If anybody needs to run their car on a carpet track on Mon & Tue while waiting for the Nats race which starts on Wed can run at RC PLUS in Salem. The hobby shop & track is only an hour south of Portland. Monday will be for onroad cars ONLY on the track all day. On Tue night we have racing that starts at 6:30pm with 2 quals & single main. We also have a full hobby shop with parts. The normal shop hours on Monday are 11am-6pm but if people are running on the track the shop will stay open till 8pm.

They are 24"x36"

As far as the green room, yes it is astro turf, however the green room has the best lighting in the building.

Entries on the ROAR site just hit 190 and they don't yet include Team Xray/RC America, CRC, Novak, or Tekin.

12 days and counting.

Morning Guys: the standard pit are 24"x36", maybe a couple @ 32" but.......
In order to get the room we need in the green room you guys will have to live with 18" x 32" but it will also have a shelf above.... had to make them a bit skinny to get the circulation we need....

Little more room than Vegas not as tight at the pits at the Clevland Carpet Nat's a few years ago....

should hit 200, by the end of the weekend

Is there any way to change a registered class. I want to change from 1/12 17.5 Non Boost to 1/12 13.5 Open ESC. Or can this be done at the track.
