See you there

Sorry, there won't be a driverstand for this practice session so please bring a step stool if you can. Track will be blown and sauced the same as our Turkey Dash event which is the following weekend so get your cars out there and dialed ahead of time!

For more information on this practice event, please contact me

Default Trophy Event

Friendly reminder about our Turkey Dash Event this coming Sunday! The TLF team plans to start setting up extra early this event to get the track open for practice and race registration open early. 8am to 10am practice.

If you're planning to race, it would be great if you could message me what classes you intend to race and your transponder number(s). This saves a lot of time with setup so we can get the race program started efficiently!
Also, reminder that the 1st-10 PAID entries in the Turkey Dash Eurotruck Endurance race is guaranteed a spot on the driverstand. Bring a step stool in case you miss out!

Thanks so much in advance and hope you all have a HAPPY AND SAFE THANKSGIVING! 🦃



Almost 2lbs of hardware people are going to take home Sunday

Default TURKEY DASH EVENT

I think it's safe to say our inaugural Turkey Dash Race was a SUCCESS! Thank you to all that raced with us, helped with track set-up/take-down and congrats to all of the raffle winners.

Much appreciation to all of our sponsors who donated to this event's raffle prizes: Tamiya RC Shift rcs Rush RC Topher Cabrales Racing Miller Time Designs. Also thanks to Even Sparrow Films and Eric Liao for capturing footage of the full event. Videos are still being post-processed and will be shared shortly. Lastly a huge THANK YOU to our gracious hosts HobbyTown Santee for being so welcoming and accommodating!

We owe it to you all for the great start to THE LAP FACTORY racing program and we are amped to kick off 2022 with the Winter Solstice Series race. Our race schedule will be the second Sunday of each month (weather permitting) starting with January 9, 2022. More details to come... And don't forget to ask Santa to hook you up with some RC parts (from our awesome sponsors). 😁

Default Solstice22 Series round 1

Our official track layout for Solstice22 Series Race 1 (Jan 9 - counter-clockwise) & Race 2 (Feb 20 - clockwise). 🤙

For Race 1, it looks like we'll have a chilly morning with a high in the 60's. Track will be open for practice and registration at 8:00am. Racing starts at 9:30am-ish.

$20 1st class $30 2nd class 3rd 4th 5th.......FREE
Rookie kids always race for free
Adult rookies first time free

It is official! We added the VTA class to our race program starting this Sunday.

As of now, we will be following the VTA body, tires, 1425g min. weight, 25.5t motor, blinky esc rules. We will eventually add the driver head requirement after the Solstice22 Series is complete.

Vta class is looking to be one of the bigger classes for our series.
Bring out those VTA's! Looking to have a great class, even a few coming from AZ this Sunday!!!

Default Solstice22 update



🚨ATTENTION🚨
Please update your calendars, we decided to move Solstice Series Race #2 to FEBRUARY 20th! (Blame it on the Superbowl. 👎🏼 We'll update our cover photos/flyers asap)

In addition, we decided to add a Racer Appreciation Practice on February 6th. Details about the practice will be posted in a few weeks.

Also, we've added a new class to cater to our diverse racing crowd:
Novice TC
This class is intended to be the stepping stone between Rookie and Sportsman TC! Unfortunately this class will not be included in the current points series, but will still be eligible for potential podium prizes.

We had an awesome kickoff to 2022 and we have lots of exciting things to look forward to! 🤙🏼

If you are in need of a very affordable but fast esc, motor 17.5 or 21.5 combo with program box check out this link. I have them available
