I like the picture of the 301 track and note the sections that could be taken out for electric cars!!

Yes ... Wallbanger has the computer system, pa and the stuff I normally take down. Remember to bring some paper as I believe I left it in the garage ... UGH!

The table, speakers, exstension cords that I use for the speakers were put n the trailer at the last race. Everthing else is in the blue tote and the computer case.

Wallbanger, remember to plug in the house transponders by Saturday morning. Can be pluged in early, but will take 20-26 hours to fully charge. Chris D. could help with setting up as he helped the last time.

Have a GREAT RACE DAY!

i am not happy.

just went down to get the trailer, and it had a flat tire. went and got an air tank, luckily it was still on the bead so i was able to fill it up enough to get it back to my house. boy am i glad i bought that spare. seems as though we have a screw it the tire. i got it changed, i will be asking for a voulenteer to take the tire and get it fixed before the next race.

another hour and a half wasted.

but hey, the race must go on.

big thanks to dave hasset for draging the water trailer down to invesco so we can have traction.

and finally, thank you all for coming out. we had a great day at invesco.

i even heard the monkey had a good day in spite of being constantly spanked.

First off I would like to say what a great day for some racing With that 35 minutes of racing in the main's, I don't know why we haven't used bump-up's before Man was that FUN It seemed as though there was plenty of action on the track, and plenty of monkeying around in the pit's

Ditto. Many thanks to all the members/racers who make the extra effort to keep the club going. As much as it pains me, I would also like to throw a special thanks out to Kieth for showing up early to blow the track off and running concessions. Getting the track blown off quickly sure helps to get the track done.

Great racing everyone. Triple A's seemed to go ok, with the exception of the extended marshalling times by them. Maybe we can improve it, maybe not. I think we should give it some time and see if triples are still beneficial.

Bump-ups worked fine, and Mr. Horton and Fredi sandbagged thier way into an extra 15 min of racing. I think it adds some flavor to the class....

We'll try and get the results to date posted to onroadcolorado.com soon...

Sounds like I missed a great day of racing ...

Wallbanger - bring the computer to the E-Plex on Wednesday and I'll update the sereis points, so that it is ready to roll on the 6th. Need to spend the weekend with the wife unit as the anniversary makes it 23 years!!

Hey guys,

Just thinking ahead to Fall/Winter and 1/12th scale on the carpet...

As this is my first time in the 1/12 arena, I was curious as to what tires you guys run? Been trying to figure out the whole color-code for 1/12 foams.

I ended up getting a slightly used CRC T-Fource as my starter car. From what I have heard, it will be fairly forgiving for a novice like me.
