Wow that's a lot of classes. No 12th scale? That was the only class I considered running.

Did I miss the 12th scale........oops!

Like I said mistakes have probably been made.

Classes are open based on demand.

Was also thinking of brp...for the stock class. Any thoughts!!!

How many people run 12th scale on an oval, and you can combine the 18 b,t,r and slider

BRP can run in their own class, Stock should be 1/10 pan.

:woohoo:

Since the indoor season is only a few weeks away, are the rules for the specific classes set? In particular, I am asking about the rules for the Losi Late Model. It seems some tracks are allowing the use of other Spektrum radio systems. Is this gonna be ok? What about things like shock oil weights, shock shaft limiters, different springs, etc. And what batteries are you allowed to use. I know they come with the 1100mah Losi battery, but 1400 and 1600 unmatched batteries are available at a lower price.

I just want to get my car correct before the racing starts. Hope this doesn't create problems, just want to get the rules clarified.

Thanks,
Dale

I never do these things right

Track is 40x80, pits for 30 going to 40, vending, stands, drivers stand in picture has been replaced and there is a Hobbystore. We have had some good compliments but the only way we are going to get better is hearing it from you!

The track, facility, and people are all very nice. I am hoping to make it Sunday for some 21.5. Will the track be swept good before Sunday? The dust from the off road track made the carpet pretty slick when we were there practicing a month ago. Thanks. Bob

I am not going to make it to the swap but I might send some stuff along with JW. From the sounds of it he may need a Uhaul truck to bring all the stuff he has for sale. The swap is a cool idea. I wish I could make it. Hope to see everybody Sunday though for some racing.
