Default How about spraying the track for traction

I will volinteer my sprayer and my time if you are willing to put something on the track, Aldi soda is no very expensive and i'm sure the lions club guys won't have a problem with it. Aspecily if it is sealcoated it will make for a much better day of racing. I have not seen the parkinglot in a while but it will help.

If you get there early you'll have a good amount of practice time. Last year the track was dusty because it was watered once or twice. So, grip was an issue.

Does HTSC have a website, and does that website list track/racing details?

Ht does have a web site you just have to go to Hobbytownusa.com and click on find a store and click on HT St charles Il and it will tell you the race dates and times and other stuff that is going on in the store. As of now I dont think the race points or results are on there. Just try to get on our site and all the HT web site are not working for some reason.

thats fine twelvegauge if you want to spray the track down. I just got out of the E and D meeting and I measured the width and Its 70ft wide and 125 ft long so this is going to be a very big track for HT I hope I have enough pipe for this track, because I'm going to need it all for this track.

What would be a good time to show up? If you need help setting up I live over in sycamore so I could get there pretty early I usualy get up at 4am.

HT points should be posted up here in a day or so. I talked to Dave and he is adding them tonight. I hope he adds a few more numbers next to my name.

He better not, according to my calculations I'm leading you by one point in the slash class. And that is after spotting you 55 laps on the easy track day where I missed two heats

This could be a close point race with only 2 races left. Now all I have to do is get in front of you some how in the next 2 races and I'm in 1st. Maybe you could just miss one more race or just part of one Mark. LOL
