Bernie's the MAN !!!!!!!!!!! More track experience than all of us combined. Keep up the good work Bernie and I'll see ya on Saturday. Anything I should bring with me ?
George, you in for the helping the Bern-bot out ? Dominick, you racing anywhere this Sunday ?

lol @ Dom!
I think without any type of borders to hold RC's in the track we will have many problems like Eracer mentioned. I'm glad the tubes hold your truck up Bruce, gives me a chance to get around you when you screw up. We definitely should not build tracks around people who can't drive, making it easier for them to place higher. If there is not going to be some sort of restraints to hold RC's back at the new track we are going to see alot of problems. We either need tubes or boards, period. IMO

I trust Bernie also, I just hope he has some secrete way to keep R/C's in there own lanes, otherwise we may see alot of broken R/C's from people crossing over into oncoming traffic :eek:

So you guys think a tube or a board is the only thing to mark the lanes. When I started racing in 85 we didn't have tubes we race in lane build into the grass. oh ya we didn't break parts hitting tubes. Like I said. wait and see what I do.
and it would take more then tubes to keep some of you guy in the lanes.

Bernie,
Ill be there once Best Buy comes and replaces my TV (they are suppose to be out between 7-9am). Can you post the address or closest intersections so I can put it into my Nav so I can find it. Hey can we all write our names on the bricks to show we help build it. Kinda like an everlasting memorial.......

here's tiltyard on the east coast....astro turf in most spots separating lanes and boards in the occasional spot :joy:
I guess something like that would work

Yes the til yard used astro turf. but on flat ground. I want to rise the grassy islands up. let the grassy island be the tube. you'll have to see it. a lot less broken parts

how high will the little island things be??? and i was wondering im getting a brushless motor for my xxxt would i be able to run with the modified trucks. and do you think you could move the tracks maybe 50 miles north limo rides down there are kinda expensive lol jk

Sounds like a great idea!!
They do that at Glitcher's on the back straight. Too bad they dug a bit too deep and you can't see your truck as you slide into the corner. A taller stand would've probably helped also.

not if the grassy islands are placed proper, they will never move. Wait till you guys see the track, it will all be clear to you and all I can tell you is you better brush your teeth , you'll be smiling when you peep this!!!

I'll be there by eight. If you have gloves I would being them. I have a few pair if you don't. The blocks are about 50 to 80 pounds each. See you guys tomorrow. Thanks again

Bummer. I hope everyone else who's going checked the board before they left.

It's stopped in Naperville (11:15am) now. The sun is trying to peek through.

But if you make enough noise at work will you raise the dead? Did you put a lock on the doors because folks were dying to get in?
