Looking like a great group of racers coming for some fun in the sun and awesome side-by-side short track oval racing. 30 days and counting!!!

is it best to fly into Orlando tryin to get a quick roadtrip in SRM

Rocket, I would fly into Tampa. The track is about a hour south of tampa, Going into Orland would add about an hour to you drive.

Or sarasota?

Orlando is about 2 hours away, Tampa is about 1 hour away. Hope to see ya - wow some beatin' and bangin' Florida asphalt style (it doesn't get much more exciting).

FEW MORE WEEKS - time to ROCK N ROLL!!!

Rocket fly into Sarasota (SRQ). Since my parents live next to the track I have flown there several times. The track is about 10 to 15 min from the airport. Nice airport easy to get in and out of.

great racing!!! we had 3 cars run single cell!!!! woooooooo

no problems in tech and everyone left happy!

thanks mike boylan for a fun day!

Mike Boylan runs thee most efficient r/c racing in the world. Hands down. Had a tech person who marked the voltage and temp of each racer's battery as they came up so if there was a question later on, they could go back and look it up. He followed the stated rules. Everyone was H A P P Y !!!! He even had a giant size thermometer so everyone could see the ambient temperature (it showed 130+). Hot!!

Great day guys! Thanks everyone... it sure was fun and racing was intense. Bunch of race pictures here:
