Default 2012 Summer Series at the Plex

We're getting close for what will be an epic year at The Plex!

Here is the flyer for the Summer Series. Mark those dates, get them off of work, play hooky, whatever you have to do. Be there!

Getting closer to start of the 2012 SS. So, I figured I better update my signature. I know there are a lot of new buggys out there, including mine, since I won the last SS with a CR. I planning on bringing it this year and becoming the first back-to-back Champion

Typo on the poster? Is it supposed to be April 7th and 8th?

Also, if I gear up late, can I still participate and just not accumulate points?

The 7th is the electric SS, and the nitro SS was moved from the 8th to the 1st because of Easter.

2011 was skipped due to construction. You won 2009 and Alex won 2008. If there was a 2006, I wasn't around and can't say who won that one (Alex or Matt?).

I hear you, Brian! And now they're saying one of the ingredients in Mountain Dew contributes to memory loss. Between all the Dew and Team Meetings I'm going to be in big trouble as continue to get older.

You can race all year long. If you miss too many drops you won't accumulate points.

Maybe you could get Beardmore's band to play instead of a soundtrack. I'm thinking a strobe light would make practice a little more challenging. It would say your serious about racing but like to party, kinda like a tuxedo t-shirt.


But seriously, how much is paid practice again?

This looks like a cool deal, maybe something to think about?
