Same rules as last year....If you have a chassis, fuel, tire or motor sponsor....You run pro.

We police the qual times in round 1 and bump if the times are within the top 30 in pro.

You will however have fast sportsman guys, nothing wrong with being a fast sportsman but we also will not allow sandbagging.

never had an issue in the past 2 events, not planing on having one this year either.

Rodger that!
Sounds like great rules to me!

Thanks

Thanks

I an not Dave,(thank God)Jk Dave....But my opinion is the Pro class at the PNB is a real Pro class for the factory and sponcered Drivers,however Dave and Ollie stated that if some one is running Pro class times in Sportsman they will be bumped up...........
I am sure Dave or Ollie will be on to have a better clarification.

Hey guys, do not be discouraged to come to our event if you feel like
you are missing out because you cannot make Thursday's practice.
There is plenty of time for practice on Friday up until qualifying.
There is also another practice session between the first round and the
second round.

Another thought - Looking back on the race schedule listed on our
website, take the schedule with a grain of salt. The rounds may take
much longer than indicated. The first round alone may end at one or
two in the morning. Even longer? Also we will know about how long a
round will go based upon entries alone before we start, so we will let
you know at the drivers' meeting so that you can schedule accordingly.

Last, but not least: Because the mains will take a very long time to
complete, and because we do not want people to leave the event at late
night, we MAY push the starting times for the mains earlier into the
morning. Shortening the mains is not an option. You pay for track
time, and that's what you will get. Even if your main starts at 7
am.

Wow awesome, i wonder if we will have any surprise Pro drivers come for the race. This has got to be on their list of races to race!

With this weather there can't be much racing going on outdoors right now! The Gas guys should be Jones'n to race!

I would like to hear Cavaleri, Mayfield, Lutz, Phend, and Drake called out in the A mains!

I just did a search on the internet, i typed in "Top Rc Racers in America"... I got nothing. There is a lack of media coverage for this type of thing. I am surprised RC is as big as it is.

PNB is setting the bar for media coverage and HYPE!

Lutz, truhe, Drake, and degani will be there for sure. Most likely a suprise pro will come. It's gotten bigger every year.

I remember meeting Lutz there last year. SUPER nice guy, never got a chance to talk to Drake or Truhe though. Maybe this year? I'll be covering the race to some degree on my blog. So I'll try and do some sort of write up, but will more than likely just be pictures.

My money is on Tebo, he was at the Wiregrass last year so why not the PNB this year?

OHHH, forgot Tebo, I would like to see him race for sure. Dude is good!

I just looked at the roster and i don't see Adam Drake signed up? I am sure he has a "spot" when he shows...
