What up Yang! Since we have a smaller track than the Birds it's tough to fit even a shrunken down version of a past layout. We actually have a version of last years Birds layout down now trying some things out, but it's heavily modified to fit. The only thing we do know is we will be running counter clockwise with a back straight since that is the way Snowbird's is always run. Glad to hear you guys have a group coming over. Have you ever seen a solid black groove down the straight before? If not, you will Sunday for this race!! Mad traction...

Good to hear Yang we really look forward to having you guys! Tell Dumas to get his hall pass and come on over and have some fun.

As far as traction Brian is right better put some purples and grays on that 12th scale or you will be traction rolling that baby in the sweeper.

Thought I would check and see what you guys have been using for Traction compound, also what is allowed at the race.

Yep jack works great and without the smell. With our carpet you don't even need sauce!

So who else is coming? Need to know how much to practice!

Fernando are you and Diego running the 417 now? May try the Birds again this year not 100% sure yet, should've done better last year, will if I go back this time. This warm-up race sounds good may try to make it too.

Hey RKeasler, I met you at the birds last year and wished I had done better as well. This will be a great race to come out for even if you can't make it back to the birds. Hope to see you next weekend!
