Ray, I'll try to get ahold of you this week. If not Mikey P and I are planning on coming up Sunday for a little racing action, and my J-Lap orientation.

The entry list has been updated up to about 09/11/03.

If your not on there and you have sent in an entry-please shoot Aaron (not me) an e-mail. If you send it to me I just forward it to Aaron anyways. Dont expect a reply till the 22nd at a minimum. Hes competing at the Worlds in Cincinnati right now.


Also-check the list over very carefully as some people have chnaged classes and others have not signed up for the classes they verbally said they were going to. Again-e-mail Aaron with specific changes if you have changed classes or see that we placed you in the wrong class.
Ray

Would someone please direct me where the entry list is posted? Thanks.

Shameless bump :devil:

I have checked the entry list the last few days but I havent seen any updated info... is the list on the first page being updated or should I be looking somewhere else?

jos54,

That is the only list I am aware of. Last update was made on 09-15. Should be very close to accurate. Also shows 110 entries and cut off is at 150.


Ray,
Is the Losi crew coming, Schumacher, X-Ray, etc.....?????

RB,
Dumas said he will be the lone ranger. All the Losi/Trinity guys will be at the off-road world's.

No worries-the person running registration is competing for Team Serpent at the Worlds in Cincinnati. When he gets back on Sunday-we wil get the list updated. All mail is going to his house.

Rob-NO Schumacher except Mo and I havent heard from Xray-although I sent Ralph a heads-up about it. With the worlds coming up-I am sure this was far from his mind. if you have Schreven's e-mail-ask him if he is coming!!

They will ALL be here for the Champs Warm-up week and race though.

shameless bump... ha ha, beat you to it Ian! :tongue:

(Insert horror music here) ;)

Hey Ian.......got my Rev. 3 dialed, and it wants to practice a lil cannibalism, got my sights locked on you man. Hope to race with ya soon!

I look forward to it. You know, you're Rev.3 may be a savage headhunter, but I drive like Indiana Jones, and he always manages to get away from whole hordes of angry natives. :devil:

Hey everyone,

The entry lists have been updated. Judging from the great turnout yesterday-this should be a great season again.

Ray

I didn't see Dave Mog's name on the list. He signed up for 1/12, and I think he also orders some motors. Can you double check. I just didn't see him on the list.

Thanks,
Pete

Ray

Hey everyone,

Hope we all had a great Labor Day weekend. Anyhow-we are putting to print the rules package for the race as we speak. The rules will very much mirror the US Indoor Champs and ROAR Rules for Sedan and 12th scale. Here are some of the FAQ's. I will get with Bud to confirm the BRP Rules package as well. I believe the BRP rules are on his website www.brpracing.com .

WEIGHTS
12th scale 29 oz with transponder
Sedan 51oz with transponder

RIDE HEIGHT
12th scale 1/8"
Sedan 4mm

MOTOR
Stock and Masters-Trinity Monster Horsepower Stock can and armature, light Green can. You may not modify the can, endbell or amature from stock in any way shape or form.
Modified-Open

http://www.teamtrinity.com/motors/images/stockheader.jpg

BODIES
Any ROAR approved 12th scale or 190mm 4-door Sedan Body. See www.roarracing.com for approved list.

BATTERIES
Any ROAR Approved battery (Exception made for the EPIC GP3300-only).
12th Scale 4-cell
Sedan 6-cell

And there will be fulltime tech inspectors as well as full time Race Director and Announcer to make sure this event goes with as little cheating as possible!!

EXPECT to have your motor torn down after any heat!!! It wont matter if your TQ, 40th place, my best friend or mortal enemy or you plan on running the motor again in 5 minutes!!!

I am just bringing this back-up for everyone to see again. The rule book is about ready for release. Look for it on the NORCAR website in about a week. E-mail myelf or Aaron with any questions.

Please define "torn down"... does this mean openen and inspected, or unwound...

Please define "torn down"... does this mean openen and inspected, or unwound...

Greg-your acting awfully guilty for a guy who hasnt even run a heat yet!!! Your not related to Rangulo are you? hahaha!!

