What's the best way to register for someone like me living a hundred miles away from Trackside? Do you need the registration fee with registration? If so, I can mail a check. Or, can you charge my credit card?
Do I need to register now, or just show up on the 1st?
Thanks.

Hawk6 My son and I are planning on running minis and sportsman. We live a hundred miles away, so we'll be there unless there is awful weather.
See you then,

Sounds great.
I'd be open to any set-up advice for the minis. My son and I plan on running the minis at the TCS race, but so far have only run them a couple times at Cheese City RC in Monroe, WI.
Here's what I've been told so far:
> internal spacers in shocks to lower ride height (what's the min. ride height for minis at Trackside??)
> S grip tires in front with hard sedan inserts
> M grip tires in rear with softer inserts
> 70 - 90 wt oil in front
> 50 wt oil in rear
> blue springs in front, yellow in rear
> mount electronics as low as possible
Tamiya tires only for this race? I ask because I bought a used mini for my son and it came with I think Sorex slicks.
Thanks.

Larry,
Set-up sounds pretty good.
There is no minimum ride height for Mini's at Trackside. The lower the better, just don't let you chassis drag, that really messes up the handling.
You might consider adding a sway bar, use the heavy silver bar.
They only allow Tamiya tire for TCS races.
