There will be no race next weekend.

Saturday, I will be attending McCullough's race and Sunday is Father's Day.

Why don't we gather up a group and go race at McCullough's.

The next race at Altoona, will be the RMHC Event. June 25, 26, and 27th. This will be a "MUST ATTEND" Event. Remember, all proceeds will go to the Ronald McDonald House Charities.

Quick question for you guys, I am looking for a good hobby store in PA to order nitro fuel from, there are no hobby shops left in state college and would like to buy it at least in PA so I don't have to wait 7 days for ground shipping. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

One day for charity is better than none. Looks like it is going to be a great event.

Tom can get you EB Mod fuel, or I can get you fuel made in Altoona. 20% is $24 a gallon, 30% is $26. The guy here in town uses the same materials that are used in S & W fuel. PM me for details.

Not saying a word. I've heard good things about the EB fuel.

Default Rmh race

Good question about the number of days for the race. G's in shippensburg just tried this and turn out was not spectacular. Instead of maybe splitting your crowd due to people not making it out multiple days have you considered a single day race? I think we are in the wrong economy for a multi day race even though i can make it alll days. I think it would be better to run with a larger group of people.

Friday, the 25th, is just basically open practice. Qualifiers will not be ran that day. I understand what you are saying about multi day events. I will certainly look into it.

+1 on the 2 day race . I did talk to a couple people that would have run this event if it was 1 day. I am being selfish, but I wish it was run Sunday only because I could be back from out of town that day! lol!!!! Please post how many positions are open for the mains after qual. day next week.
