Don't get left at home, get your entries in and celebrate 35 years of Indoor Champs history. Oh, and check this shirt out...

Correct we will be using an RC4 decoder system, and ......

Ian Ruggles has graciously volunteered to personally back those up with hand clickers for each racer.

Nearly every MyLaps PT should work just fine with the RC4 decoder. MRT RC3 clones however, will not work. I know there are some 1st gen personals that are extremely early in the number sequence that don't register properly. We have an RC4 decoder here at home, and have only seen 1 such instance.

Yep, I've got MRT RC3's or AMB 3 Wires so I'm covered either way. Just gotta know which to put in my cars. Remind me again why I didn't just buy the new 2 wires?

It's TBT! USIC starts 2 weeks from now.

Here's a pic I found on Facebook (thanks to Bill Jeric). It looks like 1981 U.S. Indoor Champs A-Main.


Drivers from Left to Right: Tom Miller, Bud Bartos, Tyree Phillips, Joel Johnson, Ralph Burch, Steve Koepp, Kent Clausen, Mike Lavacot, Jim Dieter, Arturo Carbonell.

Looks more like a mini-golf tournament than a race with that *green* carpet...LOL...

By the way: I think I've seen *every one* of those guys with the exception of Tyree Phillips and maybe Lavacot run at Lake Whippoorwill
