Minnreg Carpet Racing July 18th/19th

RCThunder · 06-03-2009, 09:41 AM

Hello racers. We have booked the weekend of July 18th and 19th for carpet road and carpet oval racing. Saturday is road - Sunday is oval. We will have practice Friday night for road and Saturday night for oval. Looking at an awesome race weekend indoors in the heat of the summer - rain or shine you are on the line! Road racing will feature touring rubber, 12th, and World GT. Yes we are working on classes for LiPo's in 12th and GT! These classes are growing Nationwide and are bringing back many road racers, as with LiPo and brushless racing is a lot less stress. Oval will feature all the basic's racing now with the COT body debuting in 13.5 1S LiPo.

I will have more information as we get closer - but wanted to get the dates out and official word we are locked into Minnreg next month. Hope to see everyone there for two days of great racing action!

I ran 13.5 last year, I think they also have 17.5 class as well. Ride height is checked before each run to insure that carpet damage does not occur. I want to say 4 or 5 mm is what I remember.

She had to work the day before race (she missed all the practice heats). and bad luck in all the qualifiers. Started dead last in the G-main. and finished dead last when her battery got knocked out. But she had a great time and got to hang out with some old friends. She is going to purchase a new car and start racing again in California soon.

Is the Minnreg track open on weekends for practice?

RCThunder · 06-14-2009, 07:25 AM

Sorry Minnreg is only open racedays. It is a temporary track in an assembly hall that is used for other things when we don't race...
