I would like to give complements to the owners of Marshall's for running a great race day on Sunday. It was my first visit there and let me tell you, the atmosphere and the competition was great.
Great job by the folks starting out the f 103 gt class. Those cars looked great and handled very well. Reminded me of late 80's 1/10 pan car racing! Maybe it will catch on.

BTW,the rubber TC car is working really well.About 3/4 second off the foam pace.Need to do a bit of tweaking this week.Will try some more next sunday.I'm running CS22's,Alex had CS27's,I think.Both were working very well.Looking to do a full-on rubber class for the cabin fever race.Mario.

well now we are going to have a two low entry touring car classes. about six in foam and maybe four in rubber. we need to have one big class and run whatever tire you want if you dont want the hassle of foams run rubber. bill needs to decide what he is going to do. the touring car class is starting to dwindle down the way it is. i can see next year at the open house rubber tires only, and have bill get the spec tires and go that route but here we have about six weeks left of the season.... i see touring cars going the way of the gas stadium trucks, at least at marshalls.

well on another note last week was full a great racing in both the touring class which i beat out a hard charging bob by only a few secs 
and in 1/12 jeremy ran away at the begining (He has so much rip its unreal
)
but i put up a good chase with the new car
we both has some close cals negotiating trafic we put everyone on there feet
at the end jeremy won by no more that a the straighaway
the spec touring class had a good start and tim stold the show with good very consistant lap times
in F1 the 4wd's were out in force with moario and john piloting there new rides and puting on a good show but both suffered from battery problems
Mario ran out of juice near the end but john lost the whole battery
I think this classs will take of ( Im getting into teh action )
i hope everyon is geared up for another fun weekend i know i am and i brought some more speed also so look out
