Default 6th annual spud run

I am helping get the word out for the 6th annual spud run for Hobby Hut, as most of you know that they are moving and have been busy getting things ready for that, it will be held on August 27 2016

This will be held at the same place, the church parking lot near the river, this year will be more of a obstacle type coarse, with spud pit at the end of the run, this is in hopes of others getting more track time for their entry fee, as well as getting the times above 2 seconds thru this 23 feet of mashed potatoes, so I believe the start time is 12:00, but I would hope that Hobby Hut will post more details if not then I will do my best to get the info out, also water will be available at the track like in the past events, and hopefully they will have a tent and tables for people to pit under

see you all in Barnesville for their potato days

Thanks Troubles Dad for posting!

Hobby Hut has been busy getting ready to move to Fargo with hopes that our move will be complete by Sep. 1st!

We're excited for the 6th Annual Spud Run!
There was in increase in fees for us to be there this year, so there has been a small increase in entry Fees.
$10 for your first vehicle, and $5 for each additional vehicle. If you register at the store before the event, we will discount the entry price to $7 for your first vehicle, and $4 for each additional vehicle.

We will be making a track with some jumps and obstacles this year that drivers will tackle through and attempt the Spud Pit at the very end! This should be far more exciting and challenging.

We will be out there by if not sooner than 11:00 AM Saturday the 27th. Racing starts at 12:00PM

any questions you may contact Bryan at hobby hut 218-233-5590 or ask here on the Forum!

I have the spud pit loaded, and water pump ready as well, now if the CA will only dry on my tires it would be awesome

For those that missed this exciting event, you really missed a great showing over 30 plus entries to tackle the obstacles and the spud pit, lots of people in attendance and in the next few days their should be some results and maybe some pics and some video

Congrats to all those that attempted the spud run, as I can claim the fast single pass of the day, just over 17 seconds with the winner getting 22 seconds, my pass was with my twin 28 nitro monster truck, hopefully some one can post some pics and video of that

Thank you Hobby Hut and all of the people that it takes to put this kind of event on 👍

Thanks troubles dad for posting! This was an amazing turnout!
As many people know, hobby hut has moved to Fargo ND starting the day after the event. We are still fine tuning the new store, and once we're done I'll get the results posted.

I have some video posted on our Facebook page for now.

The 2017 7th annual RC Spud Run is in the works.
Date is set for Saturday August 26th at 12pm.

A new thread will be made with all the details, but they are mostly the same as last year.
