PARKING LOT OVAL

Now you did it. You made me go and dig out my and my brothers old RC10L "superspeedways", both of which were pillaged for parts over the last 20 years. But the two of them combined, made one like-new ride. I even had to whip out the mint condition manual (printed in 1990) to double check a few things. Not sure if the old rubber cap tires I have will work, only have front foams. Also, the slowest motor I have is a 10.5 (not doing the brushed thing again), so thats what'll be in it. It just barely fits. The three bodies are pretty much trashed, so if anyone has any old ones they want to donate, it'd be sweet. I should be there tuesday.

Throw it down! I doubt the caps will work, but glad to hear you're digging out a car to run. Good thing it's the "SS" and not a wide car too... that makes it at least kinda modern. I'll find a body for you to use.

Wow guys !!! Great looking track. Thanks for all your hard work and time. Looks like I have to dust off the slash and convert her to oval.

I know you guys are running the 10th scale stuff but is anyone running 1/18th sliders or late models?

Drew has been doing A LOT of work on the track- sealing, smoothing, sealing, smoothing, and sealing. It's getting better and better. The aesthetics are being worked on as well, the track just plain looks awesome. (looks like a real race track)

The driver's stand is moved back (so we can see our cars on the front straight), there's a backstretch wall, the infield is painted, and the track is a lot smoother.

We're having a good time with the pan cars... there are a few cars being pulled out of the mothballs to race with us. Dave Knox even brought out an ol' 10L. The rules "officially" are 13.5 1 cell, limited esc. But if you're just getting a car together, it's run-what-ya-brung until you get things figured out.

Looks like Nitro Shoes are gonna be the tires to use in the touring car class. They're holding up surprising well on Drew's Losi TC. Foams on the stadium trucks as well.

Now get 'em out here on Tuesday!
