sorry NC...possible CA and NY...SWEEET

the best thing about a event with this many VTA racers, the A-main will be just as good and exciting as the J-main...every racer will have somebody with the same skill level and experience...many races within races

I did some rough numbers on entries and this is what I came up with

56...50-70 VTA
10...10-20 Jr VTA
28...30-40 USGT
15...10-20 12th scale
25....20-30 TC

134 possible entries....WOW!!!!

Lets get those entries in and blow this event into the 150 range....

That is the same thing that's happening to me too. RCsignup will not send me a confirmation email for me to finish registration either! Maybe they have reached the maximum number (10 million) registered racers

you can still send in your entry with one of the cool flyers made by Kent Ball and Evan Williams

And still make top 50 in VTA with the discount by August 1st...but time and space is ticking

flyers below

most of us are running HPI Xpatterns, d-compound, some on Tamiya's...I run X-patterns.

as far as bodies...No two the same...Volvo,Mustang,Vettes,Camaro,Nissans,Lexus.. .just pick...and more... RJ ran the Toyota MRS last year I think and won, while Donald ran Mazda RX8 and TQ'd , and I ran the NSX(I TQ'd too...lol)

as long as they are within the rules Im okay with them...just dont get to close to the line with weird bodies that may not be approved..

USGT,
GT style bodies ONLY, No LMR or any similar types( no big 12th scale bodies ), NO SLICKS

AUG 1st is right around the corner....that is the deadline for the $10 off for VTA class.

If you have signed up and not paid, please do so asap. Remember PAID entries only get the $10 off , making your entry only $25 for one of the largest USVTA events you will ever attend. Thats only $5 more than our regular club races.

If you sign up and pay for VTA, your 2nd class is still $15, for a total of $40. Thats the best deal going in an event this size.

We have around 20 sponsors that are sending some great gifts and not including my shopping spree for the event.

We have food and drinks for the event thats FREE for paid racers

Nice host hotel in Sleep Inn for only $49. a night for double queen

Super nice event shirts with detail and choice of colors for only $20

Ive cut alot of cost to make sure we pack the house...we had 96 entries last year...and we are more than on our way to top that...

below we have two flyers done by Kent and Evan, with new sponsors on them and of course rcsignups

http://events.rcsignup.com/events/di...nt.cfm?ID=2749


GET THOSE ENTRIES IN !!!!!! YOU DONT WANT TO MISS OUT ON THE EVENT THAT HAS EARNED THE RIGHT TO BE CALLED A "THE ONE NOT TO MISS"
Thank you all for the support and cya soon

Have you checked out the RIDE tires we used yet to say if they are ok or not?

And your right, Kyosho's Toyota MR-S GT300, the HPI version of it works good too but it doesn't look anywhere near as good.
