12th scale what turn motors is the class running? Im planning on being there this sat. Hopefully, crossing fingers, I also have never run on road so it should be interesting. Also tire compounds and gear ratio, any help?

We have 13.5 and 17.5 classes for 1/12 and using Jack the gripper and sweep compounds.

Gear ratio is depends on the motor and how your drive.

Thanks.

Sponsor prizes for Grand Opening Race arrived from Tamiya and Integy.

Thanks Tamiya and Integy for supporting local tracks.

It's helping me a lot for preparing the TQ Grand Opening race.

Thanks again.

And I changed the Hairpin corners and some corners with frequent crashes.

It looks ugry, but It will reduce the crashes.

I hope nobody break the car at my track .









And here is my TRUSPEC Car ^^

Don't forget The TRUSPEC Series and ABC Mini Grand-Prix at TQ RC RACING this Saturday !!

Went to TQ today and brought the new Cyclone setup with Tekin and 21.5 motor. Set up the Tekin and the car was ballistic ---ran the new Sweep 36 tires and the car was HOOKED UP with stock silver springs.
BUT---could NOT get the Truespec car working with the tires we run. Carpet kept accumulating on them--car would start out handling fine--then the rear would get looser until it was impossible to drive. Could not get it to work.
Got all the F-1 cars working well--F-104 on foam--and F103 on the new Ride rubber tires. Unfortunately---it looked like the race was going to start late--and I had to go. I'll be back for your grand opening!!!

The track is AWSOME!! Very smooth and fast---and I LIKE the new corners you've put in ---they work very cool--- you can touch them--and keep on moving!! Come on out and race---you'll love the place!!!!
T

You're right Charles---I forgot to mention the pit tables are TOPS--and nice office chairs everywhere to sit. Lighting is great--plenty of power outlets on all tables---A FIRST CLASS OPERATION!!!!

First time today... like everyone says... bright, smooth surface, track is easy on the cars... pit tables are comfortable... place has a good vibe... wish it wasn't so far from my house I will still make it out every so often...

looking forward to grand opening next Saturday... It will be the first race of the UF1 series... speaking of F1... I ran my rubber car with no sauce and it hooked up great... I'm sure the foams will be on rails...

Your right Tim... everyone had trouble with the TRU Spec tires on the carpet... go off the line ONCE and your car is on ice for the rest of the race...
