Electric classes we will see what happens at each event but as of now there is no set classes to run them.. I will make a class for them if there is enough but it depends on each event and track..
Further more who are you Mtune setting behind the keyboard dont think I know who you are.. feel me in please.. you seem to be stering the pot on a few forms.

Give em Hell Clint- Electrics are cool on light turnouts, I just hope were not gonna cut any nitro mains short for additional electric classes- Slash was fun to watch last year but ......especially since the value of our race programs and facilities are under scrutiny

Hey guys....the track is not complete as of date...I have all the pipe ready to go...I have a design done on a CAD program (and NO you dont get to see the design ahead of time!!!) 
I have a 550 dozer lined up, a 763 bobcat (skidsteer) lined up..drivers stand is being built..everything is coming together, just need to get more dirt!!! I have already used about 150 cubic yards for the base, now I am just waiting to build the features. Track will be approximately 140' straight..approx. 90' deep....with the back 25'-30' on an incline
I plan on having some good elevation changes along with a couple of other "fun" features!! I look forward to hosting Round 1 and hope you all enjoy the facility I have been working on!!!

Hey Mike, no seriously, what are the parameters? I finished 6th in sportsman truggy last season and way down in the pack for buggy. I certainly don't want to sandbag but I do question whether I'm fast enough to run PRO. My gear is good but I had Tunnel hand my ass to me with a borrowed car tues night and I know I'm still no where consistant enough. Really this is a serious question. Will there be provisions in the first round to Bump up If say I sign up as sportsman and run too fast? Not that I think I'd dominate (hell I might not even finish) I just don't want to drive all over oregon and get lapped 10 times in a main cause I was shamed into running above my ability. I know RD's typically bump drivers out of Novice when they feel their ready, Is this decision subjective or ?

I get it for bumping up if you win sportsman, for instance Dino has to run pro this season with his finish last year. I was just looking for some clarification. I get running with faster guys makes you faster, I just don't want to spend all season getting lapped all the time. I don't have a problem steppin up when I'm ready, just not sure if If I am, I'll work it out with Clint. I've never placed in a National event , I was lucky to make an A last season with my truggy and don't remember an A with my buggy so thanks for the imput
