Another great day of racing this past Sunday.

Had a nice turn out of USGT, 1/12th scale, F1 and VTA cars. Hope to see everyone back at the track again next Sunday,

Haven't been on carpet since the late 90s. Haven't ran anything 4wd in7 years.

So, green car on sticky carpet. I had a great time remembering how to make adjustments (Though I have printed a rough cause and effect cheat sheet to take some of the guesswork out of adjustments) and BSing with established friends and meeting some new ones!

And only busting a rear hub carrier made it a very succesful day!

Default NIB Parma 1/12th scale bodies - $12 each

I picked up a few 1/12th scale bodies for a really good price. No way I can go through as many as I purchased over the course of a season.

10207 - Parma 1/12 EE1 Clear Body .030 (new in the package) - $12 each

PM, email me or stop by my pit at the track if interested.

FYI - Looks like a good day for racing on Sunday. Hope to see everyone at the track

Another great day of racing this past Sunday.

Had a nice turn out of USGT, 1/12th scale, F1 and VTA cars. Some of the gas racers made it to the track for the 1st time this season. Also, the VTA cars were starting to hook up with the new Protoform tires/wheels (HPI stopped making them).

Hope to see everyone back at the track again next Sunday,

Great day of racing this past Sunday, although the weather outside was not so nice .

Had a nice turn out of USGT (2 heats), 1/12th scale, F1 (2 heats) and VTA cars. Some new and familiar faces visited the track for the first time this season.

Hope to see everyone back at the track again next Sunday,

Hey guys,

Looking to run with you guys again soon. Will be running USGT like I used to but also want to pick up an F1. Is the Gravity RC tire still the spec tire for USGT?

Is there a spec tire for F1? If not, what has been working?

Thanks and hope to see you all soon!

Spec tire for USGT is the Ride tires (sold by gravity as loose or premounts). They work well and last a long time - I just retired a set that was built in Dec 2016

F1 is still running the Pit tires. They are sold by CRC, Tamiya and others. Again, they last forever.

See you soon.

Erik, good to see that you post here. I'm the guy that bought the tires from you at Culver's. Just found out about Hobby stop and will definitely be making it there for some practice and hopefully racing eventually!

No racing on Sunday, Dec 31, but they will be open from noon to 4 PM and the track is available for practice. I am coming for that.

They are running 1/12 as the only pan car. They also race VTA, USGT and F1 on Sundays. TC7.1 can be used in the VTA and USGT classes.
