A simple 'coverage' blog on liverc would clear up a lot of confusion. It's hard to be an rc bum when you don't have all the 411!
It's called the Reedy Race not the LiveRC race

Any info Reedy?!?!?!?!?!?

I'm talking about broadcast times of all 'premium' liverc events.. Not just this race.. And when cams are down etc... A place to get the 411 so you don't have to go into chat to ask... Is ______ on yet? What time is ________ on? Is your video working? It's an on going theme in the liverc chat, but easy to resolve. That's all I'm saying! Liverc rocks, but when?

Tokyo is 14 hours ahead of East Coast time, 15 hours ahead of Central, 16 hours ahead of Mountain and 17 hours ahead of Pacific. It's almost 11:00am Friday there right now.

So, Friday evening and Saturday evening should be when the racing is going on over there.

Well after driving all night we made it to Yatabe at about 5:30 AM. The doors opened for practice at 11:00. The weather today was super cold here with a rain/snow mix. The track is super high grip and most racers have or are grinding their tires to slicks. Hayato-san is lightning fast with his 2wd and Shin is also lightnig fast with his ZX5FS. Tomorrow 2WD qualifiers start at 9:00. I still have a few setup changes to make first thing in the morning but for now I need SLEEP Sorry for the very short update but Live RC was there today and were filming so I hope some of you were able to see their coverage. Oyasumi nasai!

You mentioned qualifiers.
Is there an Invitational class that will race for points or will it be run as qualifiers and mains for everyone.

The best part of the past Reedy races was the fact that it had the top drivers in the world at that time racing head to head for points to determine a winner after 2 days of racing.

scotty said last night that there would be 10 rounds of invitational. 5 on day 1 and 5 on day 2. 2wd and 4wd most likely.

Great to hear that there is the Invitational class.

It is by far the best racing format ever!

Also glad to hear it should be 2w and 4w and not Trucks!

Somebody better put this on video as well as liverc.com

I video taped all the Invitational classes at the Reedy Touring car races a few times when it was local and it was awesome!

Really missed the Reedy Offroad races after 4w slowed way down.

Really cool live on rclive yesterday evening. The track looks really fun and I love the non-static camera.

Have fun guys.
