We could pit like everyone else. Battery swaps don't take that long!

kdeselms - Ya.....we accidentally left off the rookie class but it's back now! That's my favorite class especially at the Reedy Truck Race! Can't wait to see how you do!

MikeGonzo - Due to lack of interst at last years Reedy Truck race and the slow decline of 10th scale gas we decided to offer the class but only as and open class. Not enough racers to support 2 10th scale nitro classes.

Randy_Pike - Unfortunately I can't put an electric truggy in with the nitro's. If enough electric truggys show up I will create a class for them so gather all you friends up and come play!!!

Stay tuned for entry forms which should be posted at www.hotrodhobbies.com by the end of the weekend!

Same here! I'm going back to truck mode as of this weekend, rather than running the J82...need to make sure I'm used to the handling of the truck, when the event rolls around.

After that, it's back to buggy, though. I like that conversion!

By the way Jimmy, your website's down...

It's time to kick off our track design contest for the Reedy Truck Race of Champions! For those of you who have no idea of what I'm talking about here is some info. We are having a contest to see who can design the best track layout for this years Reedy truck Race! The winning track will be used for this years race and the winning designer will get to race as many classes as he or she wants for free plus other special prizes to be mentioned later. Start working on those layouts and remember that the new track goes in on October 12th so we are running out of time!

The track demensions are 140 ft. long by 55 ft.

All layouts mught need to be modified a little to make them fit but don't forget to include jumps and obstacles!

Feel free to send layouts to [email protected] or mail them to:

Czolgosz - Heat races will be 5 minutes long and we will run triple A-mains for the Slash at 5 minutes a piece.

Bob and Ebi - Yes we will have an old dude class which is 40 and over. We will be using super stock rules in the 40+ class this year which means 19 turn brushed or 10.5 brushless. See you guys soon!

Just a few days to go. Looking forward to the race. Alex and I won't be getting there until thursday night because of school obligations with Alex. We'll be up "bright" and early for the friday morning practice session.
