Junkman -

I noticed you have a lot in the works there including your beta site, presumably (from one programmer to another) you are going to LOSE THE FRAMES! It makes it very hard to link directly to specific topical pages on your site.

At any rate, I've added your site under "tracks" and "events" on mine and you're welcome to "borrow" any of the listings there, as of today I have 195 tracks listed, all verified and live. If you should sign up I'll pass ownership of that listing to you, and you can additionally add as many unique listings as you like. Even though we've just "met" I've described you as an affiliate.

You want to see a great listing of tracks - check out racingusa.com.

I plan on having the Frames gone by December 1st and the Beta be the Main site by then. This will probably break some external links but there are not very many of them out there.
As for the listings, all of them are entered by the Clubs/Tracks themselves.
I noticed a relationship between three things.
Racers race at Events, Events take place at Tracks, Tracks are run by Clubs (or hobby shops typically) (Clubs may have more then one track).

So that is how the database is set up. Can't have a track that doesn't belong to a club (maybe in the future).

Oh, drivers race cars that have frequencies, their is often a conflict (even with synth modules) So knowing these ahead of the event I can pick one that has the least people on it and probably have a trouble free day!.

As a bonus, if the clubs use us for there event sign up, the setup time is very short and easy to keep track of right up-to and past race day.

I will take a look at your web site,
Thanks,

Default Site Update

where to race r/c

The website has a completly different look/feel to it now (thanks LP)
  • Login:
    With the "Remeber Me" login is transparent for both drivers, and clubs.
  • Setup:
    Easier to use screen for setting up your cars, Clubs, Tracks and Events.
  • Clubs:
    Every club now has a Blog available to them. As a bonus, the last entry in the blog will be put into the RSS stream for the website!
    Also All of the coming events will be put into the RSS stream so if you have a rss reader, you will know instantly when new events or a new club-blog entry has been made.
  • Join Events:
    Much easier to select your matching vehicles now. Just check the box and submit. As before PayPal is an option for the Race Directors so paying for the event is quick as familure to most.
  • Set up Events:
    For the Race Director, setting up a New Event is a simple two step process, set up the basic, when and where (pick a track you have already setup) then select the classes you want to offer (from a check box list).
Much easier then before.
Visit, login and let me know what you think, this website is to allow R/C racing more enjoyable for everyone. And will reduce the time the Race Director is spending managing entry's.
