Even though I was not at this race I can tell you that I have been at this track many times and from what I understand... They had a real good turn out last Friday (08-06-04). You will never find a better group of people racing R/C and some of the fastest R/C vehicles I have ever seen has been at this track. The rules are simple... "NO WHINING!). In addition... The track director "Frenchie" will bend over backwords to make sure that your car is running top notch.

Where's Parchment? I was up in MI a week ago and couldn't find a track to save my life.

Parchment is just north of Kalamazoo, Mi.
It is so close to Kalamazoo it could be a suburb of.

Hello Butch,

I am glad to see you are starting some oval track racing in Kalamazoo. Are you thinking about starting some carpet racing?

What classes are you trying to grow? Stock truck, Legends, Bolink Sprinters, Pan cars (4 cell stock, 19 turn, spec, etc)

Do you have electric available? Do we need to bring tables and chairs?

Are you planning to hold the races on Saturday or Friday? How often do plan on holding races? How long do you plan to hold races this year?

I live up by Mt. Pleasant, but I have family near Kalamazoo.

Thanks

Don D

DJD43,
We will run what ever you bring, just getting started so if you bring it you will run. Classes so far have been nitro touring,electric touring, gas and electric trucks, monster trucks, and our spec class which is the Duratrax Delphi indy type cars.
We have power. You will need a table and chair.
WE run on Sat. At this time we do not have an inside location.

Hey Butch, no reason for "sorry". Hard top and carpet is for grip and fast racin; and dirt is for gardens or whatever. Hope is all going well with you this summer.

Butch

Tom,
I don't have any pictures, it is an asphalt oval,130ft. run line. It is smoother than what you have been running. Foam tires seem to hook up the best. If you come we make room for any type vehicle to race.
