If there aren't enough chicanes we could impromptu turn a regular chicane into a double chicane. Just a thought. Something like this.

By the way, nice crayon usage. I bet you've been waiting forever to pull those out of your desk.

Joey's Rebel12 tackles NorCal...
12th scale is dead here. I might as well have been standing in the middle of the track, spinning in circles at the end of a control-line Wright Flyer. It's TC or Off Road. Really nice pavement, though.

That's Jason's Rebel 12 now. It looks awesome. Nice paint. I heard the pavement was great, how did the car handle?

Sandy took a promotion at the BLM office in Lakewood. We might be relocating there in the Fall. You guys might be seeing me around and I won't have to convert my Rebel12 to offroad...

I also dropped in on Michael at TOP and got some shims and a new spur. Nice guy. The TOP Racing USA warehouse is his spare bedroom.
So my neighbor gave me this (surprising how many people have done RC before) ..
I was going to donate it to the club so people can try stuff if they walk in the door but if you can put it to good use it's yours.
Hell .. I think that the newest Speed Merchant uses the same front end

You gonna go to Norcal to watch Reedy next week? It's basically going to be worlds lite, every driver worth watching (in the world) will be there.

With that sort of talk where is your EX? I'm starting to really like the EX. If someone from your track is looking to get hammered drunk - tell them to stop by

Adam I have the new UPS in, I'll drop it off at your pit either tomorrow or Thurs. I also have the 50ft ethernet cable with it.
When are those boards going up? I'll help get em installed and such if we pick a day to do it that I am around.

This is probably 3 paragraphs too long for the average CORRC attention span, so I apologize in advance.
Because our track currently looks like a vacant business homeless people are hiding in, or just an out of business store front that left behind some crap, I think something should change with the Tracks Image. I am going to pay for and produce these on my own independent of the track or its funds. I do need help with the message and design though! I am not a graphic designer.
I was thinking of 2 banners (one on either side of the front door), and one of the spare Beta Brites (showing Race Dates/times). Talking about the track.
Another idea I have is if we can get any more sponsor banners, like Top, Hudy, Associated, CRC, etc... and put those up in the windows as well. Make it flashy, colorful, and fun looking. Like people actually race here. Make it look fun and catch peoples eyes.
The Track Specific banners: (ideas)
1.
Colorado's Premiere Indoor R/C On-road Race Club
Check us out on the web at CORRC.ORG
(we could also just take that wind blown banner above the front door and use that)
2.
Largest Indoor On-road Race Track in Colorado!
Open to all Skill Levels, Open to the Public
Come in and Check it out.
I realize the net result of this wont pull in masses of new drivers, but what it will do is make the track look more professional, Organized, and open. If we get one curious person or father who is like "Wow thats cool" and they get serious about racing... it's worth it to the club. And if we don't, the track still looks better to visitors.
Another idea I was pondering is a "What to go racing? Here is what you need:" basic suggestion/info sheet for people who stop by. With some basic ideas on costs so people know what it's all about if they need that info.
I am open to ideas and suggestions on the message. Some of the graphics, and styling that Arts wife implemented on the MHIC shirts would definitely rock to get into these. Art would you or her be interested in helping?
I am all for funding, helping design, and installing these, but I definitely need help with the design and message.
