Anyone have any additional info? Thanks!

It is your fault Chris!!

Lightbulb Got to go nitro

Time to build that nitro I guess , Or commit suicide (joking).. I really think it is pitiful there is not one hobby shop like S&N's Trackside in this city... Pathetic! I stand by my comments.
Now, I have to buy a TRF801XT

Hey don't give up yet guys i talked to hobbytown today and they aren't done yet. but there is no races in july bcus of people being off an takeing vaca. I told scott the race dir in would even help him count cars an I gave him a couple ideas on how to make thing work alil better with hand counting. So i'm tryin to work with them to get somthing going. They are lookin at getin new pipin for the track so that is a plus. An if anyone knows about a used transponder system please let them give them a call with the info evey lil bit will help. But there are no races in july hopfully eary aug. thats wht have heard with my own ears. So don't lose hope.

Angry HOBBYTOWN RACING IS ON!

I just heard that Hobbytown will be racing Friday, August 8! So everybody who has been talking about coming out to race, better come. The timing loop has been repaired, They have new boards to setup the track. So get your cars ready. NO EXCUSES!! I'll be there.

Default Robitronic Lap Counter System

Hey Guys,

Have you considered the Robitronic Lap Counting System? It's a good alternative to the AMB systems. Much better than hand counting cars. Have the ower of Hobbytown contact me and I can work out a discount.

http://www.speedtechrc.com/store/ebp...?catmainid=675

Also, www.roaddome.com has some cool parking lot rails at good prices. We use them for our local parking lot tracks and they work great.

Have fun racing.

Cheers,
Jeff
