Guys, Gary and I were at he track yesterday and let me say the bite is unbelievable. Gary will have the racing surface unlike anywhere you have ever run on. It is smooth and very very sticky, I would guess the sand content of the clay is below 3% it takes water very well and holds it a very long time.

Bomber class racers, we would love to have you come race with us just need enough show up to have a class. We would use the same rules used at White house Tn. track. I would say we would need 6 to 8 as a minimum number of racers to make the class and would pay back same as all other classes.

Any chance of an 1/8 electric class? Are there any other electric 1/8 scales out there? There are rules for the class so I'm hoping.

If enough 1/8 scale electrics show up we will run this class as well. We would need 8 to 10 racers to make the payout attractive enough but this number is open to discussion.

Guys, I made a run down to this track Sat... Gary has done one heck of a job making this track a monster.... It is high bite, through and though.. The folks down there have been working very hard to give you a great facility to race at, and I'll tell you; you will not be disappointed. It is race ready, and it is fast, and fun...

Hope that you all can make it out... Should be a really good time.

Oh, and by the way... The hobby shop at this track may not be the most race oriented, but it is the biggest most well stocked, coolest hobby shoop I have been in!!! It is awesome! Bring extra money with you, because I promise you will find something you want in this place!!! I was in awe when I went in there!!!!

See you all very soon!!!!!
