19th USOWC will be at Bumps and Jumps

[Custom Works RC]

Custom Works is happy to announce that this years running of the US Open Wheel Championships will be held at Bumps and Jumps RC Speedway in Etters, PA. The date for the 19th running of this event will be Dec 8th-13th 2009. This will be the first time that B&J has hosted the Open Wheel race. Track owner Chris Mckinney has done a great job hosting large events like the February Freeze in the past and we expect that he will do a great job with this event as well. Scotty Ernst will once again be the race director and as most of you know when it comes to putting on a great show there is no one better than Scotty and the crew.

We are looking at adding a few tweaks to the format for this year that will hopefully make for a better race for all involved, more info on that shortly. Im sure the first question many of you may have is where will we put everyone. Well Chris has already started working on some improvements that we feel will be sufficient for the number of racers we expect. For time reasons Entries will be limited to 350 entries this year, this was the plan last year and will be the case this year. It is great to have an event with 450 entries but there are drawbacks to it as well. We feel that limiting the entries to a more managable number will make the event much better for those involved.

Any info that is not posted here means it has not been finalized yet, ie: classes, entry dates, schedule etc. I will post that info as soon as it has been finalized, probably Friday or Monday. I don't want to post incomplete or incorrect info but I did want to at least get the info that we do have out so you can begin making plans and to squash the rumor mills.

More info coming soon......

Congrats on the race Chris, I really enjoyed the Freeze year before last. But without a 4x4 and the point its December in PA ! Just not sure....
Will there be enough parking for everyone, especially with all the big rigs and trailers? with the snow??

[BEACHNUTTZ]

[mikeschellracing]

wow this is great news. sure am going to miss the long car ride south. chris will host a great USOWC race. for those of you that will be new to bumps and jumps, chris is the track owner and will be very easy to spot. just look for the tall skinney guy running around with the gallon sized red bull in his hand. lol.:thumbsup:

[Dave Mahr]

welcome back to PA...

[Team GFRP]

Just checked flight prices. Looks like I will be flying out no more 11hr drive.:D Now I just got to get my stuff out there...

[bumps and jumps rc]

It is no secret that owning this type of business has been my childhood dream.
It almost took Rob's post to bring me to reality that it was really here.
For Bumps and Jumps to be known as the home of the 2009 us open wheel - reminds me of when I was 12. When I think about the tracks that have hosted this race over the years, it really is an honor to be associated with them, and I am beyond excited for December to get here. I have some great people helping make the business what it is, and I am sure with all their help it will be a great event. The only thing I can personally do is to promise to do everything I can to ensure everyone has a good time. So if you see something that you are a little unsure about or something I can do better - please let me know.
See you all soon
Thanks
Chris

The average temp in mid December here is 42 high, 31 low, I can't remember the last time we had a white Christmas. I will post updated Hotel info later.

[DirtRacer]

Congrats Chris on seeing your childhood dream come true. You and your staff are a class act. I am really looking forward to having the 19th USOWC right here in our backyard. Let's race !!

[JASONHastings]

Really great news Cograts Chris you deserve this race bring on the black groove btw when will the fall season start?

[Rcer19]

hey Beach, i know what you mean about just missing the location, LOL, i felt that way when i moved to this area and Dave took out the dirt track, lol

[ksj44]

:thumbsup: Awsome news...guess I am racing it after all :thumbsup:

[signman501]

It's nice to see it close to home. Congrats to Chris and crew to get the race.

[rj14]

Was only going to race the Snowbirds.....but now it is official. RJ will be at BOTH the USOWC AND the Snowbirds!!!!!!!


Congrats to Chris and Jackie....you will now have 2 sleepless weeks this winter!

Will the PA Tour crew be assisting????

[DaBearsNo13]

Congrats 1st of all Chris! You have a top notch facility & you deserve this chance. :thumbsup:
Guys there are a lot of hotels near by & a lot of great food in the area. Campers will not be needed, so that clears a LOT of parking spaces. We have not had more than 2" of snow here in Pa in probably 10+ years. I have faith that there will be plenty of room, heck I might even just pit at home & bring the cars over to race! :D

I vote for wingless sprint to be added, you don't get much more fun than that. ;)

See you all in December!
Russ

[TRUCKER SPANKY]

no thanks this year will stay down south

[peanutsprint9]

I vote for wingless sprint to be added, you don't get much more fun than that. ;)

That would be cool!!

