Thank you for the warm welcome.

My brother has a practice over in N Joliet... so I am sure to drive over some weekend and check you guys out! LHS just looks off the hook!

That link for Hardesty's RC Raceway is defunked... and I have been searching for it as well. No lucky However thanks for posting it Snakebite.

That track in LaPorte has some really crazy hours... I had see that place a couple of months ago... and can never make it when they have track hours. I don't think they are too hard core?

OR if you want to see who is going to be at the track on a given date, check or start a thread at Bernie's board. There's a thread over there right now for Sunday 1/22....

Slim,
No offense was taken but..... Tune has worked on ChitownRC V2.0 for over 40 hrs already and it's only 1/4 done. Try doing that and working a full time regular job (where you can't sit on the 'puter all day like me and you).

Yes he could add a forum on this site in a matter of minutes but I think more of his concentration is on V2.0 right now.

S-Grid has a "OH/IL/WI/MI/IN" section so all the main tracks in those areas have to share ONE THREAD and it seems to work just fine. But over here people have problems using one thread for ONE TRACK???????


Having fun again!!!!

I don't think Hardesty's went anywhere. Seemed like a decently successfull track beside the point it's in the middle of BFE


Having fun again!!!!

Patience people, patience. I'm currently 50hrs into development of V2.0. There's alot of stuff I'd like to update and I'd like to do update everything at once. The site will have a new look, new features, the forums will be rearranged to address the concerns of the members.

I've been trying to keep a lid on things, but I feel now that some sort of update is required. I'd hate to think that people stop using the board because they might feel their concerns go unnoticed. This board has grown WAY past what I expected in a very short amount of time, and we are experiencing growing pains. Please remember, I work at a full-time job in which I don't sit in front of the computer, plus living a normal life, plus trying to upkeep my rc's so I can race regularly.

Thanks for understanding,
John D

I didn't mean to imply they were closed. Just the web site. I can't wait to check both places out.

If you dont want to sift through hundreds of posts then dont post up anything that doesnt have to do with the topic . Now since this thread has been cluttered and bruised enough lets get back on topic here.

Im gonna talk with tex and see if we can get some of this cleared up.

The farthest that the "Friday at LH" Thread went off Topic, was Rich asking how busy Fridays are, because he needs to break in an engine. Other than that, It was just people saying that they would be there. The Post by Satoch (Which had Absolutely nothing to do with anything but "The benefits of living in the City" were actually posted in the Thursday at LH Thread, which was also merged here.
