spider004 11-04-2009, 03:17 PM The layout of the track will be 20x40 for onroad and 16x40 for oval. This is a little smaller than planned but it will have to do until we can afford a bigger place.
Mike Clark 11-04-2009, 11:51 PM Road course or oval first? Give me a call when ready!:thumbsup:
spider004 11-05-2009, 12:03 AM Mike- if we run out of money it will be oval!! I'm open to either one whatever you guys wanna run.
spider004 11-05-2009, 12:41 PM Mike-sent you pm
spider004 11-09-2009, 08:25 PM We will be setting up the oval first and see how it goes. Brp cars will be the feature but will run any 1/18 scale car that wants to run. There are 3-4 of the Losi late models that I know will show. More info coming soon!

Hey James,
Just let me know when and where.
ScottH 11-10-2009, 01:14 AM Mike -- we are going to need some pinions!
What are you guys going to run for a motor battery/combo?
spider004 11-10-2009, 10:13 AM Scott- we are going to try the slot car motor and batteries y'all use or bump up to the Associated 370 closed endbell motor. Going to keep it as cheap as possible. Most of us will be racing Lakeland too so the less stuff to buy the better.
Thanks
James

James
spider004 12-02-2009, 02:30 AM Ordered scoring system from Carl and will be using LapsFree and anyone that has transponder that works at Lakeland it will work at our track!!
James
ScottH 12-02-2009, 08:41 AM GREAT NEWS!
I think you will find that it is a great system. Perfect for our type of racing. Now download that free lapcounting software and you are good to go!
spider004 12-04-2009, 04:38 PM Looks like track should be set up by Monday. If anyone wants to come by during the week just let me know.

Not yet but will have it by end month. Any requested days and times for anyone wanting to race this winter would be great and I will try and go by that. Thanks and hope to see you at the next one.

bamaguy0 12-09-2009, 04:47 AM Hey guys, my name is Cameron. I'm a sophomore at UA and I'm looking to get back into R/C's. I used to bash and occasionally race a Revo up in North Alabama, and I'm looking for something on the college student budget. It's looking like this is a perfect place for me.
I haven't gotten a car yet, but I have been looking. If I got an Associated RC18R would there be people to run with? If not, what would be another option?
I don't have anything to do Wednesday(9th), would anyone be at the place? I'd like to check it out before I head back home for Christmas break, but I will most likely come back to TTown ready to race, or at least almost ready to.
ScottH 12-09-2009, 08:43 AM Your best bang for the buck is the car by BRP.

Here is a video of the racing we do at LakeLand Speedway in Hueytown.
