I put the B3 back together today, seems the 2WD buggies still get some love even though the nitro stadium trucks aren't. I still have some things to iron out though seeing as I haven't driven it in years! Too bad the semester is over and I'll be moving back to the eastern side of the state. But if you guys are still racing in September I'll be there.

I guess Trains and Lanes in Easton is getting back into the off road scene. Which is great because it's only about 45 mins away.

Thank you to everyone that came out today. Testin the layout worked well. Added some here, took some away from here. Definitely loomy but as it gets ran in, watered and treated along with the rain that seems to only like to fall on the weekends, it will get real nice.

Large chance of rain for tomorrow, along with the rain we are supposed to get in the next few hours. Check this thread before you head out tomorrow.

Well, it is calling for rain at 80% chance. It has not rained here yet. I will have everything at the track and ready. It is up to you guys to decide. I would hate for people to come out and it pour. If anything, if turnout is low, you guys are free to practice as much as you want. See you guys there.

Well, the rain came.

It was nice to see Brayden and Sam Crawford today. Wait till you guys see Brayden driving his Slash. He is doing fantastic, picked up the layout quick. Was running really good laps. He's 6 and he can drive 100% better than me. LOL

Hey Rob...I don't think any track pics have been posted. I was just there last Sunday but didn't run...it wouldn't stop spitting rain. I should have taken my camera but didn't. My son ran his slash when the rain slowed and I don't think the 1/10's are going to have any trouble. It was a fresh layout and alot of new dirt was put in so it needed to settle and compact. Just put a post up for who can run truck and buggy to make sure enough will be there. The track owner is also Rob , maybe he can snap some the next time he's there. I'm not sure if I can make it this Sunday...being Mothers day and all.
Sam
