wassup? seems like most of the usual cast of characters are confirmed for the 1/12th scale classes (which I think is great since the 1/12th cars are my personal favorite). but there does seem to be relatively few sedan pilots signed up as compared to previous years. just wondering why the little cars are entered en force while there are so few big ones registered. Not complaining, mind you. Just wondering why.

Perhaps TC is just dead in general.......

C'mon TC racers sign-up and show us what you got!!!!
