The class is growing again. We had a new guy in tonight gearing up to be ready to race. He got in some practice time and he'll be with us on the track Sunday.

Glad you got your battery issues resolved Sandy. Good to see you on the driver's stand. It was TOUGH out there to say the least yesterday. I give you guys a lot of credit! We needed to throw a few more black flags in that race I think...

Mike, I'd like to get up there, but I have to be out of there no later than 4:30, I have a family thing Sunday night...

It would be close. Starting at 1pm, each round starts on the hour from there. That has the mains starting at 4pm. I can set it up so the specs run first. You'll be done by 4:10, That's if you have corner marshal the next race. Which I'm sure we could get you a fill in for that. Hope you can make it.

Ok Spec Racers at Turn Four,lets get up there tommorow and get some good close racing in.I was at Turn 4 today testing and had a couple of potential great racers practiceing,pretty impressive young wheel men driving their Sks,Mike& Kim, I think if this new group continues to grow it would be great if they could compete against each other in maybe a JR.group???? at their discretion.The way its been growing,with out a doubt SK spec. will be the biggest class compared to any class anywhere!!!!!!!!.

Hello everyone,
I was at Turn 4 yesterday with my 10 year old son. Thanks for the complement. We rented a car to try and it did bring back some memories... Anyone remember the GEARS club at Fox Run Mall in Glastonbury? Those days were a BLAST! The auto shows, the parking lot racing in the summer and carpet racing in the winter! When I started we had resistors with a wiper and BUSHINGS....

At this point we are seriously thinking about returning to the sport, in the Spec class. I would appriciate any advice on what car, electronics, equipment you can offer. What worked, what didn't. I like the spec class because the rules are intended to keep the costs low.

If anyone has any used equipment for sale let me know!!!!
Regards,
Hugo

hi hugo, i was the one there yesterday with my son practicing for s/k spec. the kskt solid chassis in my opinion is the one you want. i believe mike has one in stock but if he does'nt you can ask him about ordering one.the kskt line of products has the best customer service out there and lots of wins at big events also. you can check out their site at www.kskts.com ken is the guy that runs kskts but right now he is at the snowbird nationals in florida and will be back in around 10 days or so.any questions just shoot one on here and i'll try and get you an answer asap. clayton jennings

Thanks for the comments. I will try to make it up to another race at Turn 4 sometime soon, probably on the 10th of Feb? Not sure if there is enough interest from my son. I will lay low for a little while and see if he brings it up.

Enjoy sunny florida! I have some Daytona tickets for sale if anyone is interested??? My buddy in West Palm has not gotten back to me yet if he is going to take them or not. Great seats - top row of Depalma Tower for the Nationwide Race and row 43 in Depalma on an isle for the 500... 2 for each race. Sticker price for all of them $610.00 If you have never seen a race at Daytona you don't know what your missing....

2nd Point Series Race this weekend!! Sponsored by McAllister, Trinity and several others. This is a 5 race series with 1 drop. We have several sponsors for the entire series including PRS, Novak, KSKT, Beefy, RSE, etc... PRS sponsored our first race so if you missed that one, you missed out on free pinions and spurs!! Don't miss the rest of the series...it's not too late to join in the fun!! Complete information can be found on our website.

Special thanks to TRANNYCARMAN for his help with the Meatball Grinders!!! Couldn't have done it without you Sandy!
