Hey Paul since theres a spec tire are there going to be weigh ins before each heat also to keep the cars close to each other. I think ROAR is 1525 grams.

Joe, I think that's a great idea and I have a scale that I would be willing to let the C use and from what we experienced from our wieghts to the scale at Jackson any 1/10th scale should weigh 3lbs 5oz. on my scale. For anyone not familiar the weigh in is with the car fully ready to go.

Good Idea Joe. It is a big race. All big races tech weight. I'm leaving the weight on my car till after the Sedan Challenge. The Glenn Burnie Charity race is teching weight.

We want everyone to use the premounts, that is a lot easier.

New Layout being setup tommorow 7/6 at 5pm. All those who want to get practice in before the race should come and help put some rubber down on the track. I'll be there to help with the change. Hopefully it will still be fast.

Well it looks like we have some more sponsors on board , Prizes now to be given out from Corally , RC America , Hudy , X-Ray , VOODOO Racing Cells , Great Planes , TAMIYA and maybe a few more ................I hope to see everyone at this one , last year we had 98 racers and I would like to see more this year.
Paul.......................

As far as the weight thing , I just want to see as even a playing field as possible , there are some really light weight cars on the market today.
