Hi Guys,
What classes do you usually run on Saturday? I will be back in NY next weekend and want to come up and race.

We always run 2wd buggy both stock and mod if we have the people. 2wd short course mod and stock if we have the numbers to split, stadium truck, 4wd buggy, and the new prolite

Just wanted to say I had a great time yesterday. The track was a lot of fun and it was great seeing everybody again. If all goes well I'll see you guys on the 28th.

Guys, Thanks for coming out to race last night...

Kregger thanks a lot for coming up, very glad you had a good time. Was an awesome Traxxas battle in Short Course with 3 LCG slashes in the grid!

Thanks for everyone's help working on the track afterwards. Big thanks to Jay for all the hard work he puts in every week to keep our racing surface top notch. In addition to Jay I'd like to thank Rob D, Savage, Steve, Dakota, Paul, Ryan and Jim Tani, the Reverend, and Blake and Eric Wazocha for always being there to lend a helping hand. These investments we've made in the tiller and plate compactor are really starting to pay dividends...the straightaway is now extremely smooth and hard packed and held up with virtually no problems whatsoever after a entire day of racing. We now have resurfaced the berm with the same technique and expect the same results there...the track keeps getting better and better every week. We hope everyone will come down soon to check it out and do some racing!

Outside people were choosing between holeshots and goosebumps for the most part

It was good racing with you on Saturday, Kregger. Nice drive in the 2wd buggy A-Main. I look forward to seeing you on the 28th.

I think the track has made great progress with the tiller and compactor. It will of course get rutted over time (can't prevent that, it just happens), but the compactor definitely helps. It's also great to see the surface remain somewhat loamy throughout the day. The loamy surface makes for great racing and is a nice change of pace from running near-slicks on indoor tracks. I hope it stays that way for the rest of the outdoor season.

+1 on the compactor, hats off to Will for pulling the trigger on that purchase.

I'd prefer to deal with the loam over the ruts but ruts are part of racing. With the compactor though it will make patching those that much easier.

Can't wait to spank you in a non-creepy way, Kregger

I put my B4.1 back together so I can tool around with a mod motor. I Frankenstein'd it a little bit, in order to fit some SC10 big bores I had lying around. Mounted an SC10 rear tower and front tower, and drilled the front tower to get the right shock positioning. We'll see how it runs.

The EB48SL should be ready to go for tomorrow. Turns out I ordered the SC diff outdrives, which are a little fatter than the EB48 outdrives. They still fit fine, though...just looks a bit odd. Let's hope it stays together for a full day. It's been over a month and I haven't been able to run it in anger for a full race.

It doesn't matter even if it does manage to stay together... You still got nothing for me in prolite

I assume we'll be running indoors if it rains?
