No problem, I was just wondering. Thanks though.

Prices for tires would be nice as well.

Mike, I looked at the birds website and didn't see:
When are the F1 qual/race going to run? And when is the concourse?

Mike, I bought 2 KD's for the FCC that I didn't get to attend to last weekend. Is there an issue with me using those to PRACTICE in the 19T Road class i'm signed up for?? I don't want to get to the tech table mon/tue/wednesday only to find out i gotta walk back up to my room.

Clean up your GT and edm body. We need to do some dirt soon.

We will have 19s there yes.. that is fine.

Working on some updates today. Tons of entries flying in. Will have class totals with openings today I hope. Getting close to the race and getting full.
Imagine if he won with a 13.5 with class full of 10.5. The saying Slower is faster would really be understood

Not worried if you run your handout motors / handout tires for practice (just have to be same type motor - rubber tires is all).

Got some news update!

CRC CLIK-TRAK for BIRDS!!!
FASTCATS PRACTICE TIMER FOR BIRDS!!!
HOTEL ROOM BLOCK DATE EXTENDED!!!
more.....

Hope to have entries up tonight or tommorrow. Just got in Atsushi Hara's and Andy Moore's (both also in the running of the Snowbird Cup Champion). Time to ROCK N' ROLL!

Check out the video from our friend from Italy Francesco Martini on YouTube of last year's Mod main. It is on the front page of the Snowbirds. Awesome. All the news from today and more is on-line on our news section.

omg the editing time it would take.. unless there's some special software to synch it up and pick what you want to see when!

and to make it absolutely clear, they are non-handout motors, but same type as far as I am aware.

Going to work on a second stream for this year's race that is just audio. Many new phones and pdas can open streaming audio and have media players in them now. This way you can take the 'birds with you. The link is here:

Open that in your phone you should hear some music now....

Thanks for making us 'STICKY'
