sun practice
hey guys had a good practice today and broke-in a new motor but still needs some tunning . any sug. on what a good setting for a novarossi mt12 ? i think i will try agin mon. looks like good weather until wed. A few of the regular racers were tunning on their cars and messing around having some fun . Binson was out even with little tractoin was still making some good laps .i ran a RRR with a lola body and tim ran the 720 with the 962 porsche body it sure is nice class i like to see more of the touring racers run the lola gtp and run some diffrent classes just thought it would be nice to change it up also why dont we race the track in the oppisite direction ? all together six touring and two 1/8th scale cars when i left at 2:30 and one electric 1/10th scale pan car .

B.A.T.,
If I was to show up during the week to drive some during the day, how much work does it take to get some decent traction on the track? Do you all start by blowing it off with the blower? I think Nick has a few MT12's, he could probably give you some tuning hints.

well IHITTHEWALLFAST i went to the track today and traction wasnt to bad ran about 5 tanks traction was about med did not blow of the track ther was little wind on days that it is windy with all the work on finishing the off-road dust can be a problem . I like to blow the track off not just because of the dust but the trees drop cones leaves and pine needles and they get in your car so it good practice to clean the track the track has a blower and a wet-vac for water and you are welcome to use them . thanks i will ask nick about those settings .

Racing this Sunday on road
I spoke with Jeff today, they have 260 entered in the RC Pro off-road race this weekend. WOW! I bet there are not that many in the on-road Nats.
I guess the on road on Sunday is off There will be a parking problem I bet

Nick thanks for the update.
The on road club race will be cancelled this Sunday. Jeff will allow onroad practice on Sunday with Spektrum (DSM) only radio equipment so as not to conflict with the off-road race. Jeff plans to keep the concrete lot open for Hobby Shop and On-road customers by blocking it until the Shop opens Sunday.

PS You might want to bring your own pit table for weekend onroad practice.

Well I came to the track today, i dont know how to put into words how well the facility was. It was extremely clean and very well run. The races were run very smooth and everything kept a really good pace. You guys do an awesome job at running a race with such large numbers, i was really impressed at everything. Definetly a top notch track, and worth racing whenever you get the chance to.
