The dates for this event are now set. The track size have been given. The rules for all the classes offered are almost set. Now, all that is needed are the racers that will be attending. Let's do this!!!

Felix has the F104W GP not an F103

Tim,

Not everyone goes to the IIC race. Upon checking, this race put out its dates before the IIC thread was even started with the dates for their race. Sometimes it is hard to not step on toes when no one in the race organizing community communicates. Plus, some may not be able to take an entire week off to run the IIC (vacation time at my job is very limited) like some others can.

Here is a short video of an Oval race, as you can see Jeff has a large indoor pit space as well as indoor hobby store, indoor dirt off-road and indoor carpet oval track.
