We're moving to Saturdays this year. No Sundays are scheduled.

AMB transponders will not work with our Trackmate system.

4wd buggy will be mod this year instead of 13.5.

I see there are new ilaps trackmate compatable transponders on eBay for $20-25. Any knowledge if they will work?

Yep, Saturdays! While we knew there would probably be some that couldn't make Saturdays, the majority of people I talked to said they preferred it.

Sounds like the track materials will come out of their winter hibernation later this week or next week, so we're getting VERY close to some sweet outdoor astroturf ACTION!!!

Here's a video from last year, which was featured on websites like LiveRC and RC Car Action, to wet your whistle!

It looks like progress is being made on the track. I see the carpet has been laid out and drying off from last nights rain.

Looks like it may be a different kind of set-up. With the drivers stand on the other end. Nice.
