Here is the link to the oval section. This is where most of the discussion is taking place. They are starting a Wed. night road course only night of racing. They run both oval and road course on Sat. nights.

Sorry to hear that. I use the matched cells that BRP sells on their website so I guess this track is off my list of places to possibly race. Too bad.

A 10 dollar battery pack will keep you from racing? I am sure people would be okay with your matched pack as long as you werent totally wasting them on the track.
