Hey, anyone looking for a cheap way to race this winter the losi sliders are the way to go. The rules are easy, everything must remain stock. Tires, batt, everything! For around 200.00 you can go racing! If you need more info call 574-293-1827. russellrc.com

Yea. Those slider sprints are really cool! Losi did an awesome job with those. I'm pretty impressed. That class will probably grow real fast this winter. Go to russellrc.com they have plenty in stock!

Hey guys I have never been much of a slot car fan but you really need to check out the digital slot car track. Travis and I raced on it Tuesday and it is nothing like the old slot cars. You can pass! You need to make fuel stops and you can run up to 6 cars on 2 lanes!

Open house is this Saturday. We will have plenty of deals on all parts and car/truck kits. We might have a few Mini Sliders left by then, they are selling fast get them while you can.

Racing for the night of Friday oct.5th was a good turn out. For as hot as it was we were pleased with all who came out to race. I think the next couple of weeks the crowds should really start to pick up. It looks like we are going to have 6 classes that should have good car counts. Mini Trucks, 4300 Sprint Cars, Modified Sprint Cars, Losi Slider Sprints, Nascar 4-cell 13.5, & Nascar 4-cell 8.5. Thanks again to all who came and we will see you next week! Don't forget next week we race for our monthly Sunday event. :thumbsup:

Thanks again for a great weekend and see most of you again on Friday night!! To Todd & Aaron I'll see you on Sunday!! :thumbsup:
