Great racing today...glad to see everyone come out to race. Looking forward to practice on Tuesday and racing on Thursday night.

The track was really good today...traction was really good and the mains had some great races.

People are missing out on some great on-road racing and to think it is right in your own backyard. Don't miss anymore people!!!!

Myself and a few others will be at the track for practice tomorrow if anybody would like to come out. I figure we'll be there about 4PM - 9PM.

In addition to being a Speedmerchant dealer, I’m now also a dealer for TOP USA. TOP offers their PHOTON touring car, SABRE front drive touring car and will soon have a line of 1/10 and 1/12 pan cars. I hope to have a Rebel 1/12 kit in hand shortly.

TOP also offers stainless screws, titanium screws, bearings, ceramic diff balls, shirts, hats, you name it they probably have it.

You guys running losi sliders in oval? That seams to be a big class back in Indiana and might be an inexpensive class for people to get started racing in.

It's currently not a class but i think a few people own some. I agree it could be a good way to get more people out racing oval. If 3 or more people show up it will become a class.

Mention it to some of your friends and bring'em out.

Sliders would be a really good spec class for Oval. We've been talking about doing something similar for On-road with Tamiya Mini's.
