Haven't' run at TQ, but the Sweeps are pretty amazing on black carpet,,,,

Hi Jay,

Really, as in the V4's? Credit to Sweep as they keep working on their tire design even with it's problems on asphalt. I will have to try them at TQ thanks!

'Cuda won't want them, they are a little more twitchy than pits on carpet

For those of you that have already qualified for the F1 class, you can head over here: Permanent F1 Driver Numbers | UF1 RC | UF1 RC - Formula 1 RC Racing to grab your permanent F1 number. This form will also gather your additional info for the UF1 Super License (F1 Class License).

Don't forget, the next UF1 Formula 1 Class qualifier is August 26th at Cal Raceway; a mere 2 weeks away!!!

Great idea. That will go a long way in building a spectator and fan following. Being able to pick a car number to follow race-to-race is a good thing. Anyone selecting '43', you know I'll be a-rootin for ya.

Cheers. AC

Sadly, I have work scheduled for this day.
After reviewing qualifying session one times F2 is probably the right place for me anyhow.
For the guy's wondering if there is going to be a decent F2 turnout, I'll be there 'til the end.

Yeah, these guys are quick.

Seems like there's going to be a competitive F2 class too....

F2 class could have some guys faster than some F1 class guys if they don't make it to qualifying day?
Unless when the known name guys do get there and they haven't qualified, somehow we can just know they can drive the wheels off an F1 car?
I know some that want to run UF1 but won't be at the qualifier day.
Just throwin that out there
