Incredible First Practice @ The ROCCK with the lights on. The track was the best I have ever seen it. No dust and completely hooked up. This was so much fun. I saw plenty of families including mine. We needed this!!

Unbelievable!!

Big thanks to Heywood and Daniel Foster for running a clean practice.

I really think the 1/10 guys put on quite a show. These guys have no fear. Running with 1/8 Truggies and 1/8 buggies- WoW!

Track was perfect!! The driver stand, well that's on another level.

I would caution against using last night as an indication of what tires to use. Maybe someone with more experience can chime in. But, last nite was a bit of a one off due to the timing of the rain, ambient temperature. I don't think we are gonna see these conditions with the rare exception of in the spring and fall. It literally looked like rain on my gear as I was packing up.

Not trying to be negative, just realistic. I would hate for someone to sink some money into a set of tires and they not be conducive for future track conditions.
