Just to update you guys. The hotels listed. The Townplace Suites is .3 mile from the track .

The Days Inn is about 2.5 miles from the track and the Hampton is is about 3 miles from the track.

All are decent hotels from what I can tell.

Its great to have Middle River Hobbies as the hobby shop. They have tons of good stuff. Hopefully they can fit it all in the trailer.

So how are qualifying heats going to be setup? at the asphalt onroad nats in Jackson it was luck of the draw? I drew and I lost. I hope they set them up in the way IIC does it with the 3 fastest laps strung together. This time failure will be my own faults and not the 7 year olds that took me out every time I came to lap him.

Jake is talking about this new announcement from roar about trinity d3.5 motors.

http://www.roarracing.com/?p=1842

Trust me - the folks running this race (Al, Larry, myself) have the same personal motor problems now as everyone planning on coming to the event and run a 17.5 motor class. If you could only see my pit box...

We will have to ask ROAR. We will get an answer in a few... I suspect this d3.5 thing mike keep them "occupied" for a bit.
