sounds like a great class Mike! i hope its a good turnout. might be a nice choice for some of the guys in sk that havent tried pan car yet to start out in.

good job Mike!! This will be a FUN class

Are you guys going to run with the RCH and P'burgh guys? they have a series and I am planning on trying to get as many tracks in on this as we can.

:woohoo: We'd love to coordinate a race/series with other tracks!!! :woohoo:

hey mike ...I think this will be a great class......curious why Mccallister only bodies?

Can we use Protoform c.o.t bodies

This class was put together with just this in mind.

This class has been in the building stages for awhile. And after having several other tracks/owners involved in the rule package we thought it to be best to stick with the McCallister body due to it's thicker design and Durability. Along with the fact that this is the body that other tracks have ran all season, Last season.

As for the protoform body? It's way too light and has way too many tuning options with the rear wing. Not to say they couldnt be run in any other class. We(tracks involved) Feel as though they can't be mixed in the same class.

We're really excited to get this class off the ground, There should be a multi-track series coming this season with all tracks running the exact same rules.

Can we use Protoform c.o.t bodies

Sorry, McCallister ONLY!

Sounds like a really good class.I think this is what oval needs:thumbsup:

YOU GONNA RACE THERE???????????:rolleyes:

I hope to next fall.Depends on my work schedule.

OK guys, this coming Sunday(6-7-09) Starts our summer points series. Who's gonna be running the new Class? Lets make this entry level class work to get new racers on the track.

Empty Class, 0 entries:confused:

really.....................sorry to hear that.I wish you guys were closer,I would like to try this class.Hope it takes off for you.

That sucks that you changed the date at the last minute, I would have made it with more notice and if you run it on Saturday you should have the same hours that you have when you run it on Sunday so you can finish at a desent hour. Just my .02

Bob T

bob, its a club race this weekend. he only changed the date because sun. is fathers day and a lot of people wouldnt be able to make it.the 2nd points race is still sunday july 19th.

Thanks no problem, see you guys in the fall

Bob T

I think what Bob was referring to is that the Summer Series could have been run on Saturday and more people would have attended. Look, at best, they could have run half the series on Saturday and half on Sunday. By stincking to their guns they shut out many people that would have travelled. Too bad!

See you in the fall,
Antonio

SO, How about this new Sportsman Classs that's being offered at Turn 4? This is perfect platform for any new or returning racer to get up to speed with chassis tuning and driving. Turn 4 will be open again on July 5th for regular club racing. Next points race is July 19th.

Hows the C.O.T. Spec class going at this time??????????.

Hows the C.O.T. Spec class going at this time??????????.Full house !!!!!!!!!!!!

TCM,I've been watching this thread too,hoping to see if anythings happening.

1 COT car last weekend from a NY racer. No interest yet for the summer but many of our racer's take the summer off to race dirt. We're hopefull the class will gain interest in the fall when the season starts.

Thanx for the info Kim??.

Yes Sandy, that was me (Kim) that posted. Sorry I've been MIA lately. Been a little busy trying to find a full time job, making wedding plans & do all the daily mumbo jumbo especially now that Mike is back to work full time.

Hope all is well with you sandy. Hope you are enjoying retirement from uponamountain!

Kim,youi can handle it im sure.Fall is comminn right around the corner,things will get busier up on the banks .I have been tryinn do to my summer hobby but mother nature has not been kind,LIQUID SUNSHINE LOL.Oh ya,retirement is great,everyday is a Saturday now !!!!!!!!!!!!.:thumbsup::wave:

Oh what a life . Have fun sandy see you soon

It will be my pleasure to see you Ken,have fun.

The class never got a chance during the regular racing season so, since no one showed up over the summer they decided it was to slow and there was no interest but, a few of us are bringing the COT 17.5 with us for Stockified and I think there will be enough for a FUN class. See you there

Bob do they make gears big enough to run there ?

I'll Let You Know :)

yea throw a 70 spur on it and you should be go to go with 55- 65 pins

I threw down my flat track car 10# front springs 5' antidive LF straight off track from RCH hung 4 teeth to it 4.07. no prob. used a 76 spur. plenty of room for more.

Tibs i heard it went pretty well!

From what I saw Sunday it's going to be pretty close to the old 4 cell stock speed. I believe Nick Dorocz made one qualifying run and went 54 laps with a COT body. It'll be interesting at the Stockified race. See you all there, Bill B.
