Don't know about having water and power by then. but we do have a track laided out,it will set up for short course so it will be vintage friendly, so bring a ezee up and a grille and lets just have some fun. The event will last most of the day so bring your shelf queens for us to drool over. Bring parts for the swap meet. This is" NOT " a race event but the track will be open to play on ALL DAY.

Ahhh major bummer. That weekend is the SCCA June Sprints at Road America, which means Keith and I are both out. Too bad, we would have really enjoyed this event.

Come on, Thats only a couple hours away! :wink: You could come for a little while!

As soon as I get back to FL I will get some picture on here!!

This was a BLAST!!

I have never tuned or raced a RC10T2.

Racer Rick found out just how fast I am!!!

Now we are even up, next time we race is for the $$$$ :-)

===

The BEST part of the day were the KIDS that have NEVER been on a track before!!

To menter these new to the hobby was and is PRICELESS!!!!

Thanks Lee for all your "wise" words to this KIDS (some of the kids were the the DADS and MOMS!!!).
