whatchu guys think?
hey guys...what do you guys think of a multi-track points series. Extreme R/C Raceway (Spring Hill, TN), RBS RC Track (Clarksville, TN), and Thunder RC Raceway (Nashville, TN).
all these tracks are within an 1.25 hours of each other.
if you'd like to see this...repost this on your local tracks thread and maybe we can get something going if the track owners are interested.
could go something along these lines (obviously it would be up to the track owners to come up with the details)...
i figure if you don't do spec/stock classes there won't be as many issues with "can i run this motor?" or "are you running roar rules?" and so on and so on. mod classes make it much easier. run what you brung as long as its 2S and has vehicle appropriate body/wheel & tires.
classes? kids/sportsmans class (any 2wd 1/10 vehicle), 2wd buggy mod, 4wd buggy mod, 2wd sct mod, 4wd sct mod, others?
4 races total
1 race at each track (the two tracks not hosting a race will be closed to encourage the turn-out at the track hosting the race)
4th race at the track with the biggest turnout of the three previous races
points for finishes at each event
prizes and trophies for top three in each class
raffle prizes (maybe)
you could also run 7 races total. 2 races at each track and then a final race at the track with the single biggest turn-out at one of the previous 6 races.
all these tracks are within an 1.25 hours of each other.

Calendar, map updated
Added extreme hobby track at Olympus gym. Updated calendar thru July. Only have RBS, wildflower, extreme hobby, and bullet town schedule. Major events also added. As far as multi-track series TK, Dirla was asked, but didnt have a positive response. Hard to get a series if only a few drivers from your track are willing to travel, even if that date is a "closed " weekend for that track ( guess they would rather not race). Not everyone has the $$ or time to travel far like you, you high roller time and weather permitting, I'd go where you can have the most fun with friends.

hey ER...if this conversation is not really for this thread...feel free to send the conversation over to the http://www.rctech.net/forum/tennesse...st-tracks.html thread
i know the previous owners of the clarksville track (action speedway) didn't have a good relationship with the other tracks. (dont know why and dont care). the new owners of RBS are awesome. i hope they might be able to work something out. i figure a fair amount of drivers will travel since the tracks are so close. its hard to travel when its a few hours away. but at just over an hour it'll be easier.
i messaged all three track owners in hopes they'll get together and come up with something.

As of right now Extreme R/C Raceway would not be interested in a points series. When we are able to have a permanent facility where our track is able to have practice days for everyone this may change. We are very happy to have been considered to be apart of a cool points series though
