Indoors?

I would think that if the weather permits outdoors and if bad then indoors but don't quote me on that.

Plan is to run it on the outdoor track. If the weather gets nasty for some reason, we can run it on the indoor track. But at that time of year, I hope to see good temps, sunshine and perfect race weather.

Guys, will there be a limit on entries for this race? Thanks. Looks good and plenty time to make plans.

I do not anticipate a cut off, we can run 300+ entries through in a full day of racing. Plus if it goes into the night, we have one of the best outdoor lighting set ups of any track you will ever visit.

Did you come to the ROAR Regional back in 2008 by chance? We had a large group of guys from WI come to the event that year. Was a fricken blast! New track, new facility, but still the same two guys putting the event on.

Thanks for the info. If that race in 2008 was held at Battle Creek if I'm not mistaken. Then Yes I was there with the WI guys. I would beleive the same group will be going again.

Your right thank you on that. Yes I was one of those Wi guys that raced that race. I was just starting to get back into racing R/C cars again after a 10 year beak. That was my first big race plus Roar event. That was a lot of fun. I beleive it was real hot that weekend. I came in second last in the last heat of mod buggy. lol very nice track. This time I'm not looking at take second last. But I'm looking at having a lot of fun.

Awesome, I thought that B4wires2 looked familiar. Will be great to see you guys out again. Yes, the last ROAR race we had up here was one of the best I have ever been to. Tons of fun and lots of great racing.

Lots of things have changed in the last couple years. Mostly just the new track, still the same people involved in most of it. Uncle E and I were the two who ran the last ROAR race. Since then, Uncle E purchased a new facility and has made it into one of the nicest tracks you will ever get to visit. I have attached a few images of the indoor and outdoor driver stands and tracks, and also the huge indoor pit area. Going to be a great time.

If you guys need anything, just let me know. Happy to help out with anything I can.

Thanks for the reply. What would be a must have tire for the track? 2wd buggy and short bus. Also maybe 4wd short bus.. thanks again guys looking forward to this. Typical roar entry fees I assume?
