Thanks Guys,
Yes , we got a TCS date , we have been working behind the scenes to bring this tradition back to the Maryland area. This is also in conjunction with the Original team that brought TCS to Maryland back in 1995, HobbyWorks will be our associate store for TCS..as some may recall, Mike Brey( owner of HobbyWorks ) and I hosted the series starting in 1995.. wow.. so long ago.. We are Happy to have it back.

SlowBirds !-
Yes, We announcd the Slowbirds a while ago... Several months ago I connected with John Brown owner ( Brownies Hobbies ) , Al Sadano ( former Horsham and current Jackson RC ) and Ray Murray ( for the Music ! ) We all agreed to carry on the Slowbirds Tradition..and that we will , look for unique announcements coming soon for this race ...It will be Different for sure.

Thanks to all that are supporting 180 Raceway, we appreciate it..
see you at the track

Carl,
I does appear they choose Jan 28th, initially while in discussions with Tamiya ,that date was open ( minus the California date of jan 29 ) that is why we committed to that date for Slowbirds

I have discussed this with some of the Slowbirds steering committee, and since that 28th is a Sat.. and some folks that travel couldn't make that date anyway, we decided to keep the Slowbirds on the Original date we announced a few months ago..

That said, would enjoy having you and the boys come down for some Saturday and Sunday running... The Slowbird event day is the 29th ( sunday )

Saturday the 28th is our normal race day and Slowbird warmup day

Hey guys,

Slowbirds question - USVTA - are we going to run USVTA rules (Roar 25.5 -1450g, etc.) or is it a 'mid-atlantic twist' VTA?

F1 - 25.5 motors - I guess we call that UF1 rules now? Is there a spec tire for F1?

Thanks!
