I stopped in and ran for about 8 hours on Sunday and I was very impressed. This is a top-notch facility and I'm really looking forward to coming back. Some of those turns could use some flappers or something, though. The wood is rather unforgiving.

Hey Nick, :wave:

It was nice meeting you. We're working on the plug in's and flappers for all the corners. We're going to get the material for flappers at Laird plastics tomorrow Oct 8th and we should have some stuff together this weekend. We're kicking off our 18th Scale racing on Friday night. This is our 3rd year of 18th scale series racing. Saturday is Open practice from 9am to 9pm and I hope some more guys come out on Sunday from 9am to 5pm again.

Let all your friends know about the track.

Thanks,

Thats great Pat :thumbsup: I had a good time Sunday and didn't brake anything. Plastic on the corners will make a big difference, I look forward to seeing how you do it. I like the low infield board also, it makes it easer for us old guys to see our cars :cool: Keep up the good work, you are doing a great job, I'll see you again this Sunday.

10-14-2008, 07:20 PM
Might not make it this weekend. I am trying to get out of work but even if I do I still have to talk my wife into letting me go. It sounds like we might have some more people coming. With dan at riders we will get some more people forsure.

Semi is a family name that means beat russ johnson every week. So far this season it is dead on.

What do you really think about the razor back. It looks fun and simple.

I'll give her a call and fix you up for Sunday :thumbsup:

WHAT :freak: You crashed and I lapped you, I got 21 laps and you only got 19 and then you broke a C hub and DNF...... What you think I wasn't looking ?????

I just spent a bunch on lipo's and parts for my clone but I like it. Don't tell Leslie but I will be getting one maybe the end of next month. By then they should have all the stuff in stock.

Russ,

We pick up the plastic tomorrow and will be out there working on the sweeper and entering the straight turns first. Then we will be working on all the other radius turns and straight ends. We may not have all of them done this weekend but most of them. We will also be working on them on Sunday.

So guys please be patient with us. We are getting them done as quick as we can. If anyone would like to volunteer and help just let me know. Call the store @ 419-471-1108, or we will be at the track Thursday night Oct 16th from 5pm to ?

Making nice corners can take time so I'm sure everybody understands that.
Most tracks don't put much time, thought or work in on there corners. We all know it can be the difference between just a track and a great track so take your time with them.


See you Sunday

Just curious on what exactly is on the schedule for this weekend (10/25 & 10/26)?

I have a mini-slider that I was looking to get some practice laps in with before running with the 'big boys' during a real race night.

Thanks.

On Sat 10/25 we will have Open Practice from 9am to 9pm.

We will start the morning with a road course and at some point in the day we will transisition to an Oval. (we're working on the inside corners for our oval course) We should have them done on Saturday.

On Sun 10/26 if enough show up for a race we will put on our first fun race for 1/10 and 1/12 On-road.

Is there 1/18th mini-slider/ mini late model oval racing this Saturday?

I showed up last weekend to find the gates closed....

rcwebs
10-29-2008, 02:11 PM
Yes, there will be an Oval race on Saturday Nov. 1st. Doors open at 9am.

If you came out last Saturday you must have been early. We were there from 9am to 9pm for open practice. If the front gate is down just give a shout and we will come open it for you. Most racers know to come in the back door from the parking lot.

1/18 Oval racing will be held every other Saturday starting with this weekend.

Thanks,

Pat
