It was fun. Between the mosquito's, tight track, and the kid next to me poking me in the eye with his antenna, i'm surprised I did as well as I did.

Default nitro in st.paul area?

I've got a chance to come up that way in October or November for meetings - are there any good nitro tracks or races in the area during these two months? Details please - i've never been to minnesota before.

October you may gave a chance at running a parking lot race or two at Hobbytown in Minnetonka Weds nights. I heard they were running till about mid month. They also run a good program in richfield on Sunday afternoons. Hobbywarehouse in richfield MN. may be a good contact for that. In November it will be very unlikely you will find any outdoor venues running. Just gets a little to cold.

Now if you want to run electric on or off-road you can check out http//:twincityhobby.com

cool - thanks for quick response G-main. Only electric I run is F-1 and I didn't see that class running anywhere up there. I sold or traded all my sedan stuff this week. I may pick up a knife though if I can find a good deal.

12th scale is a strong class, sorry no f-1 hpi micro's on Thursdays is the latest rage. I would think you could travell pretty light if you running 12th. If your thinking about the Knife you may consider the 6-pack. T-bar cars don't tweak as easy.
