With the new trucks from Xray and PR Racing coming out, I'm thinking about getting back into stadium truck racing. Otherwise I'll have my 2wd SC truck. I'd also love to see a class of 4x4 SCT's since I really didn't get to use mine much before Clark closed.

Tuesdays and Fridays until offroad officially starts. Then back to Tuesdays and Sundays. We had jumps up from Late Tuesday until 6 on Friday and pulled them off for on-road practice. If anyone ever wants jumps, show up and put them down. It's still a full service club.

Supplemental Racing Ideas for fall: 2 heats and a main, or one heat and 2 mains on Thursday or Friday nights. 5 of any type is a class. I know big change over 3 is a class, but it should make for better racing and marshalling. $10 for club members, $2 for an extra class. We can decide on 6 min or 8 minute mains. We'd need to keep to a flowing pace and stick to the clock! Doors open by 5 or so and racing @ 7 sharp and 1 round per hour. Well be finished by 10. I'd like to see rookie (run what ya brung) and then 5 to 7 more heats/races for the hour.
