Default 2008 Canadian Winter Nationals

Is it ever too early for a WinterNats thread? Nope.

I actually got a jump start on my WinterNats shopping about a month ago, so my MT is pretty much ready to go;-) The 2007 event was awesome, and I'm sure I'm not alone when I say that I get butterflies thinking about what 2008 has in store. The ClutchNutz have proven themselves to be world-class hosts for RC events, and I'm sure they are going to pull out all the stops at next years show.

Mark your calendars folks: February 28 until March 2, 2008.

At the time of this post we have 144 days and 31 minutes until the Agricenter once again fills up with nitro fumes

Well, if it isn't Mr. National Champ himself You'll soon be another victim of Otterpops!(if you decide to bring the ol' LST2 with you) lol Just ask Dale Constantine haha You may consider the EconoLodge on Gasoline Alley. It's literally right across the street from the Westerner, and it has a very good comfort/affordability ratio.

I'll only be bringing my truggy and buggy to this race. Too much stuff to bring with 3 classes!

I have another question for those of you that are in charge of this race. My nephew has an elecrtic Losi 8ight that he ran at the CORCS Finals and he was wondering if he would be able to run his car in the 1/8 buggy class at the Winter Nats as well? He would probably be in like the "C" or "D" Main so not really a threat. Just likes to have fun. Let me know what you think. Thanks.
