Pro Series races are a blast. You have a program that is ran very professionally. Race Venues put in a lot of effort to have a great track. Its not hectic like a club race because there are so many entries. Give you a lot more time to watch faster guys, hang out with friends and enjoy the day.

Looking forward to meeting all you new Kansas guys!

Track pics dont do justice. Trust me, its BIG. Everyone will have a great time.

Some thing will be the same, because the water run off is so great here. The entire infield section will be completely different, with a lot of twists and turns. The track runs clockwise.

track re-build will begin this weekend. time to get those entries in if you haven't already. we will get some layout pics posted as soon as it is completed. going to be a great time. if weather concerns you, don't let it. we just had our first club race of the season and got nearly 3 inches of rain tues.-thurs. and had to water the track on friday to pack it in. our track dries extremely fast and snow is the only thing that keeps us from racing!!lol
see everyone in a few weeks!!

I'm hoping my boss can confirm those days off for me. But two other co-workers already have vacation scheduled this weekend. The boss is gonna schedule people other areas so I can get those days off. He's awesome. So as long as he doesn't get in trouble I can make this race.

Well we worked long and hard all weekend. Track is coming along nice. Added some twists and turns,new jumps. 4 loads of yellow clay. Track is going to be choice.

We still have a few weeks of prepping, tilling and packing and it will be good to go.

I will post pics once its all done.

See everyone soon!

I like Calibers, Crossbows, double dees, and cityblocks.

The track is going to be blue groove by mid day Friday. I basically run the same tires that I would in P Hill.

Minus the slicks that I made for this year's race.

Its coming fast and the weather looks to be great!

You can fill out the sign up flyer and just mail it in. Or sign up at the race on Friday.


See you in 2 weeks

Tony

Dang I wish my boss could let me out of work for this race. Too many co-workers with seniority already taking this weekend off. I am saddened.

Tony do you have any plans to make the Futaba challenge in July? That looks like my next race. LOL

Dave you may hit up Brian Stiffler, he was asking us if he could tag along but we're pretty full up already....

What's the pit situation like at this track? Do we need our own power, tables, shade, etc???

Under the Drivers stand is a bunch of benches for people to start up their cars in preperation for the next race. There is also a monitor down there for pitmen to watch time and the race via RC Scoring Pro.

Tons of electrical outlets, and RV Hookups. Bring your tables, chairs, drop cords and Pop-ups.

I believe we should have a big ole generator powered Aircompressor so yall can blow your cars off if you want.

Weather is looking great for next weekend.

I will post pics early next week!
