Hi All

Quick update on the track rebuild:

New track is done. It is faster, flowier, grippier.
Subfloor is done and painted.
New permanent pit tables - If you would like to pay for a private pit space, please see Brad or Brian. Private pit areas will be marked, other pit space on the new tables are open to anyone.
We will be installing a second heater on the far side of the track.
New pop cooler will be installed - Will include chips, pop, and chocolate bars for sale during race days.
We are looking at getting our overhead door installed in the next few weeks.

Pictures:





Stay tuned for an opening date really soon!

Aaron

Hopefully no one minds me posting this here, but it seems more directed than the Buy/Sell thread. I have a hardly used Karz/Trukz transponder for sale for $30. I live in Varsity in the NW.

Heya, just curious how you guys have attached transponders to B6D buggies. I used a bent piece of 2mm styrene and stuck that to the top of my steering servo. It doesn't seem ideal, so I'm looking for input. Thx.

The track looks amazing! More pics please! Any hint of an opening date? And for those who raced regularly, what were the approximate pre race practice start time and race finishing time? Trying to get the A-ok from the boss

Rod lets just say I pay attention when I find myself under a very bright light and she is holding a bottle of vodka and a knife..... Putins in everything!

Hey

We are looking at opening up again shortly after RcGears Nitro Stampede. We will be racing Saturdays with doors open at 10am and racing to follow at 11. Depending on numbers and how long a lunch break we take we are usually done between 3 and 4.

Thanks

Aaron
