Yes, Organized racing with AMB timing will be going in the spring. This is an initial meeting to see how the tracks work with more cars on them. This is a link to a horrible quality video I took of a practice lap on the track layout. It's big and allows for some serious speeds. The Oval track is at my house, & we might have a go at it as well on Saturday. It's ruthless fast & allows a ton of side by side action.
For right now we are off-road only here. We have a serious like for on-road too. The Thursday of I-Hobby, we went straight from the show to Leisure Hours. It was a riot is about all I can say. These dudes are not made for running on that tight of a track. Although I must say tight was not near as bad as the Jumps !!! WOW. I toasted a new body bad enough & finally broke a small suspension joint & gave up. Brian from BigSquid was there shooting video. I know he has some great stuff !! I seen one crash from his camera, " Not of me " and its a good one !! We plan to have some on-road time there if we can get some organization in on-road especially 4 wheel drive. We want to get ROAR to make a provision for this class to run. A National even at Leisure Hours looks to be possible to us ! Very nice facility all around !!
The biggest group of people coming are from the Chicago area anyway. They are like 7 strong & we have about 6 here. 13 big scale vehicles & couple of tracks, will make for good times ! I plan on running video quite a bit
