I love this concept, I myself was thinking a series like this would be fun, although I was thinking more along the lines of 3 different tracks with 3 different surfaces (dirt/carpet/asphalt). This sounds just as fun though, I have never run oval or onroad before. I am not a fan of running on Sundays, but I may have to try this.

Our facility has all three types of tracks, so it is three different tracks with 3 different surfaces (dirt / clay / asphalt). We also have a carpet track, but it's temporarily being used for storage while we stock the hobby shop.

There will most likely be a spec tire as well. We are currently working with the major tire manufacturers on this. Stay tuned!

Is the cash payout after each race or at the end of the series?

Default More Sponsors

Sponsor update.....we received another great sponsor for the Triple Crown
at The Bowl race. Associated has committed to sponsoring the race, and I am
working on several more. If you like RC racing this event is shaping up as one for the record book.
