holy cow. it's January 9th! Early is good but I figured if we knew by May 1st we would be good. This is going to be over the summer months right? Or will it start earlier and end later using some indoor tracks too?

It will be here before you know it. Plus just wanted to see if any tracks have said anything. Hey thanks again for the SC10 really starting to like it. Might have to unload the 22 for b4.1

So having just picked up an ebuggy...

These don't run on the electric day? I'd be interested in attending with my ebuggy if I could also run my SC or some other class. I really have no interest going if it's with the nitros.

was excited to hear about a electric series.

lost interest after hearing ebuggy not running with them.

i agree,being able to run all my 1/10 and ebuggy was going to be great.

Sorry guys, i planned out the classes for both series so we all can have a fun race in one day. And still get home at a decent hour.
I'm trying to avoid the 1am days and shoot for 10 or 11pm.
It may work, it may not....

Theres other ways of shortening the night up. Like only doing one resort and going immediately from one round to another. That will get you an hour and a half right there. Also the electric 1/8th scale classes only get a 15 minute main anyways as compareded to 30 minute nitro. I agree with all the others. To not run the 1/8 e buggies and truggies with the rest of the electrics is crazy. I also wouldnt be interested in going to 2 different series just to run both my 1/10 and 1/8. Dont make sense.

I would think The E buggy guys would like running on a track made to run 1/8th scale not a 1/10 track. I know I would

Same here. And I wouldn't care to run 1/10 on an 1/8 track

Same here. We don't run ebuggy, but I would prefer to run on a track that is 1/10 only. Plus, assuming that Trackside is one of the tracks, they do not allow 1/8 scale of any kind. You're right on Gary, and there will be plenty of racers with all the 1/10 classes you currently have.

update:
I am very sorry for taking so long to get you a set schedule. I will say I ran into a few delays which is my own fault. However I do have 3 tracks locked in May, June and July. I am in talks with a forth and should have that by this weekend.
Im going to eat up one more week and post a schedule i like by Feb 15/16th one way or another.
I hope this will not give you the wrong impression, i want this to be a great series.
