We thought we would try to do 1 or 2 hours and you can use any motors you want. Yes its the same race fees.
I hope you can make it but it might be tight to get you back by 9
bring lots of batteries and motors.

I really wanted to be there but real life has just kicked my ass these past two weeks. Sorry for not being around as much. I will be there to help move out next Sunday.

We had the best time at the 2nd annual 24 Hours of MARCCA last night. We had 3 teams and ran an endurance race for 1 1/2 hours. It was a blast.
That was the most fun I have had in this hobby since I started.
1st place went to Team #2 of Cesar and Jason Mayer =452 Laps
2nd place was Team #1 of Charlie and BOB =450 Laps
3rd place was Team #3 with Lenny, Vang and Jim D. =442 Laps
Bob and I might have won but I put my car down and ran 4 laps before my motor cam came loose because I forgot the clamp. That cost us at least 5 laps.
Cesar had the winning strategy of going a little slower but staying out on the track for over 8 minutes at a time.
Bob and I ran half mod and half stock with 3000 packs and still could not keep up. A classic tortoise and the hare race.
It was very intence. I feel that with more time the race would have gotten even more interesting because we would have run out of motors and batteries.
We must do this agian with more people and an even longer race.
