The first race of the season, May 28 - 29, is also the Fireball Classic.

The track will be open for practice on Friday, the 27th.

As we have done in the past with the Fireball race, we will have 10 minute qualifiers and 60 min A Mains.

Electric Seadn class will run Triple A Main.

Because this is double what we run with the HOA, this race will be scored as two HOA races. This will give us a 6 race season.

Because this is being scored as two events and is also the Fireball, the entry fee is $25.

Saturday evening, after qualifying, we are going to hold a special race.

After qualifying, we will have dinner at the track. Then at 7pm there will be a 60 minute race for the IGT cars. Each team will need a minimun of three people. Driver, pit man, marshal. It is up to each team to decide how that will work. One person could drive the whole race or you could switch drivers but, you must have a marshal on the track at all times.

This special race will have a $20 entry fee. Winning team takes ALL.

Hi Z,

Will the pitting be in the same spot as the Nats last year? Also, what time will the track be ready on Friday?

As far as sign-ups, just do so on the HOA site and pay at the track?

Thanks.

You can pit on the gravel next to the drivers stand, on the grass on the east end of the track, or in the parking lot. There is no big tent like at the nats. Bring your own table, chair, tent, ect.

Sign up at the track or on the website. Its up to you. The website sign up is completly new to us.

Yes, the web sign-up is new and it should be working. There isn't anyway to pay so it is just a sign-up sheet that should send an e-mail with your information. Please try it and I would like some feedback.


Thanks

Mark Z.

Would it be possible to add an addition to the motor list-
http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXZNS3&P=ML


I have been having trouble with the Axial motor staying tuned after the
5 min mark, temp goes from 250 to 320 in that time.

You would have to go through the proper process.

You would need to submit 3 of these motors to .......me.

One to disect and see if I can reassemble it.....probably not.
Second one for me to race with and beat you.
Third one would be to replace the second one with after I blow it up.

If it passes those tests, I would probably say no. Just because you want it!!!

I can forward your request to the approval committee if you like.
