Sweet. I'm thinking because iv heard it's loamy that crime fighters or bowfighters will be the hot ticket in truggy but buggy I'm not sure of yet, I really like crime fighters mite just stick with that. Also heard it's going to be really tame so a softer set up will work I hope unless I get there and it's a sx track for Rc lol, anyways anyone no anything about the track that's forsure?

Bring some extra tanks Jeff.

For sure there is going to be an over under jump (gap jump where traffic is flowing)
The track owner was talking about a step up too.

While the track is fresh then the big pin tires are going to work better than the small pin tire. Track owner said it will get hard packed by the end of the day on sunday so people who like small pin tires will run those.

I run big pin tires no matter what.

Jeff if you go saturday if you could bring a generator that would be great. Just in case the track owner hasn't been able to get a hold of some.

There will be generators available on sunday.

Ok thanks for the info it sounds like the track won't be like the baja track but now some bigger jumps.
