George is right guys (not too sound like im is lap dog) The owner of the land was hella cool letting us build there and devoting a rather larger chunk of land to r/c instead of planting soy beans on it. If it were my land i wouldnt want people just showing up whenever they wanted ethier...
Im can hardly wait to race that track myself.... Concidering it will be the biggest i have ever raced on but its not even done yet... It still needs pipe and the finishing touches like being dragged and having the jumps groomed...
Please dont let this discourage anyone from coming out on the 3rd... We ( as a club) would love to have everyone there!!! But not till the 3rd..
Thanks for listening.
Roc
Thanks sponsor!!!
You going out there with the guys too work later??
That sucks man. Was is someone from one of the boards?
I have no idea, not singling anyone out. Just letting everyone know.
so im letting dimo himself pick parts for project dimo killer......
so far i have ordered
Jumbo Kong tires
an el camino body
a 5 lb weight to hang off the front, john says these wheelie hard

lol
LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Di , God i love you!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :bustingup :bustingup :bustingup :bustingup
Do you guys need some private time?

John, dont use simple green in the shocks thats stupid! Use a nice spray wax, that way they will stay clean. HAHA
....use water, its cheaper and doesnt have an oily residue
George,
Is there a time schedule for the day on Sunday? Practice times, qualifiers, and mains?

intermission is like 30 mins
then the c-mains and b-mains are 5 mins
a-mains are 10 mins
racing usually goes till around 5pm but being that it will be more packed this weekend, prolly like 7pm
no electricity, bring DC chargers or a bunch of packs already charged

Tex, Eracer,
Thanks, basic reading required, right! I guess I recall reading that but I am having a long week and those brain cells are long gone.
10am - 7 pm, that's a long day of fun.
Hope to make it there. We'll see!
Thanks again.
You should come on out dave it would be nice to finally meet you in person.

I agree, you should make it out.
Well, it's official, we can't make the "all day racing" part work for Sunday. I still hope to get out to see some of the the mains .
the warden gotcha on lock down?
if you can come out from like 2pm to 5-6pm that's when all the real action takes place.
Tex don't lie the real action is the electric 1st qualifier....
Nutin like it, when they all get up to the starting line , the ROAR of those man powerful motors.. Make the hair stand up on my neck just thinking about it....
Rocco, I won't admit to the Warden part, but yeah, it's like that.
If we sneek up on the "all day" aspect of the racing by only going for "a couple of hours" on Sunday, it will be easier to plan for an all day event later on.
And we're having the Fourth Party
alute: at our house Monday, so I need to chill the beer :drool:and season the steaks, and all that prep work. And before you ask, no, I won't tell you where we live. :moon:
