LOL.... I added a post near the end about setting a time for Hooters, so the guys who don't bash can still head to Hooters.....

so how was the track besides what everyone is talking about..u know the good things that happened?? anyone???
January 2nd. Open Practice at LH 12pm-8pm! - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 01-03-2006
track was super dialed all day, i would say more than it has ever been, the traction was all there, I think if it stays like these there will be some amazing races in the future

Saw Tex do a nice backflip when pinned against the wall by the pits! Wicked move.
Saw Mike Czech doing some nice driving with that buggy. I like how you enter that RH corner at the end of the front straight after hitting 40mph!
Was very impressed by the electrics I saw. Tex, yours isn't the only truck I saw wheelie halfway down the straights! Now get back to studying for finals!
Can't wait to see how it drives when we go back "off hours" without the Dan Ryan effect!
Lastly, back to marshalling, maybe Bernie and the drivers can agree on locations for the marshalls and put out cones. I always felt I saw blocking the view of the track and that I need to move away. Maybe I didn't need to??? Some of the frequent crash sites didn't really have a "safe" place to stand and marshall.... my .02.
January 2nd. Open Practice at LH 12pm-8pm! - Tex - 01-03-2006
naw, usually people aren't in the way when marshalling unless it's 2-3 people huddled together on the track chatting or whatever.
Oh and whenever your pinned strait against the wall and your a monster truck you can just floor it and it'll backflip ya off the wall...no marshall needed.
January 2nd. Open Practice at LH 12pm-8pm! - DAVEC-NITRO-RS4 - 01-03-2006
Maybe YOUR truck can do that.....
January 2nd. Open Practice at LH 12pm-8pm! - Tex - 01-03-2006
everyone did it at the last place....savages, revos, maxx's...whatever
January 2nd. Open Practice at LH 12pm-8pm! - DAVEC-NITRO-RS4 - 01-03-2006
Another stupid question that experienced track racers can answer....
The raised pit lane was not real wide; not wide enough for 2 trucks to fit. Is it common practice to have to remove your truck from the pit lane to fuel it on a pit stop and then replace it for exit from the pits?
And let's make it two stupid questions in one here.....
How do you start a race on this track if there are like 8-10 trucks? Are they on a grid based on QT? Placed on the track?
Thanks for the education!
January 2nd. Open Practice at LH 12pm-8pm! - cemeb4dk - 01-03-2006
Yes you must lift vehicle and place on wood to fuel or pit. Cannot leave truck/buggy in the lane.
January 2nd. Open Practice at LH 12pm-8pm! - Michowski - 01-03-2006
thats definatly not a stupid question. It little things like that that will start these big debates online and cause nothing but problems. Thats a really good question and cemeb4dk is right. Remove the truck onto the wood, fuel, and drop it back on the lane as long as somebody isnt right behind you.

George and Ryan, thanks!
What can we learn about how a heat/race main gets started (usually)?
January 2nd. Open Practice at LH 12pm-8pm! - Tex - 01-03-2006
yepper Dave, they start the cars on the strait in a grid pattern in order for how fast you qualified
