I was curious about Canby and going there to practice.What days are they open and how much $ and do they have tables, is the power just connected to the drivers stand area.Just a few questions for you all.Does anybody go there to practice?I will probably just go to Lazy M but was still curious!

If you go to the A-Main site (http://www.amainraceway.com) you will notice that have 1/10 nitro and electric racing on Sundays. I presume this means every Sunday at Canby.

I'm pretty sure they haven't nailed down anything for practice or future races out at Pat's Acres yet. Something about insurance. I was hoping there'd be some club races out there, but looks like I'll probably be making the haul up to C & C for a while.

I spoke to Tim about it last night - he's trying to negotiate a few club races out at Pat's this summer, but doesn't want to jeapordize being able to hold the Summer Rage out there. Practice doesn't sound likely. I've heard a rumor that A-Main simply doesn't have the manpower to maintain the track or take monitor activities on a weekely basis. If we could get a crew together, maybe something could change?
Pat - Were you the guy with the RC10GT up at CnC for the Race for Independence?

Well thats too bad as I think it looks like a real fun track.I would be into helping out at the track,like cleaning or sweeping,watering whatever if there was a group that got together.
I might have been the guy with the RC10GT or was there more than one hhmmm.Not sure but yes I was there and I did have alot of fun even though my car had ice skates on instead of tires.The main problem I had was I should have placed myself on the left side of the drivers stand so I could see the little double next to it instead of crashing every other lap there.

Word. I actually flew blind through there a good deal of the time as arms and radios kept getting in the way. Did ok with it, though. The Revo seems to absorb the mistakes a little better than the smaller cars.
