please use the specified offsets. +3 front may fit but rule of thumb is it's going to be a problem for someone, there is always one...

rear wings are allowed, if you are kind enough to provide one for each team (6)

no modifications to the body are permitted unless absolutely required for proper function of parts. all parts that came with the kit must be installed with exception of the front tow hook. this includes the pesky ferrari logo

Atomic lexan window must be used and provided with each team white body kit.

if practicing ahead of event, PN 70T motors will be used for the event and will be provided at the track.

Remnant Race Track of Maryland has pit space available with on-site soldering station, compressor for cleaning off cars, etc.

all races are video recorded and posted to club youtube channel.

I was planning to, but my budget is currently sequestered.

Not sure why u guys are changing the standard Kyosho front offset for the 599xx, but I will do so as requested. Off to order some rims

With 6 teams, it should be alot of fun, cant wait.

lets just say there are many opinions when it comes to appropriate offset went with least likely to cause trouble is all, a compromise if you will.

is should be plenty of fun. if not, were not doing it right

For the crews coming in from out of town. You will want to bring a extention cord and power strip just in case. We have enough tables and chairs. What time do you think that you will arive on Sat? I was just wondering what time you all wanted to start? Thanks MK

as my team has not met for practice yet, i would like to start as early as practical. the earlier we open practice, the sooner the race can start meaning the sooner the race will end and travelers will have more time to, well, travel.

i can be there as early as 8am, that's sleeping in for me anyway.

i'm hoping we can tool around afterward for some fun time too. i have my DS3 to test (90mm) and maybe my ferrari 458 (HFAY). it would be great if we could squeeze in some fun runs with the out of town guys if they have time.

We'll probably roll in around 10 or a bit earlier. I think 3 drivers should be able to tune a single car pretty quickly (famous last words).

I just spoke to Gary.. He will open the track at 8AM on Sat. We will supply hotdogs and chips for the racers. This way you will not need to leave for lunch as long as you like hotdogs. Looking forward to seeing everyone.

you will have to download them from your phone to whatever you use; website, computer, etc. then upload to the gallery page linked. you should see the button to text link to upload photos on that gallery page.

this version of vb bulletin doesn't yet support mobile devices as a drive to upload images from. more recent versions do, but this one doesn't. i should clarify that by saying it won't recognize my iphone as a drive to get images from. i have no idea if that holds true with android phones.
