We will have menus for the place down the road on hand also. See you there.
Gabe,
I have my stuff loaded ready for the trip tomorrow. Could you post up in the morning how things are looking weather wise up at TLB? I should be pulling out between 8:30 and 9:00. Hope to see you guys there.

I got screwed at work this last Saturday, but Sundays are easier for me to schedule off for, my work weeks take place thrurs through sun

Hope I can make it for the next one, my buggy and truggy have been sitting waiting for some abuse for 2 or 3 weeks now lol.

Default This Weekend

Our forecast is calling for T storms on saturday and rain on Sunday. It looks as if we will have to play it by ear for the weekend.

Default SORRY GUYS!!!!

TOBY HAS DECIDED TO MOW OVER THE TRACK TO PLANT CORN. THE TLB RACEWAY WAS SHORT LIVED AND NOW WE HAVE NO PLACE TO GO LOCALLY. I AM ASKING MY FELLOW LOCAL RC DRIVERS TO COME TOGETHER WITH SUGGESTIONS OF WHAT WE CAN DO LOCALLY FOR A TRACK. I NOW HAVE 1,000 FOOT OF 4" WATER PIPE AND STEAKS TOWARDS A FUTURE PROJECT.

we are not "local" but we are pretty much done. We ran our cars on the track yesterday all day.

we have a lap counting system, electric, lights....... we could use racers, helpers and suggestions.
