Thanks Joel. I seen them on the site and was going to post them this morning but ya beat me to it.

Remember there is a really big elevated boomerang turn opposite the Big table. You are driving up hill towards the driverstand.

I also made a mistake in the title of this thread... It's the 9th Annual East Coast Race Against Cancer. For some reason I don't have my shirt from last year and the most recent one I have is from the 7th annual... Sorry for the mistake on that one.

Our Annual Race for the Cure's practice is exactly 1 week away. Practice firday, 4 Qualifiers saturday, and Mains sunday. Depending on how big it gets, I'd imagine that they would run some lower mains on saturday night... As to have guys back on the road home at a decent time on sunday.

I would expect alot of suprises in the raffle this year. Anthony Mazzara has said, earlier in the thread, that he will donate his Losi 8ight 2.0 to the raffle Again!!! There will also be kits, engines, and on down the line.

Great Times by Great People for a Greater Cause.

Don't forget that you can camp right there on the grounds, big camp fire and a great time to be had by all.

Don't forget the modified beverage consumption after practice and qualifying. One could only hope that noone wakes up in the creek this year.

Someone literally woke up with the majority of himself IN the creek a few years back.

I can't wait for next weekend. This years race is going to be awesome. I've heard there is going to be a really good electric turnout as well as the always good nitro turnout

Dane- It depends on how late Doug plans to run the practice whether or not I get any on Friday. I'll atleast come out and get set up...

Marsh- Electric seems to be making the old school comeback.

I don't have a clue. Check with Doug or Rosie when you get there. There hasn't been much electric this summer, but after the show you guys put on this weekend I'll bet it picks up. It seems ALL of the electric classes will get a huge boost this weekend from what I'm seeing and hearing.

Anthony- it looks like I am in for Escale along with Nitroscale...

I just saw on the mccullough's forum that you Will need tables/tents/chairs this year. Doug said he might not have the large tents this year.

I'm guessing holeshots, double d's, x-2 or 3000's for tires. Last time I was there I ran holeshots.

The electric classes are looking good for this year's race. There is a list on the mccullough's forum of just the 2wd entries that are for sure and there is 15 people for just 2wd, and I would imagine most of them will also run 4wd and truck.

Can't wait 2 days till practice
