if it hasnt changed from original plan...yes...along with VTA.

Anyone going to be there this weekend running VTA?

bmr 07-14-2008 08:12 PM

I'll be there with VTA, TC, F-1 6 cell, and mini.

I'll most likely pick only two classes.

F-1 Top Gun is 6 cell, yes?

Flying Monkey 07-14-2008 08:38 PM

Ok I plan on being there this weekend to attempt to put some laps in with the VTA...first time with it so try not to laugh too hard please.

Flying Monkey 07-16-2008 10:22 AM

so just the 2 of us? seems everyone else is goign to the bowl. I have the opportunity to go to PT or the bowl this weekend.....stay home and go to pt....go to father in laws and go to the bowl.....hmmm what to do what to do. Either way I need to put laps down with my VTA.

FordGT40 07-16-2008 11:59 AM

I wish I could be there this weekend for VTA but I will be in Birmingham for the Rolex Grand Am race. I will be there on the 27th though with touring car and VTA. Tommy may have to reschedule the Top Gun this weekend if everyone is going to the bowl.

Flying Monkey 07-16-2008 12:47 PM

arg

ChadRacing 07-16-2008 03:26 PM

go to PT...i will be there :)

Randy Nukem 07-16-2008 06:32 PM

Same here Randy, it will be the 27th before I make it back down. Seems like forever since I've run.

nicholas cline 07-16-2008 06:32 PM

Im still debating whether im going to the top gun race or the sugar bowl. I dont want there to be a sad turnout at pt and the race gets called again. I wonder if anyone would be up for postponing it a week since most everyone will be at the bowl?

Flying Monkey 07-16-2008 07:07 PM

Next week is the VTA top gun....thats why I have to put some laps in this weekend....I dont have a chance for the top gun but gonna run in it anyway. But want SOME time under my belt first lol

FordGT40 07-16-2008 07:23 PM

I think Monkey is sandbagging us guys! He will probably show up and steal the Top Gun trophy in his debut.:) Tommy would probably be willing to adjust the schedule if he needed to on the Nitro and F1 Top Gun race. From what he told me, he didn't know after the rain out last week that so many people were going to the Bowl this weekend. I know he would like to have a big turnout for the trophy races. Between the weather and everyone's schedule it seems like it's darn near impossible to run a race anymore!:flaming: I can't make it this Sunday so Snoopy if you go maybe you could tape the races again and post them. I'd love to at least see what I missed. I may go down sometime Saturday for some practice at least.

Think about it this way, postponing it a week can give you an extra weekend of practice. But i can understand if your ready to compete.

Flying Monkey 07-16-2008 07:47 PM

I cant be down the next weekend (Aug 3rd)...my wife works battlefield raceway every other weekend and that is her weekend to work it. Plus Aug 3rd is the first race of the off road series. I dont expect PT to change the schedule for me tho. But any of your off road guys (electric and nitro) quite possibly be running in the series race, since they did set up for a "run what ya brung" electric class.

bmr 07-17-2008 03:43 PM

I can race the next two Sundays but I don't want to try and run three Top Gun classes on the same day.

If we knew if it were a 4cell or 6cell race the F-1 turnout would be better. :confused:

I am going downstairs to finish my 6 cell F-1 now. If I guessed wrong figure -1 on the turnout.

*goes to check series thread*

ChadRacing 07-17-2008 05:09 PM

Tommy never stated if it was 4 or 6 cell wish i knew also

Flying Monkey 07-18-2008 05:31 PM

Will anyone have time there to help me with set up and stuff if i can make it down sunday? I know the top gun race for the other class will be going on so I dont want to take away from anyones needed time. but if someone wil have time to help me with set up and stuff Id greatly appreciate it being my first on road car.

Flying Monkey 07-19-2008 12:05 PM

Welp dont look like Im going to make it. Working this weekend. :cry: Ill still try to pull an all nighter to come down there but not looking good for the home team.:flaming:

ChadRacing 07-19-2008 01:29 PM

if you do make it out i will help you out monkey

Flying Monkey 07-19-2008 04:08 PM

what time does it all start?

ChadRacing 07-19-2008 04:32 PM

racing should start at one

FordGT40 07-21-2008 07:52 AM

Were there enough people to race yesterday? I hope there were.

K_Spec_RC 07-21-2008 09:55 AM

When I talked to Chad, he said there were 2 F1's and 3 nitro touring. Tommy didn't want to run them I guess... :confused: The VTA/Mini Top Gun race is next week right? I hope we dont see the same result of the past 2 weeks...

Didnt WANT to run them? Didnt realize there was a min. number of entries. didnt see it posted in the original thread. Boy I hope that dont happen for the VTA. With what it will cost me in gas just to drive there will really piss me off not to be able to run a top gun race I drive all the way there for.

FordGT40 07-21-2008 12:27 PM

I will be there this Sunday (God willing) running VTA and Touring. I hope a whole lot of Trans Am cars will be there. I don't really care about the trophies because I know I won't win one but I would love to see a huge field. I might as well bring the Mini too. If everyone who has a VTA car in this area shows up, we could have a nice crowd. Hopefully, everyone can make it.

hairy 07-21-2008 12:32 PM

mini and 12th roll call

shadow102 07-21-2008 01:12 PM

yeah i know there is going to be at least 6-7 VTA cars up there AT LEAST so you can expect that race to go well.

Flying Monkey 07-21-2008 02:34 PM

I plan on being there hell or high water.

bmr 07-21-2008 02:57 PM

I was there and I didn't want to run against one other car either. It is a shame that The Bowl was preferred over the Top Gun race. I know... I know.... got to run The Bowl before it closes... I have been hearing that for the all of the 3+ years I have been in the area. :D

I plan on being there again this week for VTA and TC. I will pull out the mini if it will help fill the class. I have an extra mini if anyone wants to run it.

If anyone in the Chattanooga/Ringgold area is up for car pooling send me a PM. My Explorer transmission finally took a crap. I can't fit much in my TA so I would be glad to hitch a ride and pay my share of the gas bill.

Thanks Chad, you stole my line. :lol: :lol: :lol:

snoopyrc 07-21-2008 09:08 PM

What's up Snoopy? Why the disgust? I know there has been a "NUMBER of issues" that have come up in this class but you know how that stuff plays out on the forum. We need you (and your camera) in this stuff! By the way-look what I found at the Rolex Grand Am race sunday in Birmingham.

Randy Nukem 07-22-2008 06:54 AM

Dang Randy cool pic, I saw a red GT40 in chattanooga yesterday. Awsome cars. I feel the same as you, forum stuff is always silly. I'd never let it keep me from racing when I want, now the weather on the other hand. I just hope its a good forcast for sunday.

shadow102 07-22-2008 07:01 AM

30% chance of isolated thunderstorms...which means 70% that there will be sunny skies ready for racing
