HotShotRC Offroad Racing Wednesday Nights Survey
 

Taking a poll here for interest in Offroad Racing on Wednesday Nights 8pm at HotShotRC Raceway.

We currently have Onroad racing every Wednesday night. If we decide to go to a large offroad track that means Wed Night Racing on the offroad track.

So my question is WHO will be coming and HOW OFTEN will you come race on Wednesdays within a month? Let's keep it clean here ! And thanks for taking the survey.

I could probably make it once or twice a month.

I could do once a month since it's a work night.

If we did qualifying fast enough I could do 1-2 times a month, maybe more depending on my thursday am meetings

If we can get out of there by midnight I would probably do 3-4 times a month.

I could be there 4 times a month if it starts at 8 and ends by midnight.

Still 10th scale only?

Love the idea. I'd shoot for once a month (in addition to the Fridays I can make with my sons). My problem is coming from Suwanee...makes for a long day. However would try to support the track as much as time and family allows. Just glad we have places to race.

1/10 only or 1/8 Ebuggy also??
 

I would make a few each month if 1/8 Ebuggies were permitted!!

Will be there every WED possible boss!!!!! 3 times a month!

I am always there unless I am traveling. Count me in.

Mini Pro Truggy for the win!

Brad my feelings are that more or rather different questions need to be asked here, to get where you are going or thinking.

Those that are looking to do some off-road racing on Wednesday nights.... that is the question posed, is that in add to their Friday or Saturday racing? If they are only going to move from racing on Friday or Saturday to the Wednesday night racing then that will dilute the current turn out with no net gain.

I think one way to counter act this would be to have a series. This series would be taking your best main each week and run it for 6 weeks... compiling points from their best single weekly results. This would allow racers to run an additional day during the week, to post their best time. If they run earlier in the week (Wed) and they think they got the best run for the week, they may not race the rest of the week. However, If their results were not good in the Wednesday main then they can come back Fri and/or Sat to try and improve their week's result. You could pose the strategy for racing Wed nights would be if turnout is low then that could equal a clean run but less traction. Where as Friday and/or Sat would be more traffic with max traction.

Another idea, try to come up with better ideas to reward middle of the pack guys to keep them interested in the series. Rewards for most improved over 6 weeks or most consistent under 26 laps, something along those lines.

if I may...am I reading this correctly?...are you guys considering doing away your on-road program/track?

It's sad to say but yes.

I'm curious about this too. With mention of a larger off-road track there really isn't much room other than cutting into on-road. As much as I love on-road, 1/8th ebuggy is my favorite and I'd run that at least twice a month if the track was that large. Never enjoyed 1/10 off-road.
