Fridays would definitely be better than Wednesdays, but it's still a 2 hour drive, probably couldn't get there before 7:00 coming from work.

I hear ya ! Same reasons I cant get up to Excitement on Thursdays. Sundays usually tied up. When is the best day for 2WD out that way? And next trophy race? Mabye we can return the support from here.

All 1/10 electric is Thursday nights, unless it's the winter, then Sunday as well. As for trophy races, we have one on the 18th, but it'll be outdoors (weather providing), so expect mainly 1/8th scale and some short course. The event to make it to is our JConcepts race in September (18-19). It'll be an indoor event with some big names like Paul Sinclair and Brian Kinwald in attendance. More info here.

Yes, usually done after 10, depending on how many show up. It would be awesome to have you guys !
There is no offroad racing on friday currently, but that may be an idea which is tossed around between ONROAD starting or Offroad indoor on Fridays also. I assume you guys would join us if we were able to do offroad on Fridays? The thought was 3 straight up races (no IFMAR qualifying) - Old School.

So how would you determine starting order?

You still have a placement and overall finishing time. That is used for the MAIN.
Sometimes its just nice to have straight up battles when its a short night with one less qualifier. Straight racing for club nights. We've done it before.

Based on the thread Freddy started......there's only about 3 locals interested anyway.

Didn't realize the dates conflicted, I'll be at the RCE for that weekend, been excited for the race since it was announced. Good luck with the vintage race though.

Last year at least three guys told me they found out about the race through the racing forums thread...

I am out too. Have a wedding I have to go to on the 19th.

I think it was my first win outdoors this season. Proctor thermalled and didn't have enough time to catch up. He usually wins every week. 
Just doing some outdoor racing. Weekends are hard for me do to my work schedule. Looked and the vintage race is the only trophy race weekend I have off but already booked for a wedding.
So that means its either indoors on a Wednesday night or outdoors on Friday night. Sorry but I am going to enjoy the nice weather while we have it.

Bad News
OK guys I'm getting out of offroad for a while, I'm not having fun anymore...
I have abunch of stuff for sale, very cheap, RB5 SP Roller $75, Lazer ZX5 SP roller $100, OFNA Hyper 10SC 4wd roller $150 (with brand new calibers all around)
2 Servos, 3 ESCs, 2 lipo batteries, 5 motors, all for really low $$. PM me if you're interested.
I want to get back into 1/12 pan car to keep the costs down and to re-hash the good times I had a few years ago at Lester's indoor carpet track...
Maybe if Mark and John's asphalt racing picks up I'll grab one of whatever they decide on running, but as it is right now, I'm just gonna stick with pan car.
