Usually we jam it all into Saturday. It is a long day but we have historically also provided food for everyone. You won't be disappointed but if you are traveling from afar you may want to consider spending the night Saturday (budget permitting).

From what I recall we ran 2.4 along with everyone else (see last year's attached spec sheet). Yes there is an advantage to 2.4 but not so much that it couldn't be compensated for by a better driver with a slower car. I think that was the justification of running the 2.4 with Stock. Needless to say I think the winners in the F1 were both running 2.4 AND were great drivers.

Russ... I'd suggest making stock 2WD class all 70 turn PN motors... and opening up the fets on all classes. Stock class is just that much cooler with the 70 turns and it really takes away any major advantages had by fet modifications. It just makes for a good separation in speed between the classes. I do like the F1 class allowing the 50 turn, but I think the allowable motor types should be specified. either that or just open up F1 to any motor same as the AWD class.

Just ideas... I'm sure many will agree with the 70 turn idea.

I'm open to changing stock to 70T. Anyone have a connection at PN that could hook us up with hand outs? That would be ideal.

I really like the idea of opening up the F1 to any motor. Wondering if the boys from VA have fast motors... Any objections to opening F1 to any motor?>>

Thanks,
Russ

Another benefit is taking the tech out of the mix too... you'll only really have to tech Stock Class and M18 then. I forget... do you have minimum weights for each class or is that open?

As far as handouts, I'm sure the majority of competitors will have some laying around to use but handouts would be super cool. I'm sure Phil will help out with this.

Thanks. Hopefully I will have good news next week on the blog.

We use corespeedway. If you don't already have a transponder for that system you will be given one at registration.

Track pic - see attached from last year.
