The power went out during the 1/12th GTP mod heats. The official word is that in order to make every thing fair, The entire 1/12th GTP mod class will rerun starting at 0630 tomorrow morning followed by the unrun 2 touring heat races. Oval was delayed and heats are to start at 4:00 p.m. today.

Hello racers. Well another year is in the books. And it was one of the best in my eyes. Few deals of course as always, but will work hard on making next year even better. Turnout was higher than expected and this weekends spectator turnout was amazing. Thanks to all the racers and sponsors for their help in making the Snowbirds possible. We are already looking forward to 2011 at the Radisson! Watch for race coverage appearing all over the net, and I will be making a new front page this week with links as they become available. Lots of videos and pictures to come!

Back to tearing her down.......

THANKS Ron - I wasn't in a hurry for the info - this will give us dimensions to simulate the layout, which I'm sure will help our guys with set up.

maybe next year you can get 2-3 different camera angles to view. it was kinda hard seeing the far end of the track from one end. just an idea.

It was my first time at the Birds and I definately want to do it as often as possible. It truly was the Superbowl of R.C. I was struggling to get the car freed up and the truck to behave at all. It was very kool to get so much help from alot of different camps to get me running well in both classes by the mains. Thanks go out to alot of people, Scot P, Sean C. Hastings and Hernandez, Big,Big, thanks to Eric Brust for a great job tuning up the truck before my B.Q. run. Thanks to Blaser for getting us around town and lots of Hotwire adjustments. Mike Boylan and the Thunder crew put on an awesome program. Can't wait to go back....K:thumbsup:

I want to say a big "THANKYOU!" to Mike & Julie, and the entire Snowbirds Team for once again putting on a fabulous event. It's become one of my favourite things to do every year - attend the 'BIRDS!

Thanks also to Ernie Provetti for his continued support of this event.

Best wishes for the rest of 2010!

I had a great time at the race. I just got home.

I learned a lot from people there and had a great time. I didn't win anything except some new friends.

I have never been to a race that size, Mike ran a great show. Everyone from Tech to Scarecrow annoncing were great.

My hat's off to everyone there!!!!!!!!!!!!!
