Thats right Tony, everyone did have a great time and what about all thoes spectators, awesome. I'm even thinking about getting a T4. The truck class seems to have a lot of fun.

Fred,

That would be great if you got a truck too. The truck class is having a lot of fun and there is room for you and Andrew. You might even want to run it indoors this winter because it is a lot of fun too.

Yeah Fred, but you'd need a wig or something to race in the powder puff class!
:devil:

John,

you might want to try it too.

Yeah, your right. Say, can I borrow yours?
I would Fred, but Eric has it.

John, you can keep the skirt though. I won't be needing that.
Yeah, I figured that much since I knew you already had one. Pink isn't it?

I hate to spoil your fun, but the women said that they don't want ya'll to ruin their fun.

Mark Twain today, Edgar Allen Poe tomorrow?
Fred..... you okay?

My wife said she is going to run my truck this saturday:thumbsup:

Hey Fred, why not get that truck ready and let Mary drive it?

Hey everyone, Mike Howe here, I managed to get ahold of a valid E-mail account so I could register for hobby talk.. Ya'll gona get real sick of me... :devil:
BTW
I had a lot of fun last saturday.. It was an awesome day, I got to pit with some awesome people, and I was pretty sucessful.. And I won $5! Does that mean I am now a professional R/C car driver?? :confused:

Are you guys running on July 3rd??? if so, who's interested in running some mod 1/12th???
anyone????

Greg - As far as I know, we'll be racing on July 3rd, but I wouldn't hold much hope for 12th scale. The track is great for 12th, but we can never seem to get much interest in running a consistent class.

We have been getting a decent turnout for Mod Touring though (w/ foams), if that's of any interest to you.

Denney

Hey Fred, why not get that truck ready and let Mary drive it?I would but Andrew would'nt like that very much and Mary is just not interested.

Where glad you had fun and look forward to seeing you again. Nice job on your win by the way.
Fred.

We will be racing July 3rd. I would like to see a class of 1/12 scale. We ran them a couple of times last year and they were really cool.

I'll run rubber tire TC... you guys that were at Lansing know I can hang.. and the new car is faster then the old one too...

And for 1/12th, Mod 8-minute is what i want to run, who's in??? Someone call Terry, and I'll have Nick harass Walter...

SS.... IM me with the new SN when you LO, OK?
.

I should be able to make it again this saturday.. I'll be home friday for a docters appointment.. That's if I can afford it after the docters with no insurance.. That place is a scam.. I wish being healthy didn't cost so damn much.. :mad:

Hey Fred, ask andrew if he wants to run Stock Truck with me this weekend? We could use another good driver up there.. Roy and I were really goin at it.. but hey, 3's a crowd! :)

"Stephen Steward"......... I like it!

If it gets any cooler out I'll start thinking about carpet racing.

If it gets any cooler out I'll start thinking about carpet racing.
It's supposed to go down to 45 tonight.
Oh, and I already am!

Have you check out Ozite carpet lately?

rolls are 125' x 12'. rolls vary in size, some shorter, some longer. Call to check current stock. A roll that size is 166.666 square yards and the price of the carpet ranges from $3.75 - $4.25 per square yard depending on quantity and ordering situation.

Wow, that's a good price!
Somebody should buy about four new rolls
to make a 48' X 120' track.......

It'll be a little more than $3,000.00 if they buy now!!
(after adding in tax and freight by BIG truck from New York)

In fact, Steven's working two jobs, maybe he'll buy?

You could get by with 35X72 for about half the cost

Three rolls would be better. If you cut each roll into 40' sections
and laid them in the same direction we did at the skating rink.
Three rolls cut like that would yield a track size of 40' X 108'
(which I'm sure you remember is the size we put down in the rink)

Hummmmmm, is that an offer? LoL!
