Doors open? Cool!
I thought that was forbidden cause of the neighbors? Has contact or a negotiation been made? What ever happened to the fan idea?

Red Frog Club founders are having a meeting this week end to iron out all(if we don't forget any) details. Any suggestions on topics please speak up here, i.e. track designs,wants,dislikes, etc.
Thanks ~Greg

With both of the doors open the place keeps clear of smoke. Ahh nice air to breathe.

OK guys so exactly how much dirt did you get? Is it inside? Do you have a tractor,backhoe,skidstear to move it around with yet?Any Ideas for track layouts yet? Who is gona be running the races?

Here are a few Links I have to some killer Track designs, we took a few Ideas from this and helped us out.

be sure and dont do anything too extreme, chalenging fun, pretty fast but keep the jumps makeable. A nice tripple that 1/8 and Truggys can clear but set up for Monsters to double and single easy, things like that. We have also found have to lines in and out of corners works great, guys call hall intoit high and come out wide, or slow inside and tight out.... Things ta think about. Eleveation changes are good but do take more dirt.

All the links I could find right now, but a nice start

Great to hear that things are coming along at Red Frog. I would suggest putting a loading and unloading only sign in the driveway by the doors so that folks don' have to cart their stuff too far.

If more people show up, you will need to clear some more area for more parking or at least organized/marked parking.

Remember there are three possibilities for transponder system loans/leases: RC Supercross, 2 Brothers, and C&C.

Also, RC Supercross charges something like $35 for a yearly memebership fee and then you only pay half for race fees. Red Frog may want to adopt this idea, but since there are many more race days increase the fee to something like $50.

Hey thanks everyone for ideas. I think the effort put forth by the people starting this club is great, it can only get better.

CMiller

Hey thanks for the great ideas Mike! I will let the others know at our next meeting. I agree that we will need a bit more parking area. And yes you nailed the ideas we were throwing around for membership fees. Nothing set in stone yet but definatley along the lines of what you said.

Keep the good ideas and suggestions comin!

Can we get a tally of electric guys wanting to race @ RF? We know there is a nitro following but would like to cater to elec. also.

Yes we are beginning to work on the track. Berndt single handedly removed all the old pvc pipe today put it all outback out of site. He also watered down the track for tomorrow. The track will be open tomorrow with no pipe and no jumps but you can still make out lanes. It' a lot of work for one and a half guys so hoping others will pitch in. Next week will be a good time as the dirt will probably be moved in monday. Thanks in advance for the cooperation see you soon . Looking for a better future at RED FROG RACE TRACK. Getting faster all the time. PHIL.

Yeah, Phil is right, we could need all the help we can get to clean this place up and make it nice for everyone, its not easy for 2 people to do everything that needs to be done. And as Phil also said, all the pipe and rebar ( spelling ? ) was taken out today, we also cleaned up the area by the fan, so its ready for the tractor to come in and do its whonders

We still have tons of stuff to do, like clean up outside the building, clean up and organize inside the building, make more pit tables, we need more electrical outlets by the pit tables, lower the light fixtures over the pit tables, more paint for the pit tables and offcourse material to build them ! so if anyone have or can get more plywood and 2x6x12;s get it out there.

We need to weed and clean up the parking area, fill in potholes in the parking area and on and on, so anyone that feel like helping out are more than welcome to do so, the more people that help out, the faster it gets done, lets all pitch in and make this place really nice for everyone.

We would love to see more electric out at the track, make one day in the week just for electric, if there is enough people that will show up that is.

anyone feel like going out to the track sunday to work. I wont be able to make it out tomorrow, the girl has me stuck helping with a garage sale, but I could go out sunday for a bit. Or maybe just list things that need to be done and we can all go chip in when we can.

-Ryan

edit: sorry Berndt didnt read your whole post with that list already in it.
