Hello Racers
Great day of racing today. Couple highlights:
-We had a full house of 37 entries spread over 3 classes. Lots of great racing on the track and lots of helping out in the pits.
-We had a new racer using the demo truck today and a returning racer from two weeks ago that "graduated" from the demo program. He did very well today and will be coming out regularly.
-Thanks for Mike Newhook and his company for the donation of cash for a proper port a potty and taking on the task of getting our timing system all calibrated. We should be picking up the new port a potty this week.
Overall a great day. See everyone next week.
Thanks

Hi All
A couple of questions for the racers:
1. Can some people recommend some tire choices that are working on the new surface to me? I would like to get a few recommendations from different brands so we can start to source out a tire buy for new racers and others. Please let me know the manufacturer, model, and if they are working on 2wd, 4wd, short course and on the front or rear.
2. Do any of the racers have a durable steering servo they would like to donate to the club demo truck? The one I donated was broken on the weekend. We would like to have the demo truck up and running soon again.
Thanks

Hi All
Quick recap of racing yesterday. Thanks to everyone who came out.
-We had a total of 30 entries over 3 classes. Short Course continues to pick up steam.
-We had 5 new racers out yesterday. That to Leo for joining us and for James and his family for joining us.
-The new to us porta-potty is set up and in use.
-Unfortunately we could not get our second heater up and running. It will be fixed and running if we need it next week. Having the second heater on would have eliminated the extra track work that was needed between Q1 and Q2.
Thanks

Hi All
Quick note about the tire order. We are going to postpone the current order due to low subscription. Anyone who has given me cash for their tires will get it back.
We are looking at a new way of getting tire choice to the racers for a great price. Stay tuned over the next couple of weeks for details.
Sorry for having to postpone, but we think most racers will appreciate what we have in mind.
Thanks

Hi All
Great race day today. We had 45 entries over 3 classes. 2 out of the 3 classes had C mains. Thanks for all of the support for dirt off road in Calgary. A couple notes:
-I want to recognize everyone who has taken part formally or informally in the Buddy program. We have got quite a few new racers through the program this year and they are sticking around. This in my opinion is the best way to get new racers in the hobby. I am getting more emails every week of new people looking to use the demo car. Great work!
-I also have transponders available still if anyone needs one. I haven't been to the track for a while, but can meet you in the City during the week if you need one. They are $46.
-Don't forget that discount list racers get $15 off at https://grumpysrcgarage.com. If you need your discount code let me know and I will share it with you. If you have paid to be on the racer discount list then you are in their system for the discount, you just need to get an account open with them and put in the code.
-As always, if you have any comments or concerns, please contact one of the exec.
Thanks
