Over 40 entries again last night; Stock buggy filled out down to a C-main and yet still done before 10pm.
Sounds like racing this Saturday should be one of the bigger Saturday RCP turnouts as well - doors at 9am, racing at 11, 3 heats and a main.

Last Saturday race of the "winter" season will be this Saturday, May 6th. Doors at 9, race at 11 and they will give out the prizes for the second series then.

Racing will continue all summer long on Tuesday nights at 6:30pm.

Starting Friday, June 23rd and continuing every other Friday after that (i.e. the weeks there is no OffRoad at Dave's) RCPlus will be having Friday night racing!
Racing will start at 7pm with sign-ups closing at 6:30. 2 heats and a main. Erik will be running the shop and Atalo will be doing most of the RD'ing. Call the shop if you'll be running late and they can take your entry over the phone.

Answers to a couple questions I got on the new Friday night racing program. Yes, racing will still be only $7.50 per class - best bargain in RC! Yes, all classes will run; 3 make a class.

8 heats/7 mains last night - Thank you to everyone who has kept the Turf Tuesday race program going strong into the summer.

Reminder, Friday Night racing starts this Friday, info above.

New news; next Tuesday will be Lyle Altig's birthday race and his mom will be providing free pizza for everyone racing!

Hey guys, 2 questions.

We've had an ST truck class every raceday I'm aware of for at least the last six months. Have only had enough for a separate SC one about once in that same period though. ST is technically a 13.5 class but it actually runs as a mix of those and 17.5 trucks.

For results, go to the track's archive page on LRC here: RCPlus :: Archived Results :: LiveRC

From there, if you click a specific race and scroll down, it even archives the video now. Example, stadium truck main from a couple Tuesday's ago: RCPlus :: Lyle's Bday Pizza Party - Turf Tuesday :: Stadium Truck A-Main :: LiveRC

I'll answer the question you haven't asked yet...
Any of the Schumacher ST tires in yellow compound on open-cell inserts work. It's just a matter of mixing/matching them to find the balance you want. Some people have even taken to running the stagger rib fronts as a rear tire in that class. They usually have a good stock of st tires on the wall there as well.

Hahaha. I thought about asking, but figured they might have some.

10 heats/9 mains last night - in July! Thanks to everyone for their patience as we worked through running a 12-car Novice class that had 8 of those racers doing so for their first time ever.

With the extreme heat forecast for tomorrow and the rest of the week, the decision has been made to cancel tomorrow night's (8/1) races instead of baking everyone. Keep an eye on RCP's fb page for news about Friday's race this week as the week develops as I'll be away later in the week and may not be able to post that news here.
