rise and shine! time for the biggest race of the season, see you all @ bula!:wave:

6am the journey to the LAKE ERIE SHOOTOUT HAS BEGUN FOR TEAM short BUS!!! HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE.

Super fun layout. Tons of bite. The ripples definitely separate the men from the boys. Everybody is running really tight together. The top positions are separated by hundreds of a second. Should be some good battles in the mains tomorrow.

Can't wait to watch the mains.

just wanted to say thanks to the bula crew for putting on a hell of a show, racing has been damn tight. also thanks scott o for the tips on the truck and to tim and ryan for lending tires and to everyone else that has lent a hand,tip etc. Thanks all for a good time, cant wait for the mains.

Yoo, someone post qualifying after the first 3 rounds please!!!!!

Would love to see some qualifying results!!!!!!!!

Anyone have video after all this is over would be great also.

Will Dan be able to smoke or be smoked is the question?

I had a blast and picked up some harware, not exactly the place I wanted but it will do until next time.

Congratulations to Ryan for another well run and fun Lake Erie Shootout.
Brenda and I are proud to be able to say we played a small part in this event.

Thanks to all the racers that participated, the action was pure entertainment and the sportmanship was refreshing. Truly a great group of people.

A hearty round of applause to all the winners and those that made the podium.

Fred and Brenda

Well i got my a** handed to me LOL but i still had alot of fun. The competition is always great here and the sportsmanship is 2nd to none around here. We thrive to push everybody's abilities to the limits. Thus creating close racing for all levels. I hope everybody enjoyed there weekend! My weekend was a great especially getting to see my daughter win her 1st trophy on her own :thumbsup:... That completed my weekend! :)

Thanks again to Ryan and the 'bula crew for a fun weekend. Both me and Bonnie had a lot of fun and will definately make it back up there as soon as we can. Grats to all the winners today, and once more thanks and kudos to ARCS hobbies for a good show.

Great race weekend at the "Lake Erie Shootout".

Parts that stand out:

Brandon Marsh driving on the wall in the 1/8 buggy race.

Ben Moiso Mod Truck A main he was dialed!

The Modd CORR race. Jason + Rudy what a good close race.

There were many other good races the whole weekend. A lot of good, clean racing.

Thanks to everyone who came to ARCS for the race.

WOW!!! I just got my stuff unloaded and I'm exhausted. Thanks AGAIN to all of the sponsors who donated all of the great door prizes. I think Bill Shay was the BIG winner today... two 1st place finishes and a second place finish.... and a couple hats, a 2wd buggy kit, a half dozen diff kits, a tool kit, tires.... He won more door prizes than most tracks give away at their trophy race!!

Again, thank you to the following for supporting the door prizes:

bill shay

I am just glad the pushing finally paid off and you never gave up. Most people would fold under the relentless pressure but you kept coming back for more, kept learning, and look the results now show you are capable. Give it a little more time and you will be a threat to show up anywhere and contend for the win in any class you chose to run! I can see it and i hope you see it now too :thumbsup: Once again good job! Competition and clean racing is what makes the hobby enjoyable for me. Hopefully i can work through the personal situation i have put myself in so i can put more focus back into doing what i like and that is racing with all the people i get to run with on a weekly basis...

Ryan and ARCS crew

Thanks for a great weekend of racing. The program was run flawlessly and the track was awesome. Almost every main was exciting to watch as well as being in. I can't wait to attend next years event and congrats to all the winners.

I had a great time this weekend! Thanks for the hard work and great racing!!

Great weekend of racing and a well ran program, thanks for a great time. There was some wild competition from racers age 5 to 60

As always, top notch painting of my two son’s cars by Steve Protchko.

A big thanks to all the sponsors, and especially B-FAST for all the prizes/COOKIES. Fred and Brenda, you two are great for the hobby.

Julie G. thanks for the great food, as always. Jasmyne Neer's birthday cupcakes were tasty.

Ricky D, nice job on the construction of podium.

I am truly grateful for a track, so close to home, with the high caliber of racers who attend on a weekly basis. ARCS racers freely share their ideas, set ups and constructive criticisms with anyone. To be the best you need to race the best. The racers that keep returning every week, and having their butts handed to them are the true winners, and will be at the top of their game.

Thanks Ryan and ARCS crew. :thumbsup:

Bill Shay, you setting up a Hobby Shop? You have enough stuff to stock one. :wave:

I would have loved to attend this race but it wasn't in the cards this time. Congrats to all the winners:thumbsup:
