays nice....
rockin_bob13 08-18-2007, 11:02 AM I'd suggest foams. Puple all around. p/o fr,p rear, Nitro shoes, 35 or 40 durom. all around.
Touring stock will be a class, 13.5 would be it's own class, mini's, micro's, coopers, 4 makes a class.
Crptracer 08-18-2007, 03:17 PM Sounds good to me....cant wait
jason crist 08-21-2007, 06:10 PM i don't have any touring tires so can i run rubber ?
or will they suck ?

yokman 08-21-2007, 06:48 PM no one or thing sucks as much or bad as you.......
LOSER
jason crist 08-21-2007, 09:38 PM i know i do

rockin_bob13 08-22-2007, 01:39 PM rubber or foam. i think you'll burn up rubber faster than foam.
yokman 08-22-2007, 04:04 PM call me tonight bob.i called ya but sumthing is wrong with your phone and you couldnt hear me.
crist taught me how NOT TO DRIVE and how NOT to drive as bad as him.i think if he keeps with it he will be as good as that barns guy one day.

rockin_bob13 08-30-2007, 03:54 PM I did a moc-up of the track today. @ 100'X48". I'd guess @ 13-15sec laps. The guys at the shop got excited. They said " It's so BIG!
Get ready for next weekend. BC

rockin_bob13 09-02-2007, 10:35 AM I found a touring car in the living room. I think I'm gonna put in a 10.5 b/l for Saturday.Get some practice time with 'em. Anybody else wanna run 'em like that?
dragrace 09-03-2007, 08:29 PM BoB,
Will anybody be running 1/12 on Saturday....
Steve Dunn
rockin_bob13 09-04-2007, 01:38 PM None have said on that class to me yet.
BadSign 09-04-2007, 08:58 PM Are the 10.5's going to be considered mod ?
rockin_bob13 09-05-2007, 01:29 PM Really, ther are 2 classes of electric touring. 27 turn stock,,,,,,,,,,,,mod. 10.5 is fast enough for me. Probably too fast for me, but it's what I had available in the box.
Mach10_shooter 09-05-2007, 04:06 PM I'll come and run 1/12 stock or 19t if anyone else wants to.
Chris Simpson
Mach10_shooter 09-05-2007, 04:09 PM What time do you plan on starting?
IndyRC_Racer 09-05-2007, 04:30 PM Bob, what are you using for a driver's stand? Will the drivers stand be on east/west side of the track or north/south. Late in the afternoon when it was on the east side of the track the sun was in everyone's eyes.
Thanks.
IndyRC_Racer 09-05-2007, 05:26 PM I spoke with Bob and he said track open for practice by 10am and racing by noon.

IndyRC_Racer 09-06-2007, 03:20 PM Looks like the weather might cool off a bit for Saturday which will be nice.
Crptracer 09-06-2007, 03:52 PM Unfortunately.....Chance for Rain.....only 20% right now though scattered....Yok I thought you were gonna start runnin some onroad......
IndyRC_Racer 09-06-2007, 04:59 PM Real road course runs in any weather! :)
