Correct. That particular subject belongs in the courts. This is an RC forum and we should keep it that way.

Just want to see the man race, his personal life is not my business.

Wow 15 cars - That's going to be busy and loud in the pits. Are hockey sticks allowed in the pits? So my pit man can slash my shins when he wants me to pit. LOL

I see Adrien Bertin on the updated list. If he does make it, it will certainly add one more podium contender.

In two weeks we will all know for sure.

We had a good work party at Homestead RC Raceway this weekend. The track has been freshly striped for the upcoming World Championship. The drivers stand and hot pit tables have been pressure cleaned and painted. A bunch of tables were built so that each covered pit area will have their own engine tuning table. The whole area has been cleaned and clutter removed.
The whole facility is starting to shape up for this fantastic event.

A big thank you to Ray Schneider, David Duperrouzel, Joe Chin, Duncan Chin, Larry Ferrante, howard Stamen and Thomas Nicholson for all your efforts this weekend.

Here is a picture taken from the bleachers as the sun began to go down.
