Well, I've found every hotel to be at least 7 miles out and starting at $99. EXCEPT this one.............. The White Lake Motel which is 4.9 miles away and is $45 for a room with 2 queen beds. I bet this place is purrrrty!

Have not hit it yet,but I,m sure some of the locals will be every lap.
From the looks of it it should be no prob.

You'll be able to hit the triple no problem. 2wh mod, you might quad the whole dang thing. It's easy to quad it with an 1/8 buggy, gas trucks couldn't quite hit the whole thing. But they hit it as a triple easy enough.

Justin jumped the quad a few times succesfully last Sunday with his 1/10 2wd gas truck, so I would think you should be able to do it with an electric mod!

WOW 200+ entries that is great. This must be one of the largest offroad races of the year including Nationals and CRCRC etc. this is a statment that offroad Electirc is not dead here in the Midwest it is alive and well. with promotors like Al Horne and his Gang. things just get better and better, just when tracks are closing at a record rate.

Way to go guys, Hats off to all that raced and the crew that put it all together. Wish I could have been there.:woohoo:

results soon please...

The official results have been posted at http://www.factorytracksraceway.com. The pictures will be posted there as well, but I don't know when. It normally takes Jason a little while to get it done.
