Probably a little late on this answer, but I heard they started at 10. Open at 8 for 2 hours of practice.

Awesome race, there's never a doubt why I look forward to the first weekend of December every year!

Thanks Scotty for the great racing, the great prizes, sponsors, and getting some fast guys from all over to lay it down. For me, it was really great seeing Losi's do well. It ain't the car, it's the driver!



And since Bremer never comes on here, is it to early to start talkin smack!??

Next December can't come soon enough!!!!

What a fun weekend and what a great event. I cannot wait to come back up in April! I need to take a sec here and once again thank Matt Sunderledge for all his setup help, advice and info. Without his help I wouldn't have done much and my results would have been much different. Matt, it's hard to believe that we started racing together over 15-years ago but I hope that I can someday repay the favors. I owe you.

Now if Marty just wouldn't have wussed out and would have raced LOL

Thanks to all of you for your very kind comments. But I must be the first to say it is a team effort at Trackside. All of us together is what makes Trackside what it is and makes it the fun place we all love. With out the Trackside Team of guys it would just be another track. So thanks Kenny, Buck and Jamie for taking care of things when I am away from Trackside, to all of you who always pitch in to build the track, help clean up after the race, Help label parts when they come in and just make Trackside the best. Thanks to all of you.

The race was an absolute success! Our biggest Off Road event ever at Trackside. I must first thank Spektrum Radio Systems and Sonny Brown for believing in us to support this event and helping make it the huge success it was. I could not count the number of racers and spectators that spent time talking to Sonny and looking at the display of cool stuff he had set up from Spektrum and Dynamite. Sonny was also key in making it possible to bring in the Losi Drivers for the event. Matt Chambers, Dustin Evans and of course Dakota Phend and his family Doug and Nancy, It was great to have you guys join us this weekend. You are all great people and I truly hope you had a great time spending the weekend with us. I would also like to thank the Richards crew from Ohio for making the long drive to race with us. I did not get a chance to say good bye and thanks, but I hope you had a great time.

I also want to thank Brent Theilke from Team Associated for making it possible for Ryan Cavaliere to race with us again. Having a World Champion like him join us for our events helps add so much to the race and gives the opportunity for everyone to ask for advice or get help from one of the best racers in the world.

I would also like to thank the Richards crew from Ohio for making the long drive to race with us. I did not get a chance to say good bye and thanks, but I hope you had a great time.


It always brings me joy when 1st time racers to Trackside choose to spend a weekend with us. Especially when it is professional racers like the ones I had mentioned. They have the chance to go to almost any race they wish and when they decide to join us, it means the world to me. I am always very proud of the event we produce here at Trackside and my wish is always the same. No matter where a racers finishes I hope they always have a great time. To quote Mike K. " TQ OR DQ" I hope everyone walks away from an event at Trackside saying this is how it is supposed to be done. Fun, exciting, great atmosphere and done with passion and a love for the hobby.

Of course it is so great to have the Pro's join us for our event, but it is also the hobbyist, the regular Joe's that add just as much excitement and importance to the event. And I thank you guys also. Many of you drove many hours to race with us this weekend and that also is very important to me and I hope you also had a great time.

So another big event is in the books at Trackside and we have some new champions. I congratulate all of them on your wins and I hope you all will be back next year December 3,4,5 2010 to spend the weekend with us.

Thanks to Spektrum, Associated, and also Jason at J Concpets for supporting this race and sending some great prizes for us to give to the racers.

All of us at Trackside look forward to seeing you all next year.

Here are the results from the event.

Thanks
Scotty
