We're just a week away from our 2nd R/C Worldrome event at the Encino Velodrome near Los Angeles.

Track Facts:

252 meters (826 ft.)
Pro 17.5/2c class runs in the low 8 second lap time range -- travelling just under 100 ft. per second. (roughly 67 MPH)

We'll be at the track FRIDAY afternoon - June 8th for a few hours of practice with racing planned to get underway around 11:00 on Saturday June 9th.

We've got (4) racers joining us ALL the way from JAPAN, and one from Lousiana and one from Texas too. (plus the guys who come from ALL over CA.)

We're expecting in the 35-50 range of racers. (possibly more)

I will have VELO TIRES for Pan Cars on hand 4 Sale (Orange EHW BSR Caps) -- these run $108.00 per set at the track, $115.00 SHIPPED

We're going to run Spec SLASH (Dirt Oval Mod Bodied) cars (if they show up) and the TAMIYA Euro Trucks (these are really slow, so I'm not yet sure what we'll do with them, but what ever we do should be fun.

Our "Regular" Velo classes include

OVAL SPEC - HobbyWing 21.5 (spec motor) JUSTOCK 3650SD G2 - up to 5000mAh 2c Lipo (blinky ESC mode), McAllister Gen6 Nascar style (200mm) bodies.
