Hey Mike. Thanks for letting me borrow the 1900 motor without it I couldn't of raced. I will get it back to you monday or tuesday. The racing was great on Saturday. Thanks again.

Hey Joe, no problem on the buggy motor and don't make a special trip to bring it back. Until I get a battery, the buggy is just sitting anyway. I was glad to see you come and race with us, it turned out to be a nice day. The forecast is looking great for this week, we'll have the track tuned up and be ready for our July 3rd race!

See Ya Soon!

Have there been many nitro buggy guys racing the past few weekends?

Hey Kenny.

We have had several nitro buggies show up even though there were two bigger races going on two different weekends (King of Kings at Stateline and Nitro Tri-County West at Duke's). When we get a nice weekend (this next Saturday is looking very good) I expect we'll have a nice full heat and it would not surprise me to end up with two. Our track is a little unique because it is fast and works well for both 10th and 8th scales. Come on down and check us out, we're having a great time at Granger Raceway!

See Ya Trackside :thumbsup:

Hey Steve, I have the vegas version loaded on my computer in the office. If you come over after work on Wednesday I can help you set it up and give you a quick lesson on how it works and then you can run a few laps to test it out. I have some pinions that we can try rather than you buying a bunch for now too. If you need help with the hotwire before Wednesday just give me a call and I'll try to help. That setup should give us a baseline and there are a bunch of tweaks to do from there depending how the truck is working!

thanks mike...i do have some pinions but nothing lower than a 23.

Come on over, I have a few things to try.

I was just looking at the forecast for this week and it is finally looking beautiful! The conditions at Granger Raceway are going to be perfect for our July 3rd race. Lets get them all out next saturday and have our best turnout yet! Who's in and for what classes?

See Ya Saturday :thumbsup:

Hey Beamer ... How is your boy's Blitz coming along?

whats up dennis, his blitz is a full roller now just waiting on electronics.
i let him drive after the race saturday and he did pretty good.
my truck was overheating so we had to shut it down.
it overheating on me in the main and started shutting down.
had a pretty good run going with only a couple of crashes.
hope to get the boy out soon he seems excited.:thumbsup:

If I don't go to RedBud I be up for some Mod truck or 1/8 scale Gas.

That will be cool. Maybe you and your son could take on Mike and Austin in the Clash of the Dad's or something like that.

Actually it works great! All classes can get across and we have had very few conflicts. It actually creates a very interesting dynamic with trucks going both directions and makes for awesome photo op's. I do have some video and lots of pictures to put on our website but have been too busy making the track ready to race and just have not found the time.

Come on out Saturday and check it out in person, it's going to be a great day!

Anytime boys! I love old fashioned grudge matches! :)

a father son race with pitstops and driver changes sounds cool

a father son race with pitstops and driver changes sounds cool

Actually, we have been talking about three-man teams, stock SC, 15 minutes each racer with a mandatory driver AND battery change, each racer runs a 15 minute leg for a 45 minute enduro. The idea would be to have a novice - mid-level and an expert make up a team to try and even them out.

Who has interest in this kind of race?

It's a cool concept! I miss long mains:-) and mains in general lol. Haven't seen an electric endure since velodrome racing in Indy! The balancing would be pretty hard to do IMO. Sounds like it would work better as a spec type event.

Had a great time up there Saturday. Thanks to everyone for making me feel welcome and a special thanks to the Erdelyi's for helping me pit all day. I will be back again when it works for me and hopefully i'll have a few more nitro buddies with me. Track flowed very well for the 1/8th scales. X-over is sweet and works great!!

what say is racing? time? pit table? ac power?

what say is racing? time? pit table? ac power?

Track opens at 8:00 am, practice until 10:40, race at 11:00. We aim to be done between 6:00 and 7:00 so everybody can be home at a reasonable time.

We run three and a main with a re-sort for the third qualifier. $15.00 first entry, $5.00 any additional entries. We have plenty of power, just bring extension cord, table and chair. We do have some shady spots to pit so a canopy is not needed but there is plenty of room for them too!

We have room for those with trailers and this is a nice comfortable place to hang out and race.

:hat:Hey guys just wonderin what time practice runs from on wednesdays , now that the weather is cooperating with us I gotta get in there for some practice before I jump into a raceday

Cool!

We had a nice practice crowd this evening. The track was very nice thanks to the GORCR crew and everyone had a good time. With the beautiful weather we have had this week the track and grounds are going to be in great shape for Saturday!

Expect a nice crowd and a great day of racing!

Actually, you picked the strongest two classes. The stock SC has had the most entries with 8th electric buggy not far behind. We have been consistently growing and I expect a nice turnout.

Mr. Losi with an AE?! Sounds like he's calling you out Jimbo! Now all we need is for Ted Felowski to get one too, maybe I'll give him mine to run - it works pretty well! :)
