Guys I need some help tonight on the outdoor track. In the SW corner and part of the NW corner where the concrete blocks will be set (only the foot print of the blocks) needs to be leveled so when we place them they will look nice and level.

So if you've got some dirt tools please bring them along so we can hammer it out. Since its all fresh dirt, it shouldn't take more then 15 minutes with a couple guys. We'd like to place the block tomorrow, since dirt will begin arriving at 8AM!!!!

I hate you all! Everyone is starting to really get fast. I have to work my butt off to stay in the top 5 now days.

Sure makes for fun racing though doesn't it? :thumbsup:

The Super Stock Truck A-Main was like a freight train for about half the race before anyone could start to break away from the pack. Still almost half the field finished on the same lap.

I'm happy to say that E and I can still have fun messing with each other too. :wave:

Good thing you caught that one Joe, I just got the ROAR notification. You left the part out that he can only drive a Duratrax or Radio Shack RC and all batteries need to be from Dollar General.:thumbsup:

Yes, do you know how much the stand weights? I am guessing you will need 4 - 6 inches of cement to support it. Its pretty simple to layout the foundation frame, level it, then you just pour cement and flatten it out. Let me know when and I can try to get a sitter and come out and get it ready for cement.

Shhhhhhhhh dont say that. We had to convince Uncle E that he did not need to make this track 220 foot by 120 foot. If you go saying that, he is just going to make it as big as he can.

The current size is perfect, not to big, not to small.....and of course plenty of room to expand if Uncle E ever gets that bug in him. Lets hope not, this is plenty big.

Brayden and I had a BLAST at practice tonight. Brayden ran just about non stop all night long with his Kyosho SC and he loved it...The kid took right off! There was a good group of guys with Nitro buggy's and it was fun to mix it up a little... I went out back to check the outdoor track and I will say it is impressive...Nice drivers stand! Cant wait to run on it!

No way...I think Bman should have to start with a Slash and then earn his way into the Kyosho.

So if he wins with the Slash he gets to use a Blitz, then if he wins with that then he has to finsh top 3 with an SC10, then at the finals he must race and finish in the top 3 in a Losi Strike...

Then he we be able to race the Kyosho..lollolololol lmao

We want to try 5:00PM for Saturday racing. We realize there are many locals that work until 3ish on Saturdays so we dont want to start to early. There are also a number of out of town people who dont want to be driving home at 1:00AM. So to try to find a balance, we are moving Saturdays race start time to 5:00PM. Please make note of it.
