On April 29th Skagit River Raceway's Dirt Oval will host a non points charity oval race to benefit the Alger Food Bank, Races will be run in the same manner as a series #1 race night. It will be a good chance for everybody to get they're cars dialed in and have some fun for a good cause and to be able to mix it up without any points on the line. 100% of the money taken in will go directly to the Alger Food Bank. Amy Berryman has been running this food bank on a voluntary basis on a fairly small budget for 28 years and is currently helping over 300 families in the community. Programs like this are vital to the community. Entry will be $10.00 for Members and $12.00 for non members all of which will go to the foodbank. No money will be accepted for announcing by any of the announcers. We will also be having a raffle and every dollar taken in will go directly to the Food Bank as well. Tickets are $1.00 or an equivalent food item. The support from sponsors for raffle prizes have been amazing. Among the prizes there is a new RC10GT2 Team Kit as well as 6 other kits. A lipo charger, many shirts, hats, parts, nitro fuel, 6 full sets of RC4Less tires, 7 Bodies from McAllister, Its gonna be a great event. We're gonna have 3 time NASCAR champ, Arca Champ and ASA touring champion Gary Lewis making his first attempt at our 1/8th scale Late Model Class. We're gonna have Jim Allahman from Cascade push truck association with his push truck on display that is used in all the local nascar races, touring series and the SIR road courses and various Races all over the NW and does the commitment cone for the various touring series, all the kids should get a great kick out of checking it out with all the sirens and flashing lights. Should be a great event and trust me there are TONS of prizes to be won. Lets raise a good chunk of money for the Alger Foodbank.

Okay, weather permitting, i will be at the track this saturday getting it into shape for the season opener on the 14th...

okay, so i am thinking of doing something to get some help this weekend. if the weather stays nice i say we do maybe a half day of work on the track, then turn people loose with there cars for a little test and tune. we work the track over in the morning and then spend the afternoon playing with the cars, i will be able to set up the computer, test out the loop, cranks up some tunes and have a glorified test and tune in the afternoon, heck we can get some pizzas or something and have some fun while we work and get all the bugs out of the track before the opener on the 14th.

of course all of this is weather permitting...........we all know how this spring weather has been..........

according to weather.com, its not looking super promising for this weekend. that said i hope it changes cause i would love to run around on the track again

monty c

iTrader: (8)

Well, so much for that idea, work party/test and tune for tomorrow is cancelled. Track is soaking wet. Hopefully it gets better this next week...............

mountmadness

is there a race on the this sat.

okay, i spent 2 hours at the track tonight, got alot of the weeds out and smoothed some rought spots. its actually in pretty good shape. so here is the plan for the rest of the week. there are only 3 or 4 spots that are retaining water but they can be swept out.

tomorrow{weds} is suppose to be rain all day so i wont be there, there is no use trying to do anything.

thursday and friday are suppose to be nice so i will be there both nights after 5 pm. i found a couple tools that are great for the weeds and smoothing out the surface. there is some drainage that have been dug that need to be filled and other little things.

saturday is race day and the forecast is for a 50 percent chance of showers. i will know more by friday but as of right now i say the race is on........

cross your fingers and do your no rain dances for saturday.

i will update as the weekend gets closer and the forecast is a little closer........

Not an expert, but perhaps a sun dance might be more effective?
