Sorry Chad. We did the 22nd, it was my understanding the majority of the beach guys would be available for that date. The majority of our guys found out dates last night. Hope it all works out..

Come on Landon. I know you have an LM body laying around.

I do have an LM body, but no extra chassis, and no motor mount that is good at 102. i rarely run any longer than 96, so i got rid of all my old LCG pods.

I sold that box stock car to Grason when he burnt up one of his cars a while back. I only have two cars now. My 70t GT, and my mod car. In theory I could tear down my mod car, and make something work, but it's hard for me to justify tearing down the best car at our track that I run every single week.

I think I will pass. I've seen your cars going around the track, lol. Just kidding....but in all seriousness, I don't want to be learning how to drive one of your cars when I can be focusing on getting my two cars good enough to get the points I need. At the last cup race I was barely lucky enough to have two cars to run by the third qualifier, and those were ones that were dialed when I left here. BTW, I'm full of cheese

No dialing in needed. Arrive and drive. Or. Is that clucking I hear in the background?

Bottom line by not running what we no everyone has in classes is effecting the mini z racers as a group event and also hsh losing out on profit for that class . Were is the unity

It's not a matter of unity. Just giving Landon a hard time.

Remember I'll need help next week changing the layout if anyone is available.

Albert, I used to have a car for every class, and a couple of extras just in case something went wrong or I wanted to try something different. That was back in the day of $100 cars, $25 diffs, and DDS suspensions. In the new day of expensive cars, diffs, tri-shocks, and a front suspension I actually have to put money into (generally ran stock knuckles and springs on the 02s), I can't afford to have 4-8 cars all set up the way I want to. Also, i have found that the hobby is much easier and enjoyable for me to only have to have 2 cars handling well. Since limiting myself to only running 2 classes at out of town races, I have finished every single class I have run on the podium. I get more free time to get those cars right, and I've even had some time to help ole Daddy Rabbit out here and there. With F1 being one of the classes at this race, I would consider running a third (since I don't work on my F1), but not when it will be a car and class I never run. I haven't run an LM body since running box stock at y'all race at the beginning of this year.

We might be considered adults....but aren't we just getting together to play with toys? I guess we can just expect mature childish behavior, lol.

Giving Landon a hard time is not allowed. Y'all are all in violation of Cup code #112. I will be deducting 150 points from Rodney's season total.

Changing the layout? Sounds good to me. Is it going to be fast and flowy?
