Default Sunday Qualifying

There should not be any concern of not making the A-Main for the Pro Buggy Class.

It is unlikely that we'll have more than 12 entries in the Pro Buggy Class therefore everyone will be in the A.

If there are more entries than expected we have a couple options:

1. We can shuffle some other racers to the Sport Division, then likewise if need be, we can create a 3rd Division. We will always try to accomodate everyone and provide eveyone with a competitive day of racing.

2. We can squeeze in a second qualifier on Sunday. As long as we get everyone there early and move quickly this is very feasible.

3. Rest assured, as mentioned above, we will do our very, very best to make sure the classes are evenly aligned and that everyone is satisfied with where they're racing.

Thanks!!!

If you're fast and have a Gas Truck and looking for a decent payday, bring it to the track this weekend at the Altoona Raceway. I'm adding $50 to the 1st place prize (Gas Truck Only!). If we have any turnout at all, that should put the winners take over $100.

I'm under no delusions of keeping my $50. I just think the payout for Gas Truck should always exceed that of 1/8 Buggy because you actually have to drive the Gas Truck.

Lets get it on!

I was wondering if anyone would be able to charge a few reciever batteries for me this weekend. I don't have a power supply yet and I'm not sure if I will be able to get one before this weekend. The little power supplies with my chargers died

Make sure Jim does not hook you or himself up to the charger. last time Jim said "I can charge you up" he was sitting under his pit tent with the charger clips on his nipples and a gag ball in his mouth. He stayed there and missed the entire day of racing.

Ask and you shall receive.

Yep I comin for both days for gas truck and 1/8th scale. Wow thats awsome, I guess I shouldn't worry about charging batteries too much. I should be able to get them charged before I come up, but depending on how much I run before racing they will need charged once sat., and defienetly once or twice sunday.
Thanks, Brandon
