Re: VINTAGE GET-TOGETHER IN CENTRAL ILLINOIS

Losi IFMAR studs (red compound), J CONSEPTS Goosebumps (green compound) these two tires work very well. The track is a yellow clay/dirt compound , alot of traction when damp, traction is fairly decent when dry. Watering of the track is available.

I am looking at June 11, 2011 for our next vintage day get-together. Hope it is as much fun as last year. A day of running vintage RC vehicles, just kicking back and having fun. I think this is a early enough notice for people to adjust their schedules to make this one. thanks Rick
