You guys going to be at the parking lot tomorrow....Friday night?

Hows the crap on the pavement? Is there lots of debris? I'm asking because I was thinking about bringing an electric on road car if the conditions will allow it. We've got one of our 1/8th scales ready too.

Will do Gene. I'll have the dark blue mini van, I sport a beard and am the sorta asian/non-descript minority looking guy....the wife calls me the Samoan......

If you got a transponder and feel like doing some flatland oval racing bring it. Its pretty much anything goes. 1:8th buggy, Truggy, Emaxx, DM-1, Hyper 7, IGT, 1:10th. Everyone races. Smile

I didn't race last week but I did run the practice laps.

The racing usually doesn't start till the big bashers go away. We have 5th scales out there too (very scary to run your 1:8th and risk a collision. Got crazy guys jumping the hell out of savages on concrete. Landing on their lids. Insanely fast truggies Smile

And hopefully we'll have two 7th scales out there, mine being the operative word. I just embarked on a $150 single speed conversion. to get rid of the nasty heavy, 2spd in there now.

The 2spd tranny weighs MORE than the 30vg engine that powers it!. The new single speed is super light.
