Missed your question. Let me know anytime you want to go. I have been trying to help him get the racing going there. He's got a great place and has the energy to keep it going.
Wednesday is parctice usually. Saturday has been racing but that will shift to Sunday so as not to compete against Plattsburgh and St. J. We're gonna take a ride Saturday to p-burgh to promote the new track.
324-1521 call anytime.:thumbsup::thumbsup:

The move has been put on the back burner for now.
Looks like Russ wants to work with what he's got for now.

4 cell 17.5 brushless can run with 27t 4 cell 4600 max nascar bodies. There are some touring cars also. Just getting things up and running. More classes will be added as soon as there is enough to run a class.
Say Hi to your Dad and cousins for me!
Chuck
Fireball929 01-03-2009, 03:54 PM what is the length of the track? Thinking of getting over there in a few weeks.
wrenchhead 01-05-2009, 08:49 PM hey chuck are u going to be racing friday nite it starts ur points write and what do u do for scoring i dont want to cut hole in a brand new body im going to try to make it down on friday to race how much is it to race going to try to get rick gillian to go
team peak performance #71 running on all cylinders
c barsalow 01-07-2009, 05:02 PM Kenny: about 75 ft racing line
Donald: I am going to race Friday and yes it does start the season points. He uses a Robitronics scoring system. 3 small holes. I cut holes in 6 of my new bodies. Can't see it from 2 feet and has zero effect on the car. Racing is $10 for members ($75 annual membership gets you unlimited free practice 7 days a week and discounts and keeps the place open!!!) ?$12? for non-members. He may run a special for first timers at the track...not sure.

c barsalow 01-13-2009, 06:41 PM Working on sleds? Where?
It went really well. Wade kicked my ass with a new track record in the process. 25 racers were a welcome sight considering Wade was te only one there that races anywher else.. So that really means 24 new faces in the racing game!
You missed a good time. A few guys were singing (literally) by the end of the night!
Hope to see ya Friday!

wkbracing 01-14-2009, 12:09 AM chuck,
I may be back to race again this week, talked with clayton and leroy and they both want to go, hope you have the pit space, we will travel light.
wade
c barsalow 01-14-2009, 01:29 PM More pit space is under construction as we speak. I think the compressor and tools will be moved to make more space as well.
See ya Friday:thumbsup:
wkbracing 01-15-2009, 06:54 PM the smith brothers "aka" known as cough and drop, just bailed, but i got the word big papa will make the trip. see you guys tommorrow around 630
Racer 06082 01-15-2009, 11:19 PM how far is yur place from Brattleburo?
c barsalow 01-16-2009, 03:42 PM Good question. Brattleboro is about 3 hours. 91 to 89 Exit 17 take a right on 7 heading south first shopping center on your right behind dollar general.
Can't wait to see ya all.
Cough and Drop. That's funny!
c barsalow 01-16-2009, 03:43 PM I think we're gonna see some Maine iacs tonight! Hope I can make the A! Wade call with Wayne's frequency and I'll get you guys registered.
c barsalow 01-16-2009, 03:45 PM Tonight we'll test the 13.5 1c vs. the 17.5 nimh vs. 27t nimh. Hopefully we put the fork in the debate!
JBCJP 01-18-2009, 11:12 PM Had a blast do not change a thing! 17.5 1 cell 2 laps off the brushed motor 13.5 1 cell was a little faster (Wade ALOT FASTER )
Thanks, Brian
c barsalow 01-19-2009, 02:48 PM Thanks for coming guys. 3 states represented in the A. Not bad for the second week of racing. Hopefully the transponders find their way to the track by Friday.
1c 17.5 2 laps slower than brushed
1c 13.5 1 lap faster than brushed
nimh 17.5 4 laps faster than brushed.
I think for here we might get it closer with a little tweaking?
I see where the 1c 13.5 could be Pro Stock and the 1c 17.5 could be Stock.
Wade will just be fast!
:wave:
fluff-a nader 01-21-2009, 10:13 PM hi if coming from the massena area the directions would be ? thks

wkbracing 01-22-2009, 01:55 PM chuck,

thanks
wade
c barsalow 01-23-2009, 04:24 PM I don't have his cell. I'll leave a message with his wife. Can't wait to get my a$$ handed to me tonight!
JBCJP 01-24-2009, 10:50 AM So how did things go this week?
c barsalow 01-27-2009, 05:10 PM Fair turnout considering we get snowed on every Friday. I did a personal best 96 laps nimh 27t. Wade may have upped his best in the process. 1c 13.5 has gotten faster for Wayne and Wade. I was able to hold them off at first but the last minute I had nothing for them... motor maybe?
Wade was busy getting Ducky and a few others dialed in. Looks like it will take 90 laps to make the C in no time at all. Everyone is stepping it up.
Only had one guy that was unsure of what his motor was trick. Ooops it's a 19t.. Won't get far running legal wasting his time fooling himself that he's legal.
You'll have an envelope coming your way Brian.:thumbsup:
LeRoy Smith 01-29-2009, 09:14 PM hey guys bunch of us are going to barre sunday 2/1/09 should go
c barsalow 01-30-2009, 01:26 PM Too much snow on the ground. BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAPPPPP!
c barsalow 02-02-2009, 04:01 PM Another great night of racing. I think it's gonna take 90 laps to make the B soon. Everyone is picking up the pace quickly.
JBCJP 02-02-2009, 04:11 PM Have you picked up some more racer? Id like to race more but the ride home is a bitch hehehe
Brian
c barsalow 02-03-2009, 03:26 PM Have you picked up some more racer? Id like to race more but the ride home is a bitch hehehe
Brian
It's only 8 hours round trip!
c barsalow 02-10-2009, 07:00 PM Worked on a couple of the lower main cars this week. Hopefully that will give them a few more laps. Amazing what a few loose screws can do.
c barsalow 02-20-2009, 04:53 PM Lots of testing went on this week apparently. I heard reports of 2 and 3 lap gains! There is a big group going to the trophy race at the Toybox Saturday and a bunch are going to Barre on Sunday so tonight might be a light crowd. Have we had a Friday yet without a snowstorm? WOW!
c barsalow 02-23-2009, 04:20 PM Chris Facini pulled down the A-main this week. Nice work!
wrenchhead 03-09-2009, 06:21 PM hey chuck dont forget to tell everyone about the jeff sears race this weekend doors open at 7:00am and racing starts at 1:00it should be a great race
c barsalow 03-10-2009, 02:34 PM Yo'ure right. That's always a good one to attend.
