Also these engines are legal....
5. We will add a couple of low cost engines to the list for GT, the reason is simple, some people like to have a choice and sometimes the supply can be a problem so if we add a couple others, this should help this. They are:

OS Engines .21VG pull-start Cost is around $169.99
Sportwerks .26 V2 pull-start Cost is around $129.99
Dynamite Mach .26 pull-start Cost is around $129.99

Is the surface sealed or raw or what?

RAW about 1 meter of elevation change... treated with VHT and we blow it twice....

No complaints on the racing surface... I have been to Memphis to both places, elec and Nitro, and your track... the surface is between your track and Memphis elec. track.... 2 years ago it was a smooth as your track...

Sounds cool!

Would love to see your group come down... and I will have news on Wednesday about hotels.... but I can not tell everyone at this point...

Folks we have a discount deal worked out with one of the hotels by Bass Pro, but that Managers needs until Wednesday to get the staff up to speed...

So I will post on Wednesday about it...

We are willing to add a Mod Elec. Class if we get some entries... just let me know if you are interested.

Please get the word out, because I would need to get awards done.... and this takes a few weeks...

I am gonna try to make it there and if I can work it out I will be bringing a few others also.

Is pre-registration required?

Nope, but prefered... if you do not make it, it is very simple to remove you.... A lot quicker then adding....

After this weekend i remembered why I love coming to Jackson. Quinton, you should def. make it to the Big Chill. Traction is plenty and the elevation change is barely noticeable... Oh, and long a$$ straight. I know Toastie and I are coming to lay down some rubber.

Barry, im down for a mod class but im pretty sure you could get more interested in a 10.5 class. Although, 13.5 was pretty fun as well this weekend.

I'm open to running what ever class you guys want....

Barry,

You forget to list this rule change with the IGT class:

Man, if I wasn't already running three classes, I would be down for some Mod sedan. Got Chris, er, Toastie's old Xray 007 and a brushless something.5 motor ready but I think that I am already taxing myself trying to maintain three cars, but we will see.
