The plan is to open by 10am race at 1pm.


The issue I have right now is that I had to reschedule my carpet guy to Saturday and my track barriers have not arrived yet. I still have a shot at opening on Sunday for racing but I am not sure if it will happen.


I only have one shot at a first impression and I want to make it a good one. I will announce tomorrow if we are a go or not. If it does not seem we can get it done I will try for a week day opening or next Sunday for sure. I appoligize, it some times is not as simple as it can be.


Stay tuned Mr. Murphy has arrived!

There will be no racing on Sunday! :0(

I've tried my best to have everything ready but my barrier system will not arrive till Monday. I am very sorry to all those that planned to come out and support the track. This extra time will allow me some extra time to get more "i's" dotted and "t's" crossed. It was a very large challenge to build and open a track in thee weeks and I almost did it! Next week we will race for sure I look forward to seeing everyone then.

Please pass the word along to those that don't follow all the forms.

Thank you!

You have any new pics of the track yet? Also, will you have 12th scale tires for sale?

Ok, found it and sent a friend request. Track looks good, but couldn't tell what classes everyone was running. I'll be out of town this wednesday but I already ordered some stuff for my 12th scale (AE) to be there next wednesday. Save me a set of tires that everyone is running on that carpet. It looks fairly new.

We had 7 in 1/12 17.5 today. I'm sure we can run 13.5 too no prob and still keep a 17.5 class.

I'm getting into USGT and had a question on tires. All the rules I've been able to find seem to point to any treaded tire from any vendor. Is that the case?

For example, these were mentioned one place: http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...e-D-Compound-2

I couldn't get your link to work but that is okay. If you go to hobbytalk.com there is a Red Mosquito thread in the on-road section and we cover the topic over there. http://www.hobbytalk.com/bbs1/showthread.php?t=376279

Right now the rule is gonna be either the HPI tires or the solaris med. Yesterday at the race the guys in USGT started with the Hpi tires but ended up switching to the solaris once the bite came up.

I look forward to seeing you at the track!
