Never apologize. That means you're fallible.

Just kidding with you by the way. Can't make it up there anyway, now.

19T is open tire. We didn't have enough entries last year in the 19T to split them up.

We will be racing the next 3 weekends, July 25th, Aug 1st and the 7th and 8th.

As for other classes, we need to have at least 3 entries to race.

Yeah, I probably should stop at Radio Shack since I imagine they have a better car out now from what I purchased last year. Time to upgrade!

Nooooo way.. I'll have the cash pay-out for winning the MGR ( Michigan Gas Racers ) Series in 1/8 scale, so I'll have plenty of cash for buying new On-road gear for this fall.. Thats not till the end of August though..

Who has a car I can borrow for next weekend?? Maybe 1 from Greg's huge fleet.. :dude:

Hi Greg, I been a little busy lately.

Well, here's the schedule for Saturday and Sunday.

Saturday- Track opens at 1pm. Open until 8pm.

Sunday- Track opens at 7am, racing at 11am. 3 heats and a main.

The track will be set up on Friday evening.

I have also been asked about the 19T motor rules. The 19T motor allowed will be the same as the ROAR rules posted on this site. Also C2's and Reedy Quad mags will be allowed as well. The armatures MUST be stamped or tagged with the 19T label, i.e. EPIC 19, YOK 19, SPEC 19, so they are easily identified. Also the adjustable timing motors are legal, but no more than 36 degrees of timing.

Also, just as a reminder, NO Hybrids. No Yokomo arms in a Orion can, etc.

BTW, here the link to the ROAR rules on 19T.

Nick, Nick, Nick,

Those are the OVAL only "limited 19t modified rules." Not the Super Stock 19t that are for on-road and oval. As of now the only legal motor is the newer C2 from trinity. They changed the winding to be cross-over wrap to make it legal for the new rules. The older C2 and the Reedy Flame 19t are not ROAR legal because they are "hemi" wound. Now you might ask but they used the Reedy one as the handout for 19t at outdoor nats. Well a handout motor doesn't have to be ROAR legal.

So it is my suggestion to Nick to only allow the C2 and the Reedy Flame in 19t. After all changing the rules a week before the race would make this just like the real sacutioning body. hehehehehe

NTwigs
08-02-2004, 05:45 PM
Well Brian, I guess we will only use C2' and Reedy Spec 19's or the Reedy Quad Mag 19t's. That will just make it easier. Does that clear up any 19T confusion??

Mac The Knife
08-02-2004, 06:08 PM
I didn't realize that this was a Roar Sanctioned race,,,,,, It even sounds like we have a class of onroad MONSTER trucks running!!

Xpressman
08-02-2004, 06:15 PM
Nick I think that will make it alot easier. I'ld hate to win because I brought all my oval stuff with me. hehehe

Mac,

It's not ROAR sancutioned but it is easier to just say use motors that fit what their rule book says. Unfortunately they have 2 sets of rules for 19t one for oval only and another one for onroad/ offroad.

Also are we using qual points or best qualifier? If it is qual points is it best single round, throwouts, or all included?

I hope I make it to the second day.

Sorry Nick I couldn't resist.

Greg Anthony
08-02-2004, 06:20 PM
Nick, I know you have been.... but if I didn't harass you, you'd wonder what was wrong with me.

And what about the body list, ride height, motor limit for Mod, handout tyres, 3600 batteries, wing width, wing height, and what motor for stock?

Xpressman
08-02-2004, 06:25 PM
If you want to run 3600 batteries go right ahead.

NTwigs
08-02-2004, 07:33 PM
For Brian and Greg, the entry fee will be $250 for the first and $50 for the second.

For everyone else, it is the same as last year $20 for the 1st and $15 for each additional.

Heck, the way I see it the meal tab alone would pretty much wipe out the first entry fee wouldn't it??? LoL!!!

There's quite a few that will be there. Stewart, Knapp, RLK and Holman that I know of so far. I'm also planning on being there as well. Don't know if I'll be driving anything though!
