Traction is really high right now. I would be surprised if the stockers did not grip now.

Default Wow

We had 80 SC trucks at the track tonight. We had 12 more entries into TheShortCourseRace. It's filling up fast. Everyone who has signed up online, please come by or send in the payment to secure your spot at the race.

Two things were thinking about doing.

1. Getting a sc8 type of class going. What we need is at least 20 racers signed up for the class. Right now we have 4 racers that would like to run the class. We will refund everyone their money if there aren't enough racers in the class.

2. Should we allow more than 200-220 racers? We don't want this to be just another race where were trying to get as many racers as possible but we do want to be fair to those who haven't signed up yet.

Please let us know what you think. We'll release the sponsors of the race in a couple days.

on question 1
well even 10 be great even for a "Exibition Race" it could be a start to something nice later

on question 2
well i was a race director for some of the bigger events from time to time (silver State-Nats etc.)
at 200 entries is a L-O-N-G DAY! with someone having something to say after every couple of heats? sometimes it can get Boged down!
some years were smoother than others?
anyways,
as long as the racers know it's not for some crazy or insane "Title" or a crazy prize deal that wont be honored? then 220 probally be Ok?? but more Important!! can the Facility handle the extra load?,power,water,suplies,pits? and extra help! being where it will be i think with Notch at the Helm,should be pretty smooth running,

now if i can get my truck in time LOL!
but looks like i may be a Spectator

Today is the last day to take advantage of the bonus race bucks for signing up. If you sign up today, you receive an extra $10 in race bucks.

Sign ups will still be open up until race day.

Just a reminder to get the extra $10
