I would like to say thanks to all the people that put this race together, man it was a fun race day.
I didn't finish that good but I did go home with the Orion 3600 25c battery so its all good.

Well we went out there looking to run with those IGT cars but none showed up was looking to size up those cars and see how good they were,but I still be out on a prowl when ever they get mentioned to run a race, Thanks CB for having us race since there was only three of us we had our fun so if they call out again to one of your races please let me know I'll be there if I don't have other things scheduled.

Bad IGT ers

Eeyan, youy live somewhere off the side of the road? J/K,,, I know what you mean. Seems like it takes 5 minutes just to get to the main road. Would of been better if you could of joined in on the action.

I'm sorry to have missed out on this as well. eeyan, you have little excuse being so close! Oh, except for the $10 fee just to get in.

I also hope there's a next time!

I know its out of OC Circuits control, but it was 10 bucks a person, not 10 bucks a car. Good thing my friends/family didn't come to watch.

Unfortunately that sounds like par for the course with Milestone. I hope they treat the RC guys better than they have the dirt bike guys. I know of a few that will not go back becuase of management

$10 wasn't that bad,
I'm sure the owners of the place have to pay there bills too.
so it was $30 to race Sunday, if you go to a JBRL race they charge $30 just to race. so STOP COMPLAINING.
it was a dirt bike track first and then the R/C track was put in so if they want to charge $10 just to watch o well pay it or go home.

10 dollars wasn't that bad, 30 bucks total to race that day thats alright.

but if my wife, & 3 kids wanted to come watch that would be 70 bucks for that day.

Rusty, when it is just your entry it isn't too bad, your right! Now look at it from teabag's point of view. Which is my same sentiment! Besides, how will your family feel about paying $10 each to come watch, just to watch?

P.S. I don't go to JBRL to race anymore. BTW, Reedy was closer to $700 in case your wondering.

I feel you man. I went on Saturday and paid for an overnighter for me and my family. Sunday morning Larry Cross walked up to me and told me I had to pay again. When I told him I had paid for the overnighter, his response was that I still had to pay for the day. I paid for 24 hour stay I thought only to find myself going back to pay again. This nickel and dime stuff won't work for me. Eventaully I paid 3 times to be able to race. Why??? I am still asking myself why?

If we aren't going to use the insurance that they provide for the motorcycles we shouldn't have to pay the same fee. Charlie has his own insurance as well as some of us having ROAR. If we are trying to get more spectators, charging them $10 to watch doesn't help the cause. This is the first time I've heard of people paying to watch an R/C race. I do pay to go to RCX/iHobby and other events but this is not like those events.
