The track is officially ready for CORCS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just some painting to be finished and some minor repairs to pit lane leftover.
We are definitely racing next Sunday!!!!!
After that we can fine tune the track surface for the big race.

Yes the Platinum was a limited edition run only.

I want to thank everyone for busting thier (__)__)'s today at the track and we have a drivers stand now. Just a little bit of painting and its good to go. Now we can concentrate on getting all the finer points dealt with.

We WILL be racing next Sunday.. practice can start at 9:30 for those who want more registration will be approx 10:00 and we should start racing by 10:30. I think this may be the only way to get the racing done in a good amount of time so everyone can get home early enough. We will post more on this throughout the week.

Jason.

Whats shakin' honkies
Been a while, I figured I better pop in and say oy. My break from rc racing continues, probably wont see me on a track till 09 but I will get back into it. I still have ALL my machines and stuff just waiting to win some trophy's.
I took a transfer to the strip mine after last summers accident, and have been working hard to train up there... been running dozer most of the time lately. Things are good, just patiently waiting for the $$ to improve, I took about an $11/hour pay cut for this transfer, so it's tight.
Here's what I have been doing this year instead of rc racing

Well I feel ready to go out and have fun again. The tracks ready, My Diffs and Shocks are rebuilt. My clutch is modified. Just need to pick up some new clutch bearings tomorrow. Glad I found out now that the ones i was keeping for spares are the wrong size.

Good chance I'll be out there Rodrigo. I just have to charge up some batteries. Found my clutch bearings. Had them mixed up with my T4 front wheel bearings..

At least they weren't in my pocket.............................
