N2RACN 09-02-2004, 07:41 PM sounds good to me maximus, only being 25 minutes from home cant miss the test run. see you soon jeremy Anchor2 09-02-2004, 08:00 PM jeremy, are you going over on Sunday for some practice? Jim :thumbsup: dancingd 09-02-2004, 11:00 PM I will be there :thumbsup: highroller 09-03-2004, 05:21 AM Hi everyone, I plan on making it to practice there on Sunday. I guess the decission to be a ROAR track is a cost saving method and I have personal reasons for not renewing my membership after being a member for 12 years, but I'll give it a try. So I'll see you guys Sunday, and see how things go from there. bojo 09-03-2004, 06:17 AM You need to be ROAR to run sunday.you can sigh up at hobbie store bojo 09-03-2004, 06:22 AM can I run mod sept 11 in stock class so I can beat some one in stock:freak: dancingd 09-03-2004, 09:51 AM Highroller,glad to see you will be making the trip to the track..See you when you get there.Will be there about 11:00am..Bring extra money chinese restaurant in the same mall.. N2RACN 09-03-2004, 04:26 PM hey anchor, i wont be there this weekend have family things to do. but will be there all next weekend.saturday and sunday hopefully. see you next weekend. jeremy Dan 09-03-2004, 04:56 PM Bojo, That's not fair, it's not about not wanting to support the track or the 25.00 ROAR membership fee, it's about being forced to join an organization in order to race at a particular track. Bob T It's not too different than real racing. If Lee USA has a big race, and I race at a non-NASCAR track, I can't race the big race at Lee, unless I get a NASCAR license.. SO..... what do you do... Leave all of your expensive race stuff home, or bite the bullit and spend a couple of bucks and race? Joining an organization doesn't mean you endorse it, it only means you joined. You don't have to promote them, you don't have to like them, you don't have to do anything... A lot of tracks are going that route, because liability insurance is so ridiculous today. If tracks carried their own decent insurance, they'd have to charge 20 bucks a week to race. Nobody wants that. ROAR for this application, is merely a 'group' policy. If you're racing at a track or own one that does not have insurance, then you're foolish. If Screamin' Banshee Ultra Super Dooper R/C parts came out with a 15 cent part that they charged 20 bucks for, but everyone swore by it, you'd buy one in a minute... I just look at it as 'an expense'. I don't like it either, but the alternatives are worse. THE BAT 09-03-2004, 05:18 PM Highroller,glad to see you will be making the trip to the track..See you when you get there.Will be there about 11:00am..Bring extra money chinese restaurant in the same mall.. Did someone say eggrolls ? :) :wave: Tommygun43 09-03-2004, 06:12 PM What's with the 35 racer max.? dancingd 09-03-2004, 06:23 PM And I know that eggrolls are your favoite...:) Have a good vacation. I'm on mine now till next Wedesday.. Anchor2 09-03-2004, 07:00 PM Hi Dan, Long time no see, how have you been? Are you going to make a trip down to maximus for some racing? You will like the track, I'm sure your car is set up for the track. See you later. Jim :thumbsup: Dan 09-03-2004, 07:50 PM Hi Dan, Long time no see, how have you been? Are you going to make a trip down to maximus for some racing? You will like the track, I'm sure your car is set up for the track. See you later. Jim :thumbsup: Jim, I've been to the track, I think it's beautiful. Could use some more speed, but what else is new? I'm going to try to make it this Sunday for some more practicing, and experimenting... Please forgive me, but I'm not sure which "Jim" you are!! I haven't been reading HT that long, so I really don't know many screen names.. I met "Bud" last week, and Jeremy. Give me a hint... (OR your name! I have a good idea though :confused: ) Anchor2 09-03-2004, 08:06 PM This is Jim S. missed you at TC's this summer! Now do you know who it is, if not I'll see you on Sunday. Jim :thumbsup: dancingd 09-03-2004, 08:30 PM Jim, Just finished changing things over...:thumbsup: MobileMikeV 09-03-2004, 10:58 PM Whats up with the 35 racer limit? Mike Voccola highroller 09-04-2004, 04:46 AM Hey dancingd, yeah things are slowly getting back to normal (somewhat). I rode by after getting off from work - hardly no traffic at 7am. But I like the Super Buffet, all you can eat and a little of everything including some Italian dishes. Yeah I guess I will join ROAR but I see the dues are $30 a year and that was the cost the last time I renewed. Is this a cost saving by joining through the track? bud3738 09-04-2004, 08:04 AM Mobile mIKE...the pit area isnt as big as Swansea....It could probably pit 40 guys but 35 would be comfortable......Unless 20 show up with as much crap as you..you and nick going...Im already Signed up Anchor2 09-04-2004, 08:33 AM Highroller, Glad to hear things are starting to get back to normal, I'm sure it has been a tough time. Were you able to see the track, when you stopped by? I'll see you there tomorrow. Jim dancingd 09-04-2004, 09:08 AM Mobilemike,if you left most of the stuff you don't use,you will have plenty of pit space..:tongue: Maximus Raceway 09-04-2004, 11:11 AM Hey dancingd, yeah things are slowly getting back to normal (somewhat).

If you are an existing ROAR member then it will cost you $30 to renew. If you are a new member you can sign up at Maximus for $25. Maximus Maximus Raceway 09-04-2004, 11:56 AM Whats up with the 35 racer limit? Mike Voccola Hello Mike, We have spoken on the phone a few times. To answer your question as to the 35 racer limit. Being our first big race we wanted to make sure there is plenty of pit space. We do feel confident that would could accommodate 45+ racers, but we would rather see how things go with 35 at this point in time. Look forward to meeting you in person.
