Are yall going to be running 1/12 scale also and if so what class.

I have a 12th scale oval car and I am looking for some guys to join in that class, no rules yet though. If you are talking about on road, I am open to the possibility but there would have to be a good size group interested before I was to buy all of the pipe, ect needed for onroad. I would love to see the 12th on road run, I like to watch those little cars run!Are yall going to be running 1/12 scale also and if so what class.

I was thinking more about 1/12 oval I've never ran one before but i likethe way the little cars look.If there is enough people interested I'll get one and run two classes when yall start racing.

yea, they are really cool on the rug.

Cliff, any progress to report? I too have got an itchy finger and need a racing fix.

Interesting

my 21.5 Lipo car is running .1 to .2 seconds slower a lap then some of the best 10.5 4 cell cars in the Country at Stricklands RC in Daytona Florida (Run line 160 feet) and About .3 seconds slower a lap then the same guys at Hobby World in Jacksonville Florida (Run line 380 feet) Im also faster then the 13.5 class with my 21.5 lipo car by about .2 seconds a lap on both tracks.

yea, it is interesting. I guess we will see what happens

I will be working on the building (cleaning up) this weekend then next week sometime the concrete guy is coming in to fix the floor. Hopefully the carpet will arrive soon after that. I am trying to race by Mid March.Cliff, any progress to report? I too have got an itchy finger and need a racing fix.

sounds good, thanks for the update.

My trigger finger is itching as well. I plan on starting out in breakout when we first get started and then grow from there. I would love to see a lay out that would include a road course. Then may we can run some touring classes 4 and 2wd. Just have to see who wants to run what.

Lets race!!!!!!!!:woohoo::woohoo:

The break out class will be the biggest class for sure!

The break out class will be the biggest class for sure!

I plan to run the break out class to start but want to switch to the 21.5 after I get my "stuff" together. I think the 21.5 will be a good class.

I think it will be the biggest class

After further investigating into my checkbook my final determination is that I will start in break out then move to the 21.5 class. Gotta save money for the lipo stuff. I will need a battery and a charger. As far as the esc and motor I am currently running a 4300ss brushless and am wondering if the ss speed controller will handle the 21.5 ok or will I need to upgrade there too. What do you think Cliff??? R/C guru???:D

Cliff are you going to update the track page on AOL or just let it fall by the wayside???? Just wondering???

your controller will work fine but you will need to run a lipo cut off. I will update the AOL site when the track is up and running

how would I go about running a li-po cutoff and how much for a li-po battery, charger and 21.5 motor???

Chris, you have mail

got it thanks!!!! that helps in the planning.....

Ah yes grasshopper but you must first go to the track to finish first:freak:got it thanks!!!! that helps in the planning.....

so is this going to be good olg fashion saturday night racing

I sure hope so!

Well except when we race on Sundays

Hey Cliff, I Think That I Have This Figured Out Now(ha)!! How Are Things Looking?? I Am Looking Forward To Coming Down As Soon As You Get Things Situated! I Might Be New To What You Are Doing But I Still Feel That I Can Beat You(ha)!!
Later,
James

James man what in the world have you been up to??? It's great to hear that you will be joining us soon. It's all going to be a learning curve for us....some of us at least. :D

James has joined the computer age! I am trying to get this thing going just as quick as possible. I will be posting progress pictures soon. We are cutting the floor out wednesday night and the concrete will take a few days to cure before we can do anything else.

