K_Spec_RC...For now it is current but there are plans to re-surface and it will depend on whether or not it can be done before the event.

Thumbs up

This is great news! I hope my schedule will allow me to make it. It's also great to see that Fernando is helping out at Prime Time. That alone should give Tommy and Vicky a huge boost. Although it probably means I will continue to get smoked by a certain 8 year old. I for one hope this permanent facility really takes off this summer so we can show up, sign up, race, and go home without having to deal with polls, elections, meetings, finding locations, track set up and tear down, etc., etc.

Glad to hear that asphalt racing will get going pretty soon at PT. It's also good to hear that re-surfacing is something that is in the works.

I'm going to try to come out on the 27th for practice. Something we might want to work on is expanding the drivers stand to better suit 10 drivers.

Good to see Fernando helping PT with some big races. Glad to see you running again.

I am considering getting a touring car to run some. I know the car I want I will probably get another 13.5 on the used market to keep cost down. Oh, I also have to find somewhere that has or can get the car I want. Its kinda rare...

No, No. No Cyclone. I have a Kyosho buggy. Thinking about the shaft drive Kyosho TF-5 since it shares many drivetrain parts with my buggy. Pretty much everything but the shocks, towers, and arms are shared between the 2 cars.

I think this is huge news for prime time. And those of us that run there. Fernando gets to support racing without bearing the full brunt of a track and shop. Definitely a good move.
