GREAT NEWS! Monti Panzica from BSR Racing is flying down to race both road and oval! Looks like a killer crowd! Rainy season starts in JUNE and it is going to be hot - nothing like indoor action at Minnreg. New road layout this race too!

Do you run a beginner class. I thought i read something about running short course trucks. Also is this track in Largo. Thanks for the help.

Hey guys.. lots of interest! It's going to be some great racing. Not sure about the Slashes... this time around at least haha. Working on some jump for an expo and future race down the road. Road layout might be close to this year's 'birds (few small changes I think). I don't see us having a strickly amateur class this time.

So far looks like a good showing:
17.5 Touring Rubber
13.5 Touring Rubber
13.5 World GT
13.5 1/12th GTP
17.5 RCGT

I have a lot of Jaco Blues for 25 a set (in the bag brand new)...
Epic Sticky Fingers only - We will have plenty at 5 bucks a bottle...
All classes open speedo...
Practice should start Saturday night around 8pm and last ALL NIGHT...
Racing starts Sunday morning at 10:30 with 3 heats and a main...
Working on prices but pretty much same as past (not more)...

Oval talk is on Hobbytalk.com...

cya!
Mike
