3.5!? I think it would be pretty cool to see the SC trucks lofting the tires out of the corner and into the backstretch but man that would suck to corner for those guys!

Ya, we had a blast last night. Nice to see such a big turn out. The track was fun to race. Mod SC is a fun, competitive class to run as well as the stock truck class. And how about that Dean Berndt guy battling for the lead first time out with the new truck. Great job Dean!
I cant make it to the SNF race next week . But I hope to make it back on the 23rd.
Does anyone have a suggestion to try to keep a GTB w/ 17.5 from unexpected suddenly shuting down? It really sucks when your challenging for the lead and it happens.

First time for offroad at Trackside for Jason and me. Once again a big thanks for everyone making us feel welcome. We had the wrong tires, wrong set up and still had big fun and a great time. It was extra exciting to watch Chris Flood bump up to the A main and hold second for a good part of the race. Great family fun and a great job Chris!

Hope to see everyone for the first SNF. Keith and Jason.

Chuck, I seem to remember one of your sedans doing that a while back. I would bet/guess it is something with the GTB. I would to send it Novak for service.

Your right Snowy. Michelle was driving my trans am car one night and it did the same thing, several times. I checked everything that night. The next week on it never did it again. Weird. This is a whole different esc. I was told with Michelles incident to try a capacitor on the receiver. I have thought of trying that on here although I dont know how that fixes anythng.

Thanks to James, Jay and Wayne for making the trip up to run SC with us.
Also to Chuck and Nick Billie for making their return.
Josh and Monica thanks.

Great to see lots of old faces and new ones. Mike McCormick back for his first night and takes the win, nice job.

Thanks again to everyone for the support of Trackside.

Here are the final results.

Thanks
Scotty
Always a great time, competitive and friendly. Thanks to Mike to who helped me with my 'newbie' question about gearing (ha). Anyways, looking forward to coming out again!

Default Tuesday = On Road Racing!!!

That’s right everyone, it is Tuesday. Every week so far we have been growing in numbers. WGT should take off tonight with hopefully the return of both Jamie and Scotty. Or at least they have been doing plenty of smack talk’n. 17.5 will be huge as always, last week we had cars for an A, B, and I think a C main. As Scotty posted above somewhere, I do have a Mini. Mini class is alive at Trackside. Hopefully Nathan Weir can get a hall pass from mom to race tonight. Hope to see everyone tonight.

Snowy.

Another fun night of racing. WGT is getting bigger every week, sounds like there should be more next week too. It was good to see Scotty wheeling a car again, and a good run by Willie! See everyone next week.

I should be there with my World GT car next week... Hoping to get some wheel time in before racing, but if not I'll just have to work out to bugs on the fly like usual Will also be in for T/A or 17.5 once Danny from SMC can get me a new pack for my bad one.

If by chance anyone has a manutech lipo tray for the '007 and are selling it let me know. Danny isn't carrying the same packs anymore and I don't think the new one will fit without the manutech plate...
