I know its a little early but just saw the forecast for the up coming weekend and it looks beautiful .
Unless it changes we are going to be at the track bright and early Sunday morning for some great outdoor on road rc fun .
My cars are ready to fly I hope yours are to .

On the RRR Raceway, what kind of motor do you guys usually use? 11.5, 13.5, or any others?

What kind of motors are typically used in races? Tell me the kind of races there are if you can. My esc is Hobbywing 120A, it's the same as SpeedPassion.

your tekin 13.5t with hobbywing is good to go.
try look for suggested gear ratio for your motor on tekin section.
try different gearing next club race.
dont forget temp gun and setting card for your esc

Some of the guys advised that the weather looks better Saturday then Sunday so it looks like we are going to run on Saturday .
Will probably follow the same schedule as last time (clean up Friday and run Saturday).

Well it looks like I had the wrong idea with trying to go for the Saturday .
The forecast has changed again and it looks like Sunday is going to be the better day .
I have asked the owners if we could just go back to our regular Sunday .I think also logistically it would be easier for everyone to set up Sunday .I should have answer tonight .
I am very sorry for trying to flip the dates .

Well everyone's efforts were rewarded and we had a great day of fun .
It was a bit dodgy at the beginning with a very brief shower that took about thirty minutes to dry up .
There were a couple of times that the clouds creeped back and it looked like the day was going to be done only for the clouds to move back east and the sun start trying to make a apperance .
It never really did clear up, but it did'nt rain on us for the rest of the day either .
It was really cool seeing people tuning thier cars and trying different things to get faster laps .
Slowly during the practise sessions people would group together and get some great battles going for many laps . It looks like we are just beginning a great season or out door on road .

We are going to be at the track next week

Well the weekend is quickly approaching .
We are going to be at the track Saturday evening about 530 for cleaning and will be at the track about 830 Sunday morning .
Bring your nitro car or bring your electric car but just bring them out and have some fun .
