Mini-ZRacer.com Event: Friday 2/13/2009, Ann Arbor, MI
Join us at the Mini-Z Dojo for another Ann Arbor Mini-Z GTG on Friday February 13th, 2009. Bring your Mini-Zs, Iwavers, XMods, Micro-Ts, and Epochs, etc.
New people are welcome as always! Everyone is friendly and helpful and we have lots of fun!
Please bring $10 to cover the cost of the race night (one fee for the whole night of practice and racing - a great value!).
Reminder: You can now pay your entry fees online.
The event starts at 7pm and is in Ypsilanti, MI (just southeast of Ann Arbor). The address is: 4110 Morgan Rd, Ypsilanti, MI 48197
NOTE: Morgan is a dirt road between Carpenter and Michigan Ave.
Reminder that Dojo 3 is now in 4110 - park in front of the building and use the leftmost of the two doors.
------------------------------------------
Get your orders into http://Shop.TinyRC.com early and you can choose to pick it up at the GTG this Friday to save on shipping costs.
Post here to let us know what time you plan to come and what time you need to leave.
Please note that we will be following the new schedule:
Open Practice: 7:00PM - 9:15PM
Qualifiers: 9:30PM - 10:30PM
Fix cars and charge batteries: 10:30PM -11:00PM
Mains: Start at 11:00PM sharp
As such, I'd like everyone to post w/ the time that they plan to arrive, or any special considerations etc. (e.g. if you know you can't make it until 10pm, let me know and I'll charge some batteries for you etc.)
Btw, there are some huge potholes on the MI Ave side of Morgan - they may not be visible as the rain has filled them up, and you can't tell how deep they are - you have to go right to the side of the road to get around them, in fact the whole road is so bad right now I'd recommend taking the Carpenter entrance if possible.
Oh, one last thing - everyone was drooling over the McLaren ASCs last time - FYI there is a $10 off coupon for them right now - check out the shop News - but it expires tonight so you'd need to order now!
Guys, you have missed the first meeting of the reflexracing fun club.
So far we have three members:
Peter (me) - the reflex fanboy
D - the fanboy hater
C - he just happened to be around but really does not give a crap
We have put together a list of the future activities of the club with responsibles:
1) D will print out a picture of the reflexracing team
2) I have to lick the picture religiously every time just before I put down my car to the RCP
3) we wil enforce a ban on all non-slick tires because putting grooves in tires is silly as they decrease the gripping area of the tire (so no grooves, no radials)
4) we will install the next HFAY track layout so that the RCPs smooth side will be up. Reasons are the same as above in 3).
Future wannabe members have to meet the following criteria:
Fanboy
1) you have to drop hundreds of dollars to update your mr-02
2) dremel the crap out of a brand new beautiful autoscale body til it looks like a pile of horsesh@t
3) have a printout on hand of a reflexracing setupsheet all the time
4) bug D in every five minutes for another hop-up part which will turn your rig into the ultimate ****car
Hater
Just hate the funboy and make fun of him every time he mentions setup - beware its gonna look a little silly when he beats your @ss with his perfectly set up racecar.
If you just don't care you still can be a member like C
