Default Mushroombowl Speedway - Kennett Square, PA

I wanted to start a thread for the Mushroombowl Speedway, located in beautiful Kennett Square, PA. The Mushroombowl is one of the oldest RC facilities in PA, and one of the best permanent asphalt tracks in ROAR Region 2.

We will be opening up the asphalt track for racing 5/13/6. The track has been resurfaced for this year, so traction will not be a issue.

Racing begins at 5PM under the lights. We will race three rounds of qualifying, and 5 minute mains for all classes:

Stock Touring - ROAR legal stock motors, rubber tires
19T Touring - any locked timing 19T, rubber tires
Nitro Touring - any roar legal .12, open tires
Mod Touring - bring what you got

Minimum of four entries per class.

Oval racers are always welcome as well. The road course will be easily moved to allow for oval races / practice during race day. We plan on running practice in 1/2 hour intervals for road course and oval.

Racing is $12 per class.

The Mushroombowl has two separate pit areas (50+ spaces) with benches, chairs, and AC power; well stocked hobby shop, and a great group of local racers.

Please post any questions here, and we hope to see some new faces this season.

I will be there for sure, and the one and only

MIKE MAJOR

will also be there. Mandio and Alderson will be there, Scooby and Little B are planning on coming, and Larry might also make the trip down this week.

19T is the class to race. The new layout is very fast.
