Well I had a great time this weekend. It was great seeing the pits so crowded at 360 with both locals and new faces. The race videos from this weekend will be going online over the next week or two.

Since I'd like to forget about my racing performance this weekend --- when will sign ups for the last round at The Track be open? Are there any hotel discounts or recommendations?

Hey Mike I know the most popular hotel over there is the Comfort Inn I have stayed there in the past They usually have a discount plus its about 2 min from the track.

I'm fresh off a 10 hour sleep after sleeping about 10 hours in three days down in Long Island and I would like to start off by saying that the 18 total hours of driving from Canada to 360 was well worth it.

The track was great the pitting space was awesome lots of room, and you couldn't ask for anything more then what they had on site in there hobby shop. The racing was top notch and was by far the deepest feild I have seen in 17.5 foam in all three stops so far at this event.

Thanks to the 360 crew was a fantastic weekend. I won't be able to get to Maryland sorry, so I hope everyone down there has a great weekend and puts out a cold beer to represent the Canadian content that your missing at this race lol.

Best Regards

Had a great time at 360 this past weekend. Those guys put on a show almost as good as the Halloween Classic. The only thing missing was the man-trough. Met a lot of new people, and met some fierce competition. My congrats go out to all of the winners.

Any idea when the points will be updated to include this race? I am curious to see when the 17.5 Sedan class is going to play out, because I think a lot of people have been missing races in this class. If I am thinking right, I may very well be in second place right now.

Next up, the series finale at THE TRACK! Be there!

Team Corally racer, Craig Xvavier (X-Man), consistently turned the fastest lap times throughout the weekend in Pro 10.5 TC Foam. The Maryland crew invites everyone down to The Track http://rctrack.com/ on Feb 20th for Round 4 of the NEGS. The X-Man will be glad to have ya.

I need a caption for this picture. I will start off with -

Had a great time at 360. Great track and a great group of guys running the place. We (The Track) should have a flyer posted tonight or tomorrow with all of the info. Most racers stay at the Comfort Inn which is 1 mile from the Track. For those of you that haven't been to The Track in a few years, or have never been there before, here is a recent pic...

y'alls on top of it! man, i'm impressed by the ownership each track (and the racers) have taken for their individual legs of the series. the points should be posted soon, so that the final battles can be sought out .. (and most importantly, the trash talk can commence).