[brockh]

I agree with wingless! i love running them! RJ, I have made it known to both Chris and Rob that if they need anything at all to just ask, i will do anything i can. That offer will be extended to Scotty and any of the USOW crew as well.

[kkracing]

Congratulation Chris, it is an honor to host this prestigious race and its certainly due to be held in the northeast where so many of the racers hail from. I'm sure you will be successful in this event. Best of Luck.

[StaubBrothers]

Congratulations to Bumps and Jumps!!! Chris and crew will do a great job continuing the great tradition of this race and will serve the RC enthusiast very well.

It's kind of funny. I happened to the USOCW site today in my one class and I told my students I always wanted to go to the race but I didn't want to take that many days off and travel so far--They all encouraged me to go. What does that tell ya! :rolleyes:

[mikeschellracing]

work is slow, i hope it snows next week, LOL
thats funny, alittle fender bender never hurt anyone. lol:D

[teopro27]

Some people see snow, I see a reason to toss it sideways!.....hang-r-out!

[curtisp]

Congrats to Chris & Jackie and the rest of the crew at Bumps & Jumps...you guys run a first-class place and deserve to host the 2009 Open Wheel. :thumbsup:

It's looking like this Iowa racer will be attending his first Open Wheel this year...damn...I can't wait!!! :D

[Todd Putnam]

Wow - the US Open Wheel Champs is one helluva warmup race for the February Freeze! ;) j/k

What's a "warm up race"? I always thought the first two rounds of qualifying was the warm up! :p Doesn't always work out so well though....

[Teamt2c]

great News CHRIS!!!!! I am glad I get to see it for the first time almost local!

[Todd Putnam]

What's a "warm up race"? I always thought the first two rounds of qualifying was the warm up! :p Doesn't always work out so well though....

It worked out well for years if I remember correctly... ;)

The remember the first time I ever walked into Kranzel's, my dirt oval team consisted of myself, Paul Brauer, Osama Bin Burrhart and Mike Conkey - and was asked to meet and help some Brian Wreck-your-bridge kid, as a favor for Patrick Kiven of Ballistic batteries.
After watching you flounder for the first 2 rounds, I wrote you off in my mind - even with David Kranzel reassuring me, "Trust me, Brian will turn it on like he flipped a switch in the last round. We've seen it time after time..." Yeah, right.
Sure enough, you went out and layed down TQ's and records in about every class you ran in the last round!

The Breckenridge/Putnam wrath began!!!

Man, I miss those days! :thumbsup:

[jones07racing]

Well I hope everybody has fun this year I can't make it this year.. We have to work 2 weekends a year at work and this year one of those days is that weekend.. Man I am so pissed off.. Bad thing is cant get out of it. Well good luck to all.. Congrat Chris on the race I know you have worked you ass off.

Yeah I guess I owe Patrick one for putting in the good word for me. "This Putnam guy's got the motor thing figured out pretty well." I was definitely floundering trying to build, cut, and tune my own mod motors without much equipment. I still can't believe I didn't dump during that mod sprint run after you told me years later that you ran out of time and didn't even cut the comm. We were like Brown/Wolfgang for a while after that. Those were good days.

[Rcer19]

man you guys got the Brown/Wolfgang thing right, i chased that combo for yrs, lol,
1st 2 rounds for practice,and 3rd round for qualifing, alas,,, hench the nickname "Sleepy", lol

[Todd Putnam]

Wow, being referred to as Davey Brown is a big compliment from where I come from. :thumbsup:
Not sure if I am that deserving, but Breckenridge and I were a tough combo to beat for a while. He made my stuff look really good, but ya can't fire a cannon from a canoe...;)

[Fargo Flash]

I wasn't around in the really early days....but by the time I got to Kranzels in the late 90's that Breckinridge "kid" was pretty dang fast in every round! He definitely did a good job of hooking up and showing off that Putnam HP!

Colin

[Sonny B]

Cool. Looking forward to my first trip out to Bumps and Jumps.

