A request, Brandon. Is there a chance that we can get basic setup info/hints for different cars, like we did for the VONats? There are too many foam and rubber tire styles and compounds available!

Brandon do they have wireless there or even a T1 line? I'd like to do the same coverage as I did last year at the Off Road Nationals. Can you please check? Thank you sir.

Brian, I will get with Robert (track owner). He would be the one to talk to as far as setup and tires goes. Tires will be the biggie, of course.

Jay, I am pretty sure he has wireless. Rob is a big computer geek :D so I would be surprised if it wasn't there.

Questions, let me know. Don't be shy.

FYI, Robert will be running an offroad club race in the next room on Friday night. They start at 7PM. Most everybody runs DSM so this shouldn't cause too many problems.

He has 2 timing boxes, so laptimes for the practice will still be available for viewing.

With that said, if you guys want to get your RC Fix, bring your buggies and lets race Friday night too!

Also, I will be giving away 2 complete NIB See's Gold BBS aluminum wheels for the RC10L as part of the door prizes!
