Thats correct Mike. The track is in a huge horse arena building and pitting is just behind that building in a seperate heated building almost just as big. No pop-up tents are needed. Just tables and chairs. Bring as many tables and chairs as you personally need. No shortage of space.

This'll be my first time out there. Are there outlets for chargers etc or do we need to bring extension cords.. or our own power supplies?

If you mean power supply - Generator, no, you dont need it. The building has outlets all along the walls, but you may need extension cords to make it to the outlet.

For the Mapston this year we are going to use a new format to try to give people in the lower main more run time. Basically what is going is 10 people will automatically go in to each main except the A main which 8 people automatically go in. Then 1st and 2nd from each main bump like normal to the next main. Then 3rd, 4th, 5th from each main will go to the last chance main that will take place directly after the B mains. The starting order in the last chance main will be in reverse order where the lower main driver start higher up on the grid.
This will only be done in classes that have enough mains to make it work. Probably just buggy and truggy. Also the number of drivers that go to the last chance main can change depending on the number of mains.
Below is an example of how this will play out. Hope this makes sensce

Hello again.
Yes, the strike is acceptable. Bring it!!
The class is stock 2 wheel drive corr, which includes the slash, strike, sc10, and blitz style trucks.
- Stock motor/motor that came with the car
- 6 cell battery or lipo equivalent.
- Any esc/receiver/servo
- Stock tires that came with the car
- no weight requirement
I hope this helps.

Gotta allow Brand interchanging, as long as it's a stock CORR tire?

i dont run a Short Course truck but my opinion is that people should be able to run whaterver tire that they want as long as it resembles a real tread design. for example i dont think that the JC goosebumps resemble a real tread and goes away from the "real" look.
just my 2 cents.
just my 2 cents.
