I know Tony said you can mail in entries and it will be available on rcsignup.com as well.

I'm sure they are working on getting a racer rate at on of the motels close, there are several to choose from.

I will probably open the track for practice Friday afternoon. I just want it to be fair for everyone. Not everyone can make it a whole weekend, so thats why I made it a 1 day race. Plus, racing under the lights is awesome for the mains.

In stock, I am thinking an honor system where the top 5 go to a table after the race, for competitors to look over, and can protest. I am alright with aftermarket tires, but want to keep it stock spec motors no timing, no boost. If there is enough call for a strictly stock class, I dont have a problem creating one. Any insight from people will be taken into consideration.

The track is the most fun Ive ever raced a shortcourse on! The layout wont have really super big jumps (Ok maybe one if you got the nads ), because you never know if wind will be an issue, but I guarantee it will be dialed.

Pretty much any tire works here, so no stress about what to get. Im a J Concept Driver, and like Subcultures the best.

Im working on getting racer discounts to a few hotels within a mile from the track. Ill post more info as soon as details are worked out.

There are easily 100 short course drivers in Iowa alone. We also have guys coming from Minnesota, Nebraska and Missouri. Competition will be fast, and we will all have a great time.

Jason Chandler will be announcing and will be the race Director, be prepared for plenty of laughs there. LOL

If you have any more questions, please feel free to let me know.

The track is located at the 4H Fairgrounds and is called Fort Dodge R/C Raceway. The address to the track is 22770 Old Highway 169 Fort Dodge, IA 50501

You can mail entry form with payment and T Shirt size to

Fort Dodge R/C

Thanks for the interest!
