We offer Indoor pitting with tables, chairs, and ac power.

Entry forms will be available in the shop in advance and on the day of the event.

Check out www.rcexcitement.com for updates and more information.

Prices are $30 for the first class, $15 for each additional class.

One question that has been asked a couple of times is about the Stock Classes. Stock class is required to run a 27 turn single wind motor with fixed timing and bushings. There will be no handouts, so bring your own motor or we will have Team Kwik and Team Scream motors available in the shop.

To answer the tire questions.

Pink Tapers, Panther Switches, Holeshots, and Inside Jobs all have been working. You don't have to do any thing special. You can keep the tires dusty, clean them with simple green, or buggy grip them, it all works. You'll just have to see what works for your car and set up.

I'm running my MF2 with Pink Tapers all around. I'm not the fastest guy at the track, but my truck is hooked up well and is smooth and consistent through the turns.

Racers are already in practicing for this weekends racing. The track is in great shape and there is plenty of pit space with power and chairs. With the number of calls and e-mails we've received this event is looking to be very well attended. Should make for some great racing.
