Screw the grass. Remove the hill and replace everything with good clay without the rocks haha.
Sorry Bernie but that stuff needs to be put thru a screen or something.
No pressure tho! HAHA..But I am ready and willing to help with anything if you need a hand.

I think its easier to see everything with the track at a slant towards the drivers stand, don't much care for wearing out tires so I'll stick to indoors. but i'll probably come out to meet big drivers lol (If there is any?)
LSP lots of Khz, Werks .28 8 port.
Revo 2.5, TRX 3.3 Engine, Center Diff. Fast and Turns on a dime.

well since all the guys that ran last years nats have dibs on a spot, and they are doing buggy and truggy combined with a 250 entry max that leaves prolly about 40 spots for others. Dont expect to see many locals there.....

I plan to try anyway....I dont see how they can leave the max at 250 when both classes running. Plus I doubt EVERYONE that ran last year will run this year. Different area and plus many dont run now or atleast travel due to gas prices and so on.
That is a kick in the nuts if a race like this comes to our home track and only a handful of our guys are able to run. Might as well just close the track down and make it a invite only race.

Well its the 16-19...So 4 days. So the running order would be what? Do those dates include practice days?
I agree with Tex. The limit should be raised close to 400. Now I have yet to see anything posted on the ROAR site about any changes so if someone can point them out. Great...But if there isnt anything posted...then who really knows what the cap will be set at. But I dont see ROAR making a mistake and capping this race at 250.
Like I said before. A major race like this in our own backyard and 99% of our own people cant get in would be a big joke.

I wanna go for sure, but for the most part roar is a joke; after going to the nats in st louis 2 yrs ago. Its just like an RC fag club with alot of rules that dont do shit, seemed like the officials at that race had their heads burried deep in their asses
