Scale Spec is probably the most popular. Stock TC and F1 are usually good to go. Mod TC sometimes doesn't have the turnout, but will probably be pretty reliable this summer.

Making my mark here to keep an eye on the schedule. I've heard some rumors of the track moving from Monroe, closer to Seattle, any truth to that?

I would hate to see fasttrax leave its current location of Monroe because its nice to have a track that is close to home for a change. everything always seems to have to be in Tacoma or seattle which sucks. but Edmonds wouldn't be too terrible. I remember when the egtc series was in Edmonds and it was fine.

Cool EGTC's old Esperance Raceway Park

Hey Joe,

Let me know if you need any help getting in at Esperance Park. You'll definitely have to hold a couple of work parties to get the lot back in shape. Last time I stopped by it was over grown and pretty Dirty. The Starting Grid and backstretch lines were still there but would need a touch up...

Hopefully you still have my number, if so give me a call.

Joe has posted dates one page back......

Location should be the same or Joe would have posted. The idea of finding a little bigger location was just that, an idea. Nothing has come of it to my knowledge.

May 31
June 7
June 14 NWAC Fasttrax
August 16
August 30

So, I've been thinking, and I realized that I don't know jack about tire compound on asphalt with regards to ambient temperature changes. I have some SXT 1.0 and 2.0 that I was planning on using, but I'm suddenly thinking that it may work better or worse depending on the asphalt temperature a particular day.

Is there a rule of thumb here? Should I be looking into another sauce too?

the tire compound that I always used to use that worked good from the beginning to the end of the race day no matter the temp were 36's. probably would be a good idea to sauce with paragon fx2 for the first time and used tire tweak for the rest of the day. bake it in for 10 min with warmers or 20 min with out warmers and clean them off 5min before your race.
