I can't make the event. However I'm wondering what type of tires are run on the sedans as it is not listed. Is it a foam race or a rubber race?

Snowy.

It's a foam tire race. I'm sure if enough people show interest, just like in the mod class, they would make a rubber class available. From past experience there just is not enough interest in rubber tires around here.

The track is a blast!! (no pun intended ) Barrier system is awesome and very forgiving on the cars; however, the concrete block wall isn't...

See you there!

I agree about the wall I want to draw big teath on it like a sharks mouth. I am hopeful that it will get a little softer down there myself.

This should be a great race though, Hopefully they will do a full schedule like the brl and do the controlled practice by class, that gave you a really good idea of where you where at setup wise since we won't be qualifying on saturday.

Great place and free popcorn though how can you go wrong.

NO

Real racers race with brushed motors!!!!


LOL, I don't see why not, but I guess we better make sure. Other than a few of us, it seems like most people have switched over anyways. We're a dying breed!

TTT.....

Everyone should try to make this one. It will be a good warm up for the USTCC Novak Race. Bring your brushless motors if you're into that. The Novak Race is 100% brushless this year.

you will love the facility from the lap counting system on a 27" lcd, to the scrolling lap times over the far end of the track. And then there is the awesome tire truing / Air gun spot with vacuum. And a great track. Not to mention great sound system, a great hobby shop and awesome people.

You will love, it bring your buds, their is a lot of pits I don't know how many but we had over 100 for our brl race and it wasn't cramped.

Ian,

The whole place is dialed. You will have a good time. What class or classes do you plan on running?
