since we are running both tracks at the same time on newyears day are there going to be enough house transponders for this to happen maybe this question was never asked as the great minds at trackside were working overtime thinking if this can happen i say this is a great idea and worth trying to see how this will work ...jeff j ....something to think about

This makes me laugh....

Seriously though, great thing you did there Jeff, I am sure Thomas will be showing it off like crazy when it's done!!

This is true, however, we have lost a lot of house transponders in the last few weeks, and at a low price of $143 ea. for those handout transponders we cannot be replacing them all the time.

This brings me to my point, we do have a few personal transponders left in the store(I think...), so if you don't have one, you may want to pick one or two up. The latest version of the personal transponder is actually cheaper than the last version...actually almost $20 cheaper so I would jump on them now before AMB decides to raise the price again.

Thanks Buck! If you happen to see Thomas or his Dad over the next few weeks please have them get ahold of me. We exchanged emails but I havent been able to reach them to talk about paint schemes (the incredible hulk was a joke LOL). [email protected]

BTW Boomer was kind enough to donate his photo of Thomas's JBPAINTERX trophy pic too!

I'm going to try the same thing, guess we will see how it all works out.


Is there also a Friday night (New Years Eve) race?

Is there an ESC rule for the stock 17.5 SC class?

yeah, but i think it applies to all of the stock classes. no timing allowed in the esc. u can have an esc that has the capability to change the timing, but you can't use that function. There was some confusion earlier about that.

In all 17.5 classes the esc must be set to spec mode, no cheat mode or whatever you want to call it. There has to be an led indication that you are not running timing or boost.
