rcovalracer 11-23-2003, 04:18 PM Well Richard C. set TQ and won the A-Main,it was a little chilly but we had a great time under the lights.There were several new bodies out last night. Chris F. set TQ in trucks and won also.Hope to see you guys from Ga. and Jacksonville at the track sometime.
Kevin
how many laps did Richard run??
Echeconnee 11-23-2003, 08:40 PM What is the schedule like for the rest of the year? Give dates and times please. We want to get back down there very soon. I will be changing our schedule next season to make it easier to get down even more so let Scott know we will be moving to the 2nd and 4th weekend of the month for the 2004 season. We will be racing the 7th and the 21st of December to finish up the year. Starting in January we will be running the the 11th and 25th.
rcovalracer 11-23-2003, 08:41 PM We were not fast at all, looked liked we were all in 6's or low 7's for some,but there was only two 6 second laps ran all night,one by Richard and one by me in the truck.Me and Richard both ran 41 laps in a heat race but he won the Main with 40 laps.I broke in the car main,and started with a broken t-plate LOL (to cold to change it)in the truck main...Chris won that one,while I finished 2nd doing donuts on the straightaways..We had fun,wish you guys would have made it..
I would contact Scott on the schedules, I myself would like for you guys to start a little sooner,because it is a long haul back and it is late when we would get back and then we have to be at work Monday morning.

Joe Malin
Echeconnee 12-24-2003, 11:06 PM Jo MAmma the MAcon GAng will be down there on the 11th
Joe Malin 12-24-2003, 11:16 PM Cliff,
Can't say I'll make it on the 11th. I'll be at MinnReg running on rug getting ready for Birds. Thought I'd drive down Sunday to see this new track. I think I saw it on the right side of 301 when I was going to Clearwater for the Turkey Shoot. Is this a CAP or FOAM track?
Ya'll have a Safe and Happy Holiday...........
Echeconnee 12-25-2003, 12:36 AM Joe, this track has been around as long as ours or longer. It's about 15 minutes south of lake city, I can't remember the road. It's hard to find the first time though so call and get good directions
Echeconnee 12-25-2003, 12:38 AM Btw this is a cap track and it's bumpy enough to give it some character. They have a good bunch down there and the track is fun

David Butts 12-25-2003, 11:48 AM Cliff,
Can't say I'll make it on the 11th. I'll be at MinnReg running on rug getting ready for Birds. Thought I'd drive down Sunday to see this new track. I think I saw it on the right side of 301 when I was going to Clearwater for the Turkey Shoot. Is this a CAP or FOAM track?

Joe are you refering to the gokart track in Starke? Its the one you can see from 301 and its just a litle bigger than hw. And to get to where these other directions will lead you to this track go west on I-10 to exit 324(us-90)west into lake city then take sr-247 into branford then follow the provided map. The track used to be dirt years ago and some of the people including Scott and his wife have been up here to race.
David Butts 12-25-2003, 11:53 AM Racing on sundays and every sunday? Do tell what is the setup for stock gearing and such. As a truck driver I used to pick up pinestraw from just south of the intersection of 247 and 129 at the green(cant remember the name) warehouse. I think I can find Scotts track too. I always wondered where it was. It'd be nice to put faces with these screen names. Also as a cap track, are foams competitive or are caps a must have?[SIZE=1][SIZE=1][SIZE=1]
parrott88 12-25-2003, 12:47 PM caps, surface is rough with alot of grip. foams would not last to long
Echeconnee 12-25-2003, 07:53 PM yea, no go on the foams. Greens on the right reds on the left, full stagger is what I run. The track is 285 in the runline and I think the record is in the 46 in 5 minutes range. Jerry is the only one who knows for sure
bigdon18 12-26-2003, 01:36 PM Rcovalracer
thats some sweet looking bodys, and the video was really neat ,, looks like some one blew a right front at dover in a nascar race :eek:.
Me and tim have been talking about coming down and running with yall maybe the 11th would be a good time if everyone from ga is coming down ,, might have to get with wade and follow him in from valley.
i raced at brandford one time before about 6 to 7 years ago and had a good time but i dont really remember how to get there.
BIGDON
rcovalracer 12-26-2003, 09:40 PM Bigdon I don't think you will have a hard time finding it on the 11th,just follow the trailors from Ga...Wade,Cliff and the rest of the Ga. gang know how to get here,just ask one of them...
I have some other videos if you guys are interested in seeing them,they are all from Branford...Looks like real nascar :)
Bigdon I think I met you at the last trophy race at FCCR,we didn't chat but I asked you about what gear to run stock there,I was pitting with Doug D. from the touring class...Hope to see yall the 11th... Kevin

rcovalracer 12-28-2003, 12:08 AM :( ok guys today my wonderful Gateway computer crashed..Looks like I will be kinda slow with the website for a little while,about 28.8 modem slow(old IBM)....Took me a hour to get here
IMPORTANT INFO: rcovalracer- Kevin, me screwed up on the records that were held on my website (http://www.kevinsrc.tk), I would like to apologize to Jerry who has the track record...I'm sure he didn't mind he has 47 hidden somewhere, :) Sorry Wade for posting you had the record, I will change it tonight if my snail of a computer can make it there before 1:00... KEVIN
Willis I think you need to bring your lucky hat for the trucks,or get a
E-Maxx...

rcovalracer 12-28-2003, 08:34 PM Jerry ran a 46 laps and won the A-Main...

Echeconnee 12-28-2003, 08:39 PM I knew today was going to be a beauty, I just couldn't see myself fighting the traffic all the way home.
