What's the traction level at a typical event on this track? Just wondering what chassis plate to equip an Xray T4'15 with if anyone has advice. Thx

Normal days at the track it's medium to good.
Last year at the RR the track crew did an outstanding job of prep and the weather was favorable so we wound up with "fly paper" levels of traction.

What time does racing normally complete on Sunday? Trying to figure out if I can fly out that evening instead of waiting until Monday.

Last year the final race finished about 5pm.
Invite is last so open drivers were finished even earlier.
This year with maybe a few extra heats we might be a little later but will still try to finish around 5pm.

After we have the entry count solidified we will begin working on the schedule.

Default Payment deadline nearing

Reminder
Entry payment is due Sunday night.
Anyone not paid at that time loses their entry and then it goes to a wait list for open slots.
Don't be sorry

Hopefully they will use the black round ones with the white wheels. They seem to work good last year.

Sorex tires would be unreal at Tamiya. Team Powers would be a good alternate to Sorex.

Great performance from Sorex on the first run for sure, but typically a dramatic drop off from there, depending on temperature and track conditions. As a racer, I'd rather have a spec tire that provides decreased performance for increased durability. Last years choice, the Sweep 'Reedy Spec' tire, was consistent, durable and predictable.
