Racing is this Sunday. The buggy and truggy count last sun was in the twenties for each. Guys came last week that runs the pro series and had nothing but good to say about the track. It doesn't dissapoint. Some of the guys commented that it was the best track they've run on this year. Just grab the guys and make the trek. If it's not a top notch track then i guess the home team will have to buy the stewarts hot dogs!

You won't be disappointed the facility is top notch. This Sunday is a points race so there should be a decent showing.

To set the record straight. I have not been at the track in recent weeks because of medical problems that currently make it damn near impossible for me to compete at the level needed for off road competition. I will be back as soon as I feel like I can compete again. Anyone to speculate as to why I have left the off road scene for now without having talked to me is just that "speculation". It is hard enough dealing with what I'm going through right now and having to leave something I enjoy so much without people coming to conclusions as to why I'm not around. I have loved every minute of racing with you all and I will be back as soon as I can.

Surface is hard packed reddish clay and doesn't get loamy or blown out. Most days i run the same air filter all day. Track doesn't eat tires. Allen will water all you want but it usually just needs swept. Citiblocks are most popular truggy tire. Best of all the track stays pretty consistent all day.

This helps alot! I just bought a set of Crossbrace's meduim compound for my buggy. My personal track is very simlur to yours, but its more of a brown clay, hard pack, tacky when wet and is dusty when dry.

Looking like a pretty good turnout for fathers day. I've had quite a few folks contact me from other areas interested in coming sun. The track will be in prime shape with the rain we've been having. Brian, get ready for your speed motor lesson! Time to come to the darkside. OS POWER!

Sometimes just taking a break is best. Lets us get back into the groove! Will we be seeing some hot bodies around the track anytime soon?

You will like the v spec. With the right pipe they can be a handfull to drive. Get a EB Mods head button. Makes a very noticeable difference. Break it in properly and it'll run well for 8 gal at least. No more tuning issues. You won't know how to act. Let me know if u want help breaking it in.
