TRUCK AND MAYBE SPRINTS...They switch tracks from oval and road course on different weeks. Have to check with Brad at HobbyTown to see.

I will do anything if there is plenty of car to race a class I have always said that I have 2 tracks one inside and the other on asphalt behind the store that we set up and take down on Sundays. I can do anything with either as far as set up. Are they small? Well there not Omaha but we always have fun and that's the name of the game anyway.
We use an I-Lap infrared counting system and the transponders are $5 dollar to rental or you may by one for $40.
Cost per event, indoors or out is $8.50 per car the 3rd car is half off.
Friday night’s racing starts about 6:00 and the rules are as follows.
1/10 Touring 17.5-- sweep tires and any 17.5 motor and (no esc timing) 1/10 VTA-- has to be a 1/10 4wd touring car, 6.9FDR, motor has to be a Novak 25.5 for the motor and the speed control can not have timing and you have to be able to show that (by blink mode) and has to be approve by brad at HobbyTown, late 60's early 70's body, hpi has the most popular body’s, tires are hpi4797 for the rear and hpi4793 for the front, rims that fit them are the vintage rims from hpi, weight has to 1550 grams with body and battery, can't be any lower the 5mm, also have to have a driver figure in your car. 1/14 carisma or recoil with approved motor everything else is open. This fall we are working on getting a 1/18 pan car for Fridays night as well.
The remaining Sundays we will race outdoors are: July 8th, 22nd, Aug 5th, 19th
The outside is a lot more open with the rules and if I can get 3 cars of one class to show up and race we will try to run them separate, if not we will try to run similar cars together and make the best of it. The outdoor racing just hasn't been as consistent so the classes vary a bit from week to week and we make what shows up work for everyone. :-)
