Well I can make it rain on command, all I have to do is plan a race or a track

rebuild. Anyone need rain in their town, I am available for hire. As usual

Monday and the rest of the week is looking great, will see what I can get done

during the week and update later .

Thanks, Chris

I was thinking we could dig a hole in the middle of the table top and turn it into an above ground pool.

Hello Racers,

Here the schedule for the track rebuild. For anyone who can help the official day for that will be Saturday April 24th (as rain canceled the 17th). Work will be done before that day (such as fence removal, dirt added to back section) so the 24th will mostly consist of the layout of the jumps and piping. The first scheduled date for racing will be Sunday May 2 on the new layout (unless weather forecast looks better for Sat.) . Will post it on rcsignups.com

Thanks, Chris Allec

Default driver stand?

Are you going to raise the driver stand say 6 to 8 foot higher? This is so we can see the back section?

I can only do so much at one time. The back section of the track has been raised and will

have an angle to it. If racers come out and support the track , raising the driver stand

has already been thought of for a future project.
