Hi All
Racing this Saturday. Doors open at 10:00am. Racing to start at 11:00am.
Couple items of note:
This is the first weekend when the new race fees come into effect:
Member Discount List Fees - 1st class $15, 2nd class $5, Adult and Child together $20 (ages 12 and under)
Non Discount List Fees - 1st class $20, 2nd class $10, Adult and Child together $25 (ages 12 and under)
If you want to start saving on your race fees (and get access to all the other benefits of being on the discount list) come see me and we will get you signed up.
We will be having a new racer out this weekend participating in the buddy program. Please come over and say high and give a hand if you can. If you know anyone who wants to come try racing, please have them sign up on the website Home - TRUKZ RC Raceway.
If you arrive and are unsure which pit tables have be rented for this year please see Brian and he will help you find a spot. We are hoping to have the pit tables labeled soon for those that have rented space.
As always, the BBQ is available if you want to bring your own hotdogs or hamburgers (or even a steak!)
Should be an exciting week of top 10 list challenges. Lots on the go and should maybe see some movement on the list.
Transponders are in Canada and I am hoping to have them this weekend. With the US dollar and shipping they will work out to $46.00 each. I will post again if they come in time for raceway. This is our cost and we make no extra cash on this price.
The executive will be formulating a plan for practice days this weekend and we should be able to announce that early next week.
See you out there.

They would, but we were gonna buy new phones for Xmas anyway. The money for new phones was scheduled to come off next week’s paycheque. It all kinda works out...sort of.
Anyway, my rear grip was absolute crap yesterday.. I was spinning out in low speed corners, using light throttle. Diff is loose enough, tires are decent. Using the magical Munday universal setup. Any thoughts?

Hi All
Thanks for coming out racing this weekend. A few key points:
-31 entries spread over 3 classes.
-We have our second heater and it will be installed once we need it.
-Two new young racers came out for the buddy program, even though they had a challenge with their cars, they will be back.
-I want to thank all of the racers for their support and for the exec for the amount of work that everyone is putting in.
-Jim got a new phone!
-We are looking at making a few changes to the track to improve flow, reduce the amount of marshal time, and limit damage to the track.
Overall we are lucky to have such a good scene in Calgary (Sounds like Carcar had a good weekend as well).
As always, we are open to suggestions and input. Just let us know.
Thanks
Aaron

It’s obvious someone’s hacked Ivan’s account.

Hi All
Racing Saturday as usual. Doors at 10, racing at 11. Lots of challenges on the top 10 list should be interesting to see how it unfolds.
We are doing some work on the track tonight as I mentioned previously. Should be a good day of racing.
If you need a transponder, let me know ASAP as I won't be there tomorrow, but can make arrangements to get you one.
Thanks

Hi All
Just wanted to give everyone a quick update on how we are adjusting to some of the growing pains this second season for us:
-Due to a larger than expected turnout of racers both old and new, we are going to be adjusting the qualifying times to 5 min and the mains to 8 min. As attendance fluctuates, so will the length of the qualifiers and mains. We want to try and get out at the end of the day and have some time for the top 10 challenges.
-Just want to remind everyone of the motor limit rules. We are usually pretty loose on enforcement so we are giving everyone until the end of October to find the right size motor for the class. Please note that 10.5 is the max for 2wd and 4wd buggy and 17.5 for short course. Also note the blinky (stock) setting for speed controls.
- For the Top Ten, rules will be posted beside the list for any questions that arise about them.
If you have any questions or comments please come and see one of the exec. As you have seen in the past we are super flexible with making changes and want this to be a club where everyone can be involved.
Thanks
Aaron
