Hara will not be at IIC this year. Hot bodies will be focusing all their efforts toward the Nitro TC worlds and 8th scale off road worlds later this year.

So a New Champion will be crowned in Super stock TC this year after Hara's dominance the past few years!

The real question is there really anyone out there who decides not to goto a big race because a fast guy is in stock, or is just an excuse for another reason why they weren't going to go anyway.
I'll be running amateur and stock, maybe a pan car class.

This will be my first IIC.

I am not going to this race so that I can engorge my genitals by beating more talented and experienced racers. I do however want to see exactly where I place against all the drivers i've been reading about and following for my on and off 28 year rc "career".

The amount and degree of frustration people seem to have with these faster drivers entering their class is interesting to me. Don't we go to these races to race with the fast guys? Not too long ago there was 2 classes and no one complaining about getting crushed by Masami. It was an honor!

I am looking forward to seeing just how long I can stay in Haynes Mirrors for, each time he laps me, and Hebert, and Ellis, and Moore, Etc.

Dave.

I spoke with Scotty about this additional class last week. At the time, he was still trying to hammer out some details. I'm hoping for an announcement any day now.
