Currently, we are planning to run at the same location as the indoor track.

If that does not work out, we do have an alternate venue to use.

The venue hasn't changed, we'll be running at the carpet track location.

We'll set the track up on Saturday, and the track will open at 9am on Monday. Racing will start at 12:30pm. Entry fee is $5 w/ pitting outside, and $10 w/ pitting inside.

Hope to see everyone there!!

Eric,on the you build versions they are the same. The rtr's use a different type of bone.(instead of the cup being on the bone they are on the axle shaft). However if you use the whole assembly from the team kits they will work fine. Walter

Greg Anthony
05-15-2003, 02:07 PM
Walt, you goingt o just be running Nitro, or are you going to run Mod sedan too? You doing any MARS races this year with the B4?

Hey Nick, could give me an idea of what classes you guys will be running on the 26th? Mainly will there be any Rubber Nitro or F-1 classes? I'll try and gather up a group from GR to come out.

NTwigs
05-20-2003, 01:54 PM
Hey guys, sorry I haven't been around. I'm still recovering from the MARS race last weekend. Yes, we will be racing on Monday May 26. It looks like we will be running in Frandor. I'll be posting the exact location tommorrow.

NTwigs

Aaron, we were going to race on Sunday, but, I have to be at a baptism . I'm the godfather, and I couldn't duck out to run races. So, since it's a holiday, I thought we would hold a race.

Hey Bob, what have you and the old man been up to ?

Hey Bob, what have you and the old man been up to ?

Barry,
Well lets see: Cleveland, then a few weeks of oval practice, then the Snowbirds, then the Oval Nationals all of which was interfered with by too darn much work. Then more work, now we're trying to run some gas on-road for me and Bobby is getting ready to go to the on-road nationals.

Other than all that, not much. How about you?

Ted

Barry Z
05-21-2003, 06:13 PM
Hey Ted,
Nothing much. Took a shot at RC planes. Drilled one into the ground
and split another one in half. I went to Lazer a couple a weeks ago which
was nice and went to Canton last week which wasn't.... I'm going to do
electric this summer and probably try and sell my nitro TC3. I'm looking at the new HPI R40 gas car and will probably get one for next summer (maybe). I wanted to race this weekend but looks like the weather isn't going to cooperate. Nankin Hardware is running on Sunday in a church
parking lot somewhere near Wayne road and Cherryhill but they don't start till 2 PM !!!!!! Don't see how that's going to work.
See you around, I'm sure........

Ted Flack
05-21-2003, 07:34 PM
We want to race this weekend too. The weather looks bad but it will probably change...I hope. Lazer is probably our choice for Sunday. Might even go to Lansing Monday too...depending on weather.

Well, to tell you the truth, I don't know yet. Kinda depends on weather. We might go Sunday to Lazer and /or Monday to Lansing, again, depends on weather.

I'll let you know tomorrow night. After I check out the weather.

Mines getting a little irritated asking me when/where I'm going racing this weekend(depends on the weather) My answer: I don't know yet...haven't decided yet. Gawd they hate getting a dose of there own medicine...hehehehe. I do HATE this Michigan weather crap!!

Ted Flack
05-24-2003, 09:56 AM

In mod sedan I'd like to run rubber tires. I hope we have enough guys who will run rubber tires and mod. I can run foam but would rather not. A couple of big races coming up so I need to get the practice with rubber.

Nitro sedan I can run either but would perfer foam.

Bobby Flack
05-24-2003, 12:25 PM
I'm hoping to run mod.. I'm gonna run rubber. If theres a foam class, then ill still run rubber.

Definetly Nitro foam though.

Greg Anthony
05-24-2003, 05:08 PM

05-24-2003, 05:36 PM
Well I just checked the weather (not a wife or girlfriends name) it looks good for racing so long as I am home at a reasonable hour on Monday to take Jamie (aka Weather) to dinner. Monday will definately be at Nicks ... the Question is about Sunday. Practice in Taylor with my old Chums or go try a new track at Lazer ... the choices and sacrifices one must make for our hobby .....
