Boom/Scoot:

Any ideas on a time the ballroom will be opened on Tuesday, Sept 25th to put our gear inside?

My wife and I are going out to dinner and a show that night, and this would help in planning what time to make dinner reservations.

Thanks!

That gives me another idea for R/C Men of Genius.

Today we salute you, Mr. Excessively Organized Pit Area Guy....

Ahhh...Monsieur Gustav better have plenty of plastic Eiffel towers on hand this time!

We'll always have Paris.

It is supposed to open sometime Tuesday for setup of pits but that from what I understand will be determined if everything else is done first.

Right this second I can't tell you. We will be releasing a more in depth schedule in the time leading up to the race. We will be opening in the late afternoon/early evening. That's my story and I am sticking to it..... for now

Sorry

Thank heaven for google
So that must be why sunsets are reddish orange... becasue the light is passing thru more of the atmosphere scattering out even more of the blue... the things you learn on an r/c forum eh?
