The rain has prevented much progress on the track. All the dirt seems to be there, but it is a clumpy wet blob of mudd that needs time to dry out some. The first nice day was Saturday. I don't think much has happened sice.

yep we have put a lot of new dirt in there it should make for a great racing surface.if we can get a break with the rain jeff can get it down.i dropped off a load there tonight and where the track is going to be was nothing but mud and standing water. lets hope for some sun and a good breeze so we can go racing... :greenflag::whiteflag::checkeredflag:

Once the track settles it will be awesome. Jeff still has plenty of work to do to finish her up. But I realy like the size of it and the width in the turns. Three wide coming out is always cool. Thanks Jeff for your supporting RC racing. Billy Stevenson has a 8th sprint and so do I. Now who is gonna be next. Three makes a heat? Hoping to get mine together for next Saturday and trade some paint with Billy and ??? ;)

Hey Donnie,

Thanks...

Hey Donnie,
Did you guys get a chance to run the sprints yesterday? Just curious how they are.
Thanks...No. Mark we didnt get to try them yet. I might get mine together before next Saturday. I havent received my tracking number from Nitro House yet. I should hear something tomorrow. Billy had his at the track working on getting it put together. Wow it is way cool. The tires that come with car are the spec tire at this track. I havent checked to see how many choices they offer for this hot rod. I think we will need a different tread design for up front. Billy and I will be posting soon as we get some track time with these monsters. :thumbsup: :revs: :greenflag:

I would like to offer a great thanks to track owner Jeff G. on taking the track to another level. This track was great dry or wet. During qualifying he watered the track and it was great. We let it dry later in the day and it was great.
As the track goes thru changes it is only getting better. Thanks again Jeff for giving us a great place to race.
I also want to thank everyone that helped me yesterday with setup as well as getting the car on the track.
Lastly I thank everyone for the great racing yesterday.
I had a blast.
See ya all in a couple of weeks. Good luck to all the CBRCR boys on your trip to the ONS race.

Jeff,
This is a link to a friends backyard dirt oval in Kenton.The walls aren't that high, just enough to keep cars on the track. A post hole awger and some 12 inch rips of 1/4 in inch glossy 1 sided ply. This all could go up in a day with some help. I have a table saw.