You Are Absolutely Right Chris!! You Know That It Has Been A While For Me And Everyone Has Changed Everything!! I'm Glad To Hear That You Are Still Running Also. You Might Be Behind But I Bet You Still Are More Up On The Game Than Me!! Cliff Is Right Also! I Finally Came To My Senses And Learned How To Use These Here Message Boards(ha)!! Oh Well, I Might Be Behind In The "computer" Thing But Y'all Better Watch Out On The Track. You Know Me, I Like To Be In Front(ha)!!
God Bless,
James

Hello Out There!! Is Anyone Still Able To Type??? Maybe I'm Bad Luck Cliff For As Soon As I Start Typing Away On This Thing Everyone Stops Replying. Oh Well, I Guess I Intimidated You By Saying That I Was Going To Beat You(ha)!! Really Though, It Would Be Nice To Hear From Y'all(you, Chris Etc.) So Keep Me Updated.
James

James I don't know about you but I know nothing about carpet racing, it's gonna take me a while to just keep the car on all 4's

James I don't know about you but I know nothing about carpet racing, it's gonna take me a while to just keep the car on all 4's

You'll figure it out quick enough.

All I can remember is go fast turn left and hitting things cost to much money. I’m ready

Well the wall on this track should be as forgiving as the one on the big track, maybe even more. I am building it the same as they did @ the Snowbirds, out of vinyl fence material. I hammered theirs a few time during the weekend with no damage to my car. I think overall speeds will be lower so even when 2 cars collide the damage will be much less than on the big track.

I can't wait to do some racing! I have several shipments of stuff coming in this week. It looks like I will be set up for the 21.5 class after all.

lol, I knew you couldn't stand itI can't wait to do some racing! I have several shipments of stuff coming in this week. It looks like I will be set up for the 21.5 class after all.

Cliff S. Still need the Lipo tray??

Cliff S. Still need the Lipo tray??

I'm not sure. The guy said he shipped the car but I haven't recieved it yet. I should know something for sure this week.

Hello, question to Cliff Kline. Where is the track going to be located? and do you still operate the paved oval. I am new to RC racing, preparing to purchase a car in the next few weeks. Thanks.

The paved oval is gone, we are in the process of building a new carpet track @ 1505 N. Avondale cir. Macon GA 31216 We will be across the street from the Macon Airport

There are 3 Concords in GA are you in Pike, Schley or Sumpter county?

Cliff, I'm in Pike Co. Browsing the web for tracks in Ga came across your web site, saw the oval thought I would ask. As I said in the previous post I will be new to this not sure what type of car to buy. Looking to see what kind of racing is local to me then purchase with some guideance from the local experts.

JBINCHRIST from the above posts is from Pike county as well, Molena I think. I hope to have the track up and running in about 3 weeks.

3 weeks.....sounds cool,looking forward to my 2nd race in 9 years......i have also been trying to get a few things i needed to race...

Cliff, I'm thinking your track will be oval racing, what type cars? I'm looking for a hobby that involves racing. Spent the last five years in bandolero racing (son was the driver) Bando for sale now, my son and I would be intrested in RC racing.

Hello Again To Everyone In Computer Land!! I'm Glad To Hear That I'm Not The Only One Still Typing Away On This Thing!! I Saw Your Address Cliff As To Where The Track Will Be But I Need You To Tell Me Where That Is In Relation To The Old Track?? Myself And Clint Will Probably Come Down Together!! I Ran Into Him A Second Time Yesterday At Walmart And He Said That He Was Ready To Come Race Also. He Just Needed To Know When That Would Be. I'll Let Him Know As Soon As You Inform Me(and Everyone Else Of Course)!! I Would Like To Say Hello To Firecracker Also. If You Are Reading This Then Cliff Told You Right About Me Being In Pike County. I Am About Halfway Between Hwy19 And Molena Off Of 109 W. Looking Forward To Meeting You At Cliff's First Event If Not Before Then!!

James

No problem Cliff, Its yours if and when you need it. I'm not sure. The guy said he shipped the car but I haven't recieved it yet. I should know something for sure this week.

It's definitely racing, more saturday night style than NASCAR though. We run straight axle pan cars with NASCAR type bodies. I could write a book on just your question alone, lol. Send me an e mail to GTOCK1000@aol.com and I will send you a bunch of links of things to look at to get a grip on what we do.Cliff, I'm thinking your track will be oval racing, what type cars?
