Yeah, I'm not even sure what I'm going to do yet. LOL


Normal proline tires work, too.

Track is open in the morning, sign up starts at 11 and racing starts at noon.

Three heats then mains. We've been done around the 7-7:30 range. Turnout is usually down to a C-main in Truggy and B or C main in Buggy. Only a handful of guys race monster truck and we have a beginner class for the kids.

I would have tried to come up on Sunday but I forgot I was changing shifts at work. Doh!!

So what does the weather predictions look like for this weekend? And what time will the track open on Friday? We have 4 maybe 5 from the Hutch, KS area, then 2-3 from the Wichita area. That's all I know of anyway. Can't wait.

Thanx
chris

Alex, are you going for a major layout change? Or, sticking with a lot of what we have? Just curious.. the more change the better IMO..

Track is halfway done. Taking a little break right now.

I actually could use some help tonight to move the pit lane. That thing is heavy!

Can you Please change the layout so an electric 1/8 buggy won't dump on the last lap?

haha.. nice!

I had some fluked batteries. SMC has hooked me up.. so, don't worry. Besides.. typical electric races have triple 10 minute mains.
