The church next to the track will be offering fried chicken dinners again this year. I want to say it was 7 bucks last year, but worth every penny and even came with a piece of pie! Plus, they delivered.

As a matter of continuity, FSEARA WILL allow the Trinity 3.5 series motors through the rest of the season. We do make variations to the "official" rules in an attempt promote better racing and to try to help advance the hobby.

The motor specs can be addressed in the off season and changes made then.

On a different note, I have decided to step down as the FSEARA director at the end of this season. I'd be willing to continue as asst. director, sell tires, run tech, help with sponsors, raffle, or whatever needed (if that would help anyone else decide to accept) to help the series continue, and grow. If anyone is interested, please contact me with any questions and I'll be glad to discuss.

I have let a few people know, but also want to give whoever might be interested enough time to start getting ready for next year's seasons.
