Question for F1- locally down there they run rubber tires. At the region race this weekend it is open tires (foams). Region race also has open motors for F1 - what motors are allowed. On WGT can we have open tires? the only time I run spec is this weekend at the regional otherwise I use Purple and pinks?

We will work with racers to try and get everyone on the same page for some of the special classes. Already had a couple emails from racers in Plant City wanting to run maybe the RCGT class - cool for sure. We have a few weeks to get it worked out. Thanks guys!

Hello racers! Got emails from about 6 cars now wanting to run some RCGT! From here and the other coast - awesome!!!

Also note our new entry special. Pay for 1 class and race all others FREE - and for both days. This will be great for the ones wanting to stay and do both road and oval or run multiple classes and save some bucks. Looking forward to a big crowd at Minnreg next month.

Spread the word - the more the merrier for sure!
