I just raced my nitro SC8 in the onroad slash class down hear. it was one of the funnest races i've ever had in all my year of rc racing. So maybe it was a little unfair putting my p7r up against their titan motors, but everyone has a great time racing the class. We just throw some skateboard ramps down and go nuts. Dont knock till ya try it.
Ins't gonna happen

I live in San Diego where there is only one off-road track (not 3-4), that doesn't race tenth scale, and two on-road tracks, kind of. So if you wanna race a slash, but dont wanna drive an hour and 45 to do it, you do what you have to. There just so happens to be about 12 other guys in the same situation so we set our cars and jumps down and have a good time (club racing).
It wasnt my intention to INSIST, convince or even request that they run slashes in parking lot 100 feet away from a great offroad track - youre right that would be dumb. All I was trying to say is that a slash in parking lot (or an sc8) with jumps is a pretty good time. Even funner is a b44. Ray Ramirez has brought his out and smoked my s400 a few times (tells you how good I am at driving) at discount and said it was as much fun as he has had racing in a while.
just my .02 - nothing more

What part of "I had a great time racing an SC8 in a parking lot" sounds like I "INSIST" on having a truck class at an onroad track
I live in San Diego where there is only one off-road track (not 3-4), that doesn't race tenth scale, and two on-road tracks, kind of. So if you wanna race a slash, but dont wanna drive an hour and 45 to do it, you do what you have to.

I plan on setting up the on-road track this Thursday around 11AM
(If its not raining) and tear it down around 6Pm
All are welcome to come and drive and pit inside at NO Charge
Kevin and I want to get as much feedback as we can so our first race day
will go off well!
The transponder system has been ordered and the timing bridge is being built
Just a few more weeks
Peace

Robert- Is the surface being 'prepped' in any way (ie, sugar water, etc)?
