Dirtydrc 04-07-2008, 10:02 AM I haven't talked to John yet, but I will today. I (DRC Engineering) would like to sponsor this Saturday's Season Finale race for the Legends. (Trophy, $$$, and stuff). If you guys want to go 500 laps instead of 300, I will make the deal more interesting.:eek:
Post your thoughts here about 500 vs. 300 laps.

darrel 04-07-2008, 05:06 PM Im in for the 500. It will be pretty interesting to see how my finger will feel after that race. I guess the dent in it will stop gettin bigger after it hits bone.

A-Main 500 laps, B-Main ??? laps

Maybe it will heat up from all the pressure on it and finally mold to your finger.Or you'll get it all the way through grip.:lol:
darrel 04-07-2008, 09:22 PM Remember battries must be held in with a tie wrap!!!!! no velcro... The configuration must be the same as you ran all year!!!!
We will have to discuss the gearing. I would say we go from the 20/22 to 21/23.

Dirtydrc 04-13-2008, 08:26 AM Well, the 1st annual King's Ransom 500 is in the books. Results and many pics to follow later tonight. What a real barn-burner, with the second place stalking first place by 4 or 5 laps the entire way, then taking the lead at the last pist stop with 30 to go with a quicker pit stop!
Congrats to Redlog Racing:thumbsup:
Top three:
#27 Darrel Golder
#54 Bob Durkin
#24 Rich Devine
Hmmm.... all coupes;)
(my legs are real tired after marshalling 500 laps...)

LWOOD 04-13-2008, 04:38 PM are you guys gonna run indoor yearround now? have you changed any of your orginal rules? still tamiya motors and trinity spec pack?
DrtRcrM87 04-13-2008, 05:53 PM Give John a call @ (914)-621-0044 I'm sure he would be open minded to any suggestions as far as motors batts and classes.You bring the drivers and cars,and he has a place to race. ;)
darrel 04-13-2008, 08:07 PM are you guys gonna run indoor yearround now? have you changed any of your orginal rules? still tamiya motors and trinity spec pack?
Im sure guys will be there weekly and yes the rules are still the same. If you have any ideas for changes let us know, almost everybody that runs them reads these posts.
If you dont mind, what would or do you prefer to run with the legends. The lap times are pretty quick for our cars right now 3.7/3.9 and that was our first night on this particular track.
We also ran SKs last night for the first time and we were getting them down to 3.1/3.4s Both classes will reduce those times by a 10th or 2 as we get used to the track. The reason I ask is that in my opnion the legends should stay as they are, (cheap/affordable and very competitive). The SK would be the way to go if you want to run 27 turn or brushless with a challenge to get it around.
darrel 04-14-2008, 05:47 PM Where are those new pics Mr. Cote, I waiting to see what kinda moron I look like wearin the crown and sash and of course holdin the big money check. Yes sir it feels good joining the ranks of Kinser and Lossoski wearin the crown. Thanks again for sponsoring the 500. I had a great time.
