Yep,
I am also making the trip across too, i heard a runour that international competitors might be supplied with a pit area ( IE t\Table, Chair , Canopy) is this correct.
Also do you guys run 2 stage foams in the rear over there?
I am just starting to get prepared for my first massive event offshore.
Cheers

SRS News!
SRS News-
Thanks again for all of the guys that came out and raced on Saturday!! Over 10 heats with almost 80 racers!! It was great meeting some of the Fear Farm racers that made it out. I hope everyone had a great time!!
SIGP-
After talking with a lot of racers on Saturday it sounds like a good handful of guys can’t make it down for SIGP because of other obligations. Aaron, George and Greg have volunteered to stay behind and run SRS and the races for me. So if you cant make it down to Tucson and you want to race come on out to SRS this weekend!!
SRS Schedule-
Friday 10/21/2011- Open Practice 1pm-10pm
Saturday 10/22/2011- Club Racing at 6pm
Thanks again to Aaron George and Greg for everything!!

If your making the trek across the pond I'll line you up with table/chairs/easy-up or anything else I have and/or can borrow. Pretty sure I'm going to run our 'States' race (which is also very stacked) but Cactus I believe I'll just volunteer to help out. I'd listen to any advice Friery has on the technical side, he's likely turned a few hundred thousand laps at SRS

Table, Chair , Canopy
Question, few of us are looking to attend the Cactus this year and wondered if there was anywhere around there to rent these things? If not, what do most people do who fly in...Buy them from Wal-Mart and trash them when you leave? Any advice would be greatly appropriated. Also, would it be safe to assume that the date on website are rock solid? 26th anniversary race March 23-25 2012
Thanks!
Thanks!

Its always great to the help and generosity of a fellow RC racer, not mater what side of the planet you are from.
Thanks heaps
