Racers, if any of you have or know someone who has Motorama tickets and is interested in selling them, please let me know. I unfortunately missed the deadline and I'm looking for an opportunity to attend. I'm looking for any of the following: 2wd Mod, 4wd Mod, eBuggy or eTruggy. Thanks.

No spots are opening.

I can do a class switch with limitations.
You can NOT go from big track to small track.

I remember hearing alot of people saying the 1/10 track was rough as rough can be. I even remember hearing the event nick named Moglrama. I did go and watch some YouTube vids and seen how rough it was. Are steps gonna be taken to keep that to a minimum this year?

From what I understand the clay was frozen (single digit temps all week) and didn't thaw in the short time they had to build the track. They were saying it was like trying mold a block of ice.

Plus I'm pretty sure it had a lot of snow fall on it the day before it was brought in the building also. The big track was good because they used existing dirt that was inside and shaped it into the track but the 1/10 side was brought in from outside

The issue last year was that the clay was too wet to be rolled. The roller would just sink down to the cement. That was caused by all the snow that covered the clay piles.

The problem is January and February is the busiest months of the year for the farm show complex. between the PA State farm Show and the Sportsmans/outdoors show in the weeks prior to Motorama they take up pretty much the whole complex so really, storing the dirt outside (covered would help) is the only option
