Yup. We got Road Rail & everything. We only had 4 TCs and 4 1/12 cars for roadcourse on Sat. but not bad for the first time and on such short notice. I expect it will grow since there seemed to be a good buzz and a lot of people watching. If some of you guys come down and we put on a show like we did at Marshall's on Sunday, I expect a lot of people would want to get in on that kinda action. Like you said.. We can talk about it on Sunday.

It's right around 36' x 60'. Definitely not a "big" track by any means, but still lots of fun and lots of grip, too. No photos yet, but I'll try to remember to take some next time.

1/10 stock is either 17.5 BL or 27T stock. Whichever motor you run the battery rule is 4 cell. Anything up to 4600NIMH. Stop by and give us a try. I think you will have a great time.

One weekend when money and weather give a green light I hope to. According to RandMcNally it's a 4 hr drive from here to there. Are there any inexpencive hotel in the area ?????? I might do the drive up Saturday and home on sunday.

Also do you have any traction compound rules ??? I presently use Paragon traction action and it's odorless.

Any odorless traction compound is fine, so you're good.

Traction compound OK we are cool on that .......Now all that's needed is a hotel or motel in case the racing goes to late or I just don't feel like driving home that night.

Hey Tom,
I had a feeling that was you who just posted the thread looking for advice on a 1/12 car. I just responded with a whole list of stuff.

Yes, everyone is very nice at Dirt Runners. You'd be hard pressed to find a better group of people to race with.