If you guys keep this up neither Brian or Todd will be able to fit there heads in the door at bumps.:D

Joking aside I look forward to coming up north and running with you guys.



JB

[throttle junkies]

what kinda track surface is at bumps? loose, high bite clay.

[Smokinnitro]

High Bite Clay. It will groove up. last years freeze had a black groove 4' to 5' wide

[ctsieber]

what kinda track surface is at bumps? loose, high bite clay.

Its PA! all the main tracks here are high bite foam tire tracks!

[throttle junkies]

cool thats what i like. i'm just a south east boy. don't know anything about the north other than it's coooooooold. i would love to be able to make it to this race but don't know if i can. hope,hope,wish, hope.

[siggy99x]

Make the trip this is dirt track heaven around here!!!

[Todd Putnam]

JB

Nah, not at all. Brian had an era where he won something like 18? straight A-Mains in various classes at National Events. Not sure if anyone had a streak like that before - but no one has since. It was pretty impressive to watch!
Just taking a trip down memory lane. :thumbsup:

[almxdup]

I always liked the "brickmobile" and I think it should be brought back out. I've been tempted to do that Dyer's 461 scheme on my car for this year. Unfortunately I won't be able to make the trip this. I'm hoping for next year with a larger group of guys from the midwest. Keith

[throttle junkies]

any one know what day the heats would actually start?

[curtisp]

any one know what day the heats would actually start?

Well...looking at the schedule for the 2008 Open Wheel (http://www.usopenwheelchamps.com/)...heats started on Friday...not sure if this year will be the same...but that would be my guess.

[paul dietrich]

I'm so mad I will be in Kuwait than.

[iracercs]

Congrats to Chris and family,

I am glad that the race came back to PA.

Chris & Rob Cutman if you need a techman just let me know I will be here for you even if I can't race.

[Porksalot4l]

[mikeschellracing]

don't know when sign up's start, but if you want to race get in on the first day. it will sell out quick.

[irocz69]

Asked Chris last Friday about signup & he said probably in a week or two. Just have to wait & see ! I agree w/Mike though, don't wait when it does open or you'll be on outside looking in !

GO FAST TURN LEFT ! Keith S.

[Dave Mahr]

I think he is really going to push for everyone to use www.rcsignup.com (http://www.rcsignup.com)

[MRDmotorsports]

I haave my entry money ready. To Mike Shell, yes I am coming to this race. My wife said its my birthday gift :p

[mikeschellracing]

I haave my entry money ready. To Mike Shell, yes I am coming to this race. My wife said its my birthday gift :p i can't believe you would attack me like that. lol. what what the people from the south don't know is it could snow at any time in pottsville. weather might be good at bumps but will be snowing just allitle to the northeast.:D

[MRDmotorsports]

Mike... the snow doesnt stop the mail and i still have to deliver it on saturday so bring on the snow, lol. Hey I'm even staying in Harrisburg all weekend, my parents are taking couple days off to help watch the kids...

There is barely enough room but there are no hook-ups. You're on you own for power and such.

[bumps and jumps rc]

this is a pain..... Rob usually deals w/ the entries

A pain for who? :confused:
I will be taking entries this year
let's do a little simple math
assume 180 people - each keeping me on the phone for 5 minutes (which is probably low - you would certainly be at least 10 minutes :D)
add 1.5 minute to enter info into the database
add 1.5 minutes to enter the info in the the credit card machine.
this totals 8 minutes per person x 180 people = 24 hours of phone time
Now this seems ok if was all non stop I could be done in 3 days work but last year Rob and Arnie spent all week on the phone, because the phone does not ring every second, there is some downtime. Now I am only one person with one phone line and I think you can see the intelligent solution - rcsignup.com
If I were a betting man I would say your chances of signing up for the race and getting in through rcsignup.com would be better then trying to call me when I am on the phone with a long winded west virginian such as yourself. :D


This post was all in fun but I think you can all appreciate the situation.

I will be parking all motor homes in front of and behind the mobile home about 300' from the building, and there are no hookups.

[teopro27]

Will there be a list of classes? and how much per entry?

