RE: Central VA Race Club
Send Scott a note and ask him if he'll look at it on Sunday - you may have to buy him a beer - but if you ask he will more than likely help you out. I'll take a look at it too - but Scott is the king of fine tuning.
Hey is your track mostly hard packed red clay/dirt? Gets a dusty layer after it has been run on? Thinking about tires.

Hey All -- Spoke with Scott a short while ago -- he can not make it tomorrow (Sunday) - but Amanda and I still plan on showing up. Wow - you guys are tough, one qualifier and then the mains--- oh well that's cool.
Just a reminder that I will be brining my 10th scale stadium trucks for sale if there are any interested buyers. Also would like to talk to someone regarding your club and find out how it is set up and how it runs etc...
See 'ya tomorrow

RE: Central VA Race Club
Wow! Today's race sounded like a winner! I am so sorry I missed it! My deepest apology to to Amanda and Mrs.Braxton for not being in attendence today. I have a bad cold and could not risk being out side for hours at a time. However, I will be ready in the spring you can bet the farm on that!
I was really pleased to hear that C-ville folks came on down and raced and all the reg's showed up plus some new folks too! What a Win Win situation at today's CVRC race. Good fun, Good friends and most of all Good Racing!
Before I go I must say " Congradulations to Ms.Amanda for showing my husband who rules! Girls Rule!".....just kidding ! Good Racers rule! Amanda you are one of the top and I can't wait to join you!
Congradulations to EVERYONE who ran today with CVRC, you ALL are the best!

Hey Mike -- I don' t know if Kevin (Dockman) can make a copy of the software we use up here - but I will ask him. Not sure what system requirements it takes but I'll ask.
I know that Scott and Kevin are the only ones here that know how to use the counting program -- and when they do they can't race. That part is a pain. Yeah - you need to get out there with your buggy. I was watching you with your Revo and you were very smooth - lots of control -- a buggy should be a breeze for you.
You guys should carpool it up here to race some time.

RE: Central VA Race Club
Hey All -- Joel here from Charlottesville...
There is a race at Scott's track Sunday. Start time is 1:00 p.m. and the fee is $5 per entry. This will not be what we call a trophy race - we run all of our races the same way each week -- it's just that once in a while we have trophies - but when we do it costs a little more. The money from this race will go towards track maintenance (pipe, calcium, water bill etc....).
Y'all are welcome to come on up and race. It sounds like it will be buggies and trucks. Regarding the trucks - it will depend on whether or not there are enough to race. By trucks I think Scott was thinking of the MTs -- although if you want to bring your 10th scales they may be able to run as well - not sure on the stadium trucks, let me know if anyone is interested and I'll check. My thought was this is a great opportunity for some of you to come up and race your buggies and not have to worry about running the race which is a full time thing.

RE: Central VA Race Club
Mike,
We need to get the guys opinion on how we want to run the points series. How many races? How long a time span? and most importantly the PAYOUT. WOO HOO.
If I can get the diff rebuilt or pieced back together, I might try to run a bit this week-end. If you can, we'll try out your buggy.

Cody,
Scott is having a race at his track in C-ville this Sunday. I'm not sure of the time, but you can check out the last page of their thread to find out.
It was great having you out racing on Sunday. I hope we can do it again soon.
