BSR Tires: RF-Double Purple, LF-Purple, RR-Double Pink, LR-Pink

Track is slightly banked and has 3 very different turns. It's fast, but easy to drive, and if your set up is decent the tire ware is minimal.

Mushroom bowl runs every Saturday night. Racing starts at 4:00pm for now and moves to 5:00 or 6:00pm in June when it gets a little warmer. They run on road and oval, but right now only a few onroad guys are showing up.

I want to try to kick off the oval racing on Saturday, May 23rd. That's the holiday weekend and I believe Jackson is not running oval that weekend, so hopefully well get a good turnout. Phil and I will be there, so let's see how many more we can get.

We want to keep the classes consistent with what other area tracks are running. I think Jackson and Trax 70 are running 2 cell lipo (3200) 21.5, so we'll start with that as the main class.

Joe- the bowl is one of the best asphalt tracks around and its banked, can't go wrong with that.

Joe - You won't be dissapointed. It's a fun track to race on.

Maybe we can get Brock and Walter to come on down too.

Yes, very fun track.

Greg, being that the bowl will start running on the 23rd, are you going to make it to Jackson this weekend?

Chuck - I can't make it this weekend. My daughter has a basketball tournament in Avalon. If all goes well I should be there on the 31st. I haven't raced since December, so I'm really anxious to burn some paint and trade some foam.:)

Hope you guys can make it to the bowl on the 23rd. I may need someone to show me how to work the radio again.

Greg, I cannot make it there on this weekend or next weekend. Next weekend is the baby's 1st birthday so I have some things to finish up so the wife can have a 1000 people over.

The Bowl is a fun place to race.

I'll be there. I don't have a 21.5. How bout 2s 17.5 or 1s 10.5?

Mike - I'd love to run 17.5, but in order to attract the most racers we really need to be consistant with other tracks in the area. Right now that seems to be 2s 21.5. I don't want to exclude anyone, so maybe you could run 1s 10.5 in the 2s 21.5 class. I don't know how close these would match up?

It would be nice if enough racers show up that we could accomodate multiple classes, but I hate to dilute the classes and end up with just a few cars in each class.

It's people like you always pushing the rules!!:rolleyes: J/K

Any ROAR legal motor and battery is ok. 2s batteries are 3200 max. Not sure about 1s.

Greg H

Anybody have a good starting point for 21.5 rollout? What rollout are guys running at Jackson, NJ. Mushroom Bowl should be close, maybe a tad taller.

Don't think you want to know from me, right Jorge.

You would prob want to be 10 to 30 points lower than a jackson rollout.
