Default 2011 Outdoor Off Road Racing at Clark RC Park

Clark RC Park 2011
Just getting the word out that we will be running a full race schedule this year and hope to see everyone out to have a great time.

Changes this year:
Our starting time has changed, we will open at 9 and racing will start at noon. We will run 2 qualifiers and the mains with a 20 minute break between rounds so people can get more time on the track. We will continue to use the rolling start method for the mains as that seemed to work out great last year. We are still talking over how long the A Mains should be so if you have an opinion now's the time to weigh in!

The Track:
We will yet again be expanding and adding to the drivers stand to accommodate more racers per heat. This will help move things along come raceday and people won't be cramped for space. We are still working on the track layout and will post it as soon as we can. Again if anyone has an opinion on this please let us know!
For now all we can do is wait for mother nature to cooperate and get rid of the snow so we can get at it.

Classes:
The classes we will be running will remain the same for the most part. If we see a larger turnout of electrics, we may consider making a separate class for them to avoid confusion and keep things fair. So Short Course, Buggy and Truggy will be the main classes we run.

More info:
Want to see pics of the track? Need directions? Wanna know more about the crazy guy who run this track? Check the website! www.clarkrcpark.com

Thanks for looking and I hope to see everyone out at the track for another great year!

Default Short Course Classes

I'm trying to get an idea of what to run for Short Course this year... Now we have 2WD Stock, 2WD Mod, 4WD 1/10 scale, 4WD 1/8 scale.... Crazy.

So what is everybody planning on running?

Buggy and 2WD Short bus. In past 17.5 (stock) did not exist much outdoors, I think most people ran 13.5 to 8.5.

Can't wait to run. Get the new buggy out, and see how the new motor works in the 4x4 Short Bus.

A crude drawing of how the 2011 track layout might be, be sure to post comments!



Last years track, for reference.
