Default After 5 years the backyard track is open.

The backyard track is open!!! Practice on Thursday's and Friday's 4-9 pm. Race day on Saturdays. Practice 10am-11:45am. Racing at 12pm. We will be running mainly 18th, 16th scale. And maybe a nostalgia class like frogs, grasshoppers, hornets ect. (4 car limit). Also the track has the option for oval racing. Any questions or suggestions call or come by the shop.

Oh my SC18 got something for you buddy!!!! Lets play!!


Ok there is a very realistic possibility we will have to cancel the Test N Tune for 5/20 at Action. I am having issues with the lap counter. I am waiting from a response from the manufacturer and software developer. I will keep you informed as much as I can. I will make a decision by thursday as to not jam up anyones weekend. Sorry for any inconvienence this might cause.

wow, I can remember racing my kyosho optima in that backyard back around 1986-87. Brings back memories, and the lap counting system back then was pretty impressive.

Heads up to the VTA, TCS Mini, and 17.5 Blinky TC guys. Jackson is running a trophy race on 05/26/12.

John,
If it's out of line to post this, please let me know and I'll pull it down, but I don't see it conflicting with your schedule so I figure it'd be all good.

Yes. The track will be wheel chair accessible, but the "facilities" are up the stairs.

Hey guys, what is the gearing for the TT-01 at the beach? I know we had these geared up for Slowbirds and want to change back.

Thanks,

Jeff
