Good luck on racing this weekend. I had planned on making the event, but other things are getting in the way.

It's was 30-40% forecast for rain today. Not one drop fell.
I know Jason , Dee, and I were there Sunday, pushed the water off the track it dried out nice and had some good running

Weather is looking much better now, the rain is coming a bit earlier and the percentage of rain for saturday is currently at 30 which is where it always is! Friday will probably be a wash but the rest of the weekend will be good, maybe some early morning saturday rain at the worst! THey have lights so if we have to race into the night its no problem.

Well at least I have PART of the car ready. Marcus tried to work a miracle but my car just isn't going to make it here until next week. Since I cant race if anyone needs a pit hand I'm available.

Will the race be broadcast on LiveRC?

Keep those of us who could not make the race, see what we missed.


Thanks
Mark

We sincerely apologize but.....

The Official Grand Prix Race has to be rescheduled due to the weather. It will be reposted on RcSign Up.

Thank you and we apologize for any inconvenience, Mother Nature jacked us up.


***We do have several out of towners still here egar to run on road the are planning on coming out Sunday to practice/run and possibly race.
If we get no rain and are able to prep the track we will see if we could possibly have an actual race. (2 qualifiers 20min Mains) We would start between 12-1pm and would run a tight program, if we did race.

IF WE RACE, IT IS NOT COUNTED TOWARDS THE IGT8F WINTER SERIES OR CONSIDERED THE GRAND PRIX. IT IS JUST A NORMAL MIKES CLUB RACE.

Your right I have discussed this with Jeremy, and we will have to pick a new date. As soon as we get a new date, I will post it.

Default I hate rain!

At least we got to run a couple of tanks on Sunday. Better than nothing. Thanks to Steve McLaughlin for shuttleing me around on Sunday to the track and airport. I think the nicest people in the U.S. must all live in Texas.