It is doubtful that it would come to that. I think our tech people will be able to tell a Monster arm from a GM3 arm, or see a cut-off tab, etc.

I hope no B-tthead is dumb enough to think hes gonna get any respect during or after the race as a blatant cheater like that. But-theres all types of losers in this world-so who knows!!

Theres a formal protest that can be filed as well-though itll be so sad if anyone needs to do that.

Ray

Hee hee! That's why I like you so much, Ray! Say it like it is! :D

But, what is a Batthead?

I hope no B-tthead is dumb enough

Ray, no worries, I just want to make sure that a month of dyno time to get my best horse running top notch won't be waisted by having her unwound in the first round of qual's...

Oh, I'm pretty sure we'll be unwinding your motor after the first practice session. Don't worry though I'll put it back together. :devil:

And Jake will supervise Ian. When your motor smells like peanut butter it will be the real thing.

Skippy or Jif? In Jake's case it's probably Peter Pan right? :devil: or ......... Extra Crunchy perhaps :devil: :devil:

I knew a girl that was so dumb she thought Peter Pan was a wash basin in the men's restroom. :D

Ray, I'm still seeing Dave Mog listed under touring. He should be in 1/12 stock

MOD classes are CLOSED. TO be put on a waiting list-please e-mail Aaron Buran @ simon01@ameritech.net as some Mod drivers who have asked to participate have not paid yet or have to cancel.

I am working on a top secret, highly classified, major detailed, paint job for my new ride for the Halloween Classic.

Does anyone have a half way decient TC3 body I could use until the race. I want to get a few runs on the new car, but I don't know if my lid will be ready until the race, plus I won't want to destroy it before it's time. :)

My last good body was sold with my old car. I may just run a few laps in practice the week of the 5th, but I was planning on running two cars on the 1/12.

If you have a extra body that isn't too ruffed up, please bring it on the 5th.

Thanks,
Pete

Guys, thanks for getting Dave in the correct class.

This may be a silly questions, but MOD is closed with 30 entries. How will the bump up's work?

with the classes be set with 9, 9, 9, and 3, to allow space for the winner of the last heats to bump up? or am I missing something?

Pete,

as posted a few weeks ago-there are NO BUMP UPs as this is now a USTC race-which do not allow bump-ups. Sorry!! The entry form reflects this as well.

Ray

Hello all,

I did a tour of HOTELS last week and checked a room at every one of the ones in the area. Here is what I have come-up.

Red Roof Inns. Very nice-my #1 choice.

Econolodge-A little old, but clean and seems well managed.

Days Inn-okay.

Knights Inn-well lets not talk abut that. If youve got a reservation their-move it to the Red Roof or the Econolodge.

I will give you detailed info like phone numbers and addresses later today when my daughter takes a nap!!! :)

Ray

Why isn't 'Chez Huang' and 'Chez Shields' listed in that hotel list? I heard they also provide a shuttle to the track. :p

Ray

Guys I know this is out of your element, but if you know anyone who likes to race 1/8th scale off road gas can you tell them to visit my new thread in the Off road section? I am building a new track, but there is alread one on Rt. 306 in Bainbridge. The guys race there every other Sunday, early. No lap counting yet, but we are looking (Ray - if you can help me out with that I would appreciate it) So I hope everyone has a great season and I will be in and out periodically to check on you guys. Keep the shiny side up!

Ray... Thanks for the hotel info! I just called and got my room.

Yeah, thanks Ray...thanks for the ride...

Hey all,

There have been some changes to the entry list with some people not coming or changing classes. PLease look the list over very carefully.

If you havent signed up yet, you will most likely go on a waiting list. There are only 5 spots left in Stock Sedan, one in Masters and one in BRP 1/18th scale.

We will NOT put you on the waiting list without an entry form and payment on Aaron's desk.

Thanks,
Ray
p.s. YYYAAHOOO!!!

Is Hara actually comin'? Or is he pulling the old Masami Hirosaka style, send in my entry in case I decide I actually wanna go trick?

Ray, sound like we will have a full house. Dave and I will continue to try to keep everyone hydrated with ice cold soda and water, and keep plenty of snacks handy if that is ok with you, Jimmy and Aaron.
