Drivers stand railing is too tall. Step stool is almost mandatory for anyone under 6ft tall so your radio clears the railing. Or you can just hold it up to your chest.

Our driver stand is built to code for the Rockford area. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have on you. But there is nothing we really can do about it due to the City Rules. Using a step stool for someone that tall puts you to high above the railing that a City Inspector would shut us down. That is why the rule is in place.


Thank you to all that came out!! It was a great day of racing! Lots of new faces. And some really close racing!! See you all soon!

We are starting at 2pm (doors open at 11)
We are planning on 3 unless it will run too late.
We will take a poll after round 1 if entries are real high.

Of course, might just run the buggy in stock and mod. I have some things I want to try and can use all the track time I can get. I'll have the sct with also.

Few questions here

What gearing is common for Blinky SC at your facility?
Whats the schedule for your points series? Meaning, 2 quals, 3 quals, will it be consistent week to week regardless of entries?
