Throw in Joe Wallace & the Herrera sisters & it would be killer.

I must say, after some mid morning tweaks to the track....it is flat out fun! Races very good. Gonna run this layout till just before the next OSS race and should have some good changes for that round. Already planning it in our pee brains.

That was fun! Flying that big triple with another car 1.35 inches from yours is exceptionally cool!

An exceptional day, to be sure. Thanks much to all who came out and played. Next club race is tentatively Sunday, July 24th.

The track change turned out MUCH better than I expected, really really FUN layout. And some of the changes being discussed sound very exciting!

Santiam Hobbies may try a short series race this year, two dates in August, and two dates in September (both TBA). The top 3 in each class (again, TBA) will have payouts (probably some split of 40-50% of the entry fees). I'm thinking $10/entry. How many people would be interested in this?

No, still on the fence but leaning the other way. But after driving my Xray again against Rich and his 6....the Xray can hold it's own

Hey Dave if you could bring that old red and white one with you next weekend, I would appreciate it. I have a new body, but I'm not really sure when I will get it painted!
