Default Opening Day on Sunday the 14th

Don't forget that opening day is this Sunday for the offroad. Look for the new jumps and higher traction for this upcoming year. We are going to try a few things to keep the traction higher for this upcoming season. As always we will have the booming kitchen going for all your food needs and a big order for the shop is coming in this week as well. Going to be a good time.

Plus have a new TV in the hobbyshop area so some of the football games will be on as well so you can keep up on all the scores while you race. The kitchen will be like being at the game as you smell all that good to eat stuff.

For SC gold bar codes and Suburb MC and pretty much the same for 2wd buggy. MC Scrubs work well in the front for 2wd buggies.

I bet Mruk would have no problem eating a steak with his fingers.

Our normal classes are:

2wd Mod SC
4wd Mosd SC
2wd Mod buggy
4wd Mod buggy (Not always do guys race this weekly)
Electric 8th scale

Spec SCT (all stock SC truck including stock kit tires, springs etc) plus you can run any RTR brushless SCT and we all 17.5 motors in blinky mode. This is more of a beginner class with newer racers.

You can easily run a 17.5 and if you driver fairly decent you can easily do well in Mod SC as its not a motor track. Some guys still run 17.5 and 13.5 motors in the Mod SC class.

Normal hours:

Mon closed
Tue & Wed offroad practice 4pm to 9pm
Thur & Fri oval practice 4 to 9 and 4 to 8 on Friday.
Sat oval racing with doors opening at 10 racing starting at noon to finish
Sun offroad racing, doors open at 10 racing at noon to finish

Best to check the Bumps and Jumps calendar on the Bumps website as it lists each day of the month from now til April and has all scheduled practice and race times listed

From Trains and Lanes roughly 1 1/2 hour ride or somewhere pretty close to that. Highway for 98% of your trip.
