Good job racing today guys. Grats to Willie for a first time mini guy and kicking @&* with it, and grats to Vue for the triple crown win today.

ok now, 4 things:

1.) So there will be Tuesday night on-road practice. Should the interest grow, we may change that to a Tuesday night race night, but we will see.

2.) The MARCCA on-road crew will be heading up to Oshkosh the Saturday following Thanksgiving weekend for a day of racing. We can talk carpooling and such this coming Sunday. I will post something on their thread.

3.) We will be starting our point series for on-road the Sunday after Thanksgiving weekend. We can either do an 8 week program with 2 drops or a 10 week program with 3 drops. I favor the latter but whatever we all decide is cool with me.

4.) Classes! These are the classes we will be running with the major rules below


F1 - 190mm width or less with rubber tires, 21.5 blinky

VTA - VTA rules apply although we will be lax on the driver

17.5 Blinky - Um... 17.5 Blinky...

Mini - 2wd chassis, Mabuchi motor or 21.5 Blinky with REASONABLE timing. It will be up to the race directors discretion if your timing needs to be turned down or not

The rules for Mini are still in the discussion stages but we are all adults and we can make it all work.


If you have something else and you want to come run, please, by all means do. We can always make something work. Those aren't the only classes we will run, they are just the classes we run most consistently. 3 makes a class!

If anyone can think of anything else, speak up.

See you next Sunday guys,
Jake
