Does anyone know of any events like this on the west coast?

The battery options are interesting. Sub C NiCd is heavy, but an SCR pack can put out a lot of voltage when at peak charge. Presumably 2S lipo would still be the preferred choice. If only this wasn't so far away.

Bring on the carpet! I'll bring a Digger

That's the part they might not have thought through, do people signing up for 5 classes get 5 shirts, 5 $50 buffet tickets, and 5 abilities to purchase the promo kit they will have? Seems odd that it's being done this way
