Here it is peoples the 2008 Summit RC Outdoor Off-Road thread. Rumor is some new dirt might be in adding traction and longer tire life. I know there are some big races coming to Summit this summer so you can comment on those as well. (Dale knows I am pulling for one speficaly;))

I hope the yearly Memoral Race will be this year. Already scheduleing my weekend around it.

Is the rebuild still sheduled for this weekend? The first race the next? Just asking since The Track has that rc pro race next weeknd. If 20 peeps show to that I'd rather go down the street and race at summit for sure.

I'm looking forward to some great battles at Summit this summer.

Whats it matter if 20 people show up or 120 people show up, it is still a race!

calm down Bret don't pop another gasket !!!!!

Yea a race at summit.

My point is 2 hour drive, $50 for 2 entries, $65 for hotel because you have to be there both days. I dont mind shelling out the $$ when the competition shows up. Paying extra coin to race a handful of people, done that too many times this year already.

OK OK, understandable.

LoL the only gasket Im going to pop is going to be yours on the track this summer.

we will see

About adding dirt the the track at Summit. I would say that all you need to do is rotate the soil with a 48 or 60 inch tiller behind a tractor. About 6 inches or so. May bring up a few rocks but nothing a little racking can't fix.

Opening day for the 2008 season is next Saturday, April 26. Hope to see everyone there.

If anyone needs any R/C stuff LMK.

Any big race plans as of yet?

By the way let's remember it is opening day and there are sometimes first race bugs to work out. I am sure Dale and Seth can handle about anything.

I'll be there with my stuff if anyone needs anything. Then you can blow me crap in person :)

Looking forward to tomorrow. Should be a little cooler but still spring in Indiana what can you expect. Hopefully no heavy downpours overnight.

when does racing start and baron what time do you think you will be there

1:15 - 1:30pm

What time do doors open?

Dale said open at 9:00 AM.

Good first day, cold and very, very, very windy. But still fun racing. Good group about 24 (I think). No serious problems with track or scoring. Obviously this being the first run on a new track some tuning needs to be done but it worked out well. Lots of buggies and trucks flying through the air especially coming off jumps when the wind gusts hit.

Looking forward to the next run.

Wow, what a day. That wind ws killing everybody's cars. f like I was driving a kite in the air. Track layout was good, but super rough and had a few narrow lanes for the huge size of the track. Gonna put the buggy away and give truck a try.:cool:

few narrow lanes for the huge size of the track. yup but at least thats a eay fix. but that wind tho there was no fixing for that.

Dave,
I'm with you, I think I'm going to sale the 4whl and get a truck too.Mod truck looked fun and trucks take the rough stuff like it's not even there. I think truck will be a big class this year.

Got mine ordered. Hehe
