Sounds like fun to me count me in!

Sign me up for TC Stock and TC Rubber.

Next Sunday is the day. Steve has gained access to the secret track layout for the US Indoor Champs and will be replicating it to the best of his ability.

The track will be setup Wednesday. It will be open for practice both Thursday and Friday.

As one of the announcers for The US Indoor Champs, I am proud to be announcing the Classic Hobbies Warm-Up Race. Classic is my local hobby store and track and I announce there every weekend.

This will be an opportunity to practice FOR the Indoor Champs in an environment that will FEEL like the Indoor Champs.

If you've never been to our track, Classic has ample parking and pit space with four electrical outlets (on the bench) every three feet. They have a full kitchen where you can get anything from Hot Dogs, Burgers, and Cheesesticks to Pop, Candy and Ice Cream.

I'll be playing music all day and announcing the event - I may even put a car on the track.

Other members of The Champs crew will be there including Mr. Bill and Billy Aholt.

Hope to see you there!!!!!!!

I am going to stop out Wednesday after work to lay down a quick 1000 laps or so.

Steve put in all new lights so the track is brighter than ever :cool:.

Mike you have a PM

What kind of turnout are you guys expecting?

The track Classic Hobbies has put together is very impressive. I personally cannot wait to run on it. You racers won't want to miss this opportunity.

What kind of turnout are you guys expecting?

Hard to tell on the turnout. I am guessing between 20 and 40.

I know there will be TC Foam, TC Rubber, World GT, and 1/12th scale heats.

Here Are A Few Pics Of The Track..First Off It's Far From Done at the time of These Pics.Steve Has Spared No Expense On This Roadcouse Or Time.
THE BARRIER OR RAILS HAVE NO EDGES TO CATCH YOUR CAR ON AND GIVES AS TO BE VERY CAR FRIENDLY.THE INFIELDS ARE ALL NEW ARTIFICIAL GREEN TURF[the turf isn't all down in these pics].

I ran my World GT car tonight for a few hours on the new track. Holy Cow! Nice flowing lines and the barriers are extremely forgiving. Say so long to broken parts. This Sunday is gonna be a blast. Hopefully we will get alot of people.

They will also be racing Vintage Trans Am and mini classes as well. Everyone is welcome - even the oval guys.

The track is really nice. Lot's of fun to drive.

Rodney beat me to the punch with pictures so I'll add just a couple more... one of the track and one of my sweet lizard (Marvin) naked in the bath tub. Marvin's favorite foods include collard greens, snow peas, mango, papaya, and yellow squash. He enjoys listening to Black Sabbath and climbing things. Marvin never cleans his room. Marvin would make quite a few large sandwiches which would taste alot like chicken:eek:... but we're not going there. Marvin is VERY popular with the ladies.

Track looks great!! Good job!!

How about a roll call?

Myself and Bailes for 1/12th :wave:

Very nice looking.

The track boards are made of a recycled plastic called plasteak I believe. Steve is now a distributor for this stuff. He is working on a joint system to allow the track to snap together. Currently the track is screwed together.

For more info... call Steve: 330 733 6400

Fred,

The track is made of a Space Aged Polymer that nothing will stick to. :)

Actually, it's a new design and concept that Steve is in the proses of developing to market. I'm not at liberty to divulge the specifics but the stuff is very strong, creates a smooth, flowing track that has NO connectors to damage cars, and the material has a "memory" to return to it's original flat state.

You can see it, in person, this weekend at our Champs Warm-Up or portions may be integrated into Clevelands track for The Champs.

I practiced last night with a car I could not control and the track gives enough so that the car came off the track undamaged!

Steve, Andy, and I were brainstorming the product name last night - stay tuned.

Dana can't see well enough for 13.5 so it's 17.5 :thumbsup:

Hi guys,

I'm new to racing and looking to do the Slash class tomorrow. I don't know if it's out of line to ask, or if your supposed to find this out your self, but is there a preferred spur/pinion combo for the track on 6 cell nimh?

Thanks guys! Hope to see you tomorrow! How long does racing usually last?