[Custom Works RC]

Classes will be the same as last year.

ELECTRIC CLASSES
13.5 DODC SPEC Sprint
13.5 DODC SPEC EDM
13.5 DODC SPEC Latemodel
Mod Sprint
Mod EDM

NITRO CLASSES
Limited Sprint
Limited Latemodel
Nitro Sprint
Nitro EDM
Nitro Latemodel

Entry Fee is $45.00 per class.

As Chris mentioned he will be handling the Entries this year and how ever he sees fit to handle that is fine with me, as long as I dont have to do it, LOL. I will post additional info soon as far as when entries will start being taking and the tentative schedule for the event. Sorry for the delay but I've had a sinus infection all week and have not gotten to everything that was on my agenda. As soon as we have the rest of the info sorted out It will be posted. I promise.

Thanks

I had the same prob with my hotmail.com account, try using yahoo mail and it will work.

[bumps and jumps rc]

I have never tried as a racer
So I just did it - it took about 30 seconds for them to send me the confirmation email.
I only tried it using a comcast.net email address.
So maybe it get's stuck in hotmail accounts.

In this area I will say Limited latemodel.

[JASONHastings]

what do you guys think will be the biggest class? a nitro class or a electric? im in for either electric late model or edm. :)Last year it was both Limited Classes so you can't go wrong their but this year I would venture out to say the 13.5 Late Model class will be the biggest.

You need to take into consideration that the 13.5 LM's will be splintered into the EDM classes. A decent amount of us who run the LM's would rather run the EDM's because the racing tends to be cleaner.

yea your right just an semi educated guess I may venture in the electric classes this year along with nitro of course.I'm just ready to get back racing my brother in law's dirt late model is taking up most of my time along with my daughter playing soccer.

[Teamt2c]

well i know that I am planning on bringing some more pan car guys

Mike G, Brad B, Jamie H, Bob R, And my self so that is 5 more 13.5 LM's Beware of the pan car invasion!

[hare004]

is it 45.00 for electric classes too

[microracer25]

Does anyone have any extra electric equipment available to run this event? I have a car that can be ran as a LM or EDM and esc. Open to all options.

Thanks

[rj14]

yes there are no more handouts w/ the new 13.5 DODC classes. you buy the equipment before the race pay the $45 and let it eat!

The one banked track that was in Carlisle has been closed for a while. The other track was at the Carlisle Sports Emporium and I don't believe they have the sprint carts anymore. There used to be 5 or 6 indoor sprint kart tracks in the area but they've all closed as far as I know.

[teopro27]

We are lucky, we have a indoor sprint kart track in Johnstown NY, just minutes from Masters Hobbies in Fonda NY. The owner of the track turned off the governers and we had a blast! wegs and the gang tagged along!

I didn't read through all 6 pages but.....

I know it's not scheduled for this year, but was wondering if there was any plans to incorporate an 8th scale Late Model class for future events? IMO the 8th LM is one of the fastest growing classes in DO by far, since it is fairly easy for an ex-offroad racer to convert.

I truly hope that one of the biggest dirt oval races of the year can figure out how to fit atleast 1 class of 8th scale in to their "limited entry" schedule especially since there is already multiple classes for both electric and nitro sprint, LM and EDM.

There is no manufacturer support to facilitate this.

Where is this the fastest growing? And what kind of national #'s do you have to support this?

Call Losi up and ask them to put on a National 8th Latemodel Nats, and see what kind of entry you get.

Some purists will argue that latemodels have no place in the US Open Wheel Championships.

I don't think that they should be at the OW. BUT, they are probably the fastest growing class in D.O. They are growing rapidly West of PA. OH is getting 20-30 almost every week at one track for one class. There were 50 + in this class at the Chili Bowl Jr. this year.

So there RJ, is that good enough numbers for ya?:p;)

Nope.........


The last time I checked on the web site, you need at least 64 cars to start a new class @ the Dreamworld.

And we all know that is the place by which all tracks and sanctioning bodies are measured.;)

[team rc]

Arent most of these cars off-road vehicles?

[Todd Putnam]

I can't see how you could add another class of cars at a race that already has to turn away entries for the existing classes - especially with a 450+ entry limit.
