I'm pretty much ready to go. Gonna make sure I've got everything together tonight, charge some batterys and head up tomorrow. Should be at the track sometime tomorrow afternoon with my Sand Scorcher. I'm traveling light this year, just the one car and a small tool box. Can't wait! 

Re: 2011 CAR ACTION VINTAGE OFFROAD NATIONALS • SEPT 15-18TH
Looking forward to seeing the Sand Scorcher run.

Hey Mike,
Come on up, let's get some racing going....there are a couple of people running short arm RC10s in classics....
I think this is gonna be the year of the "Classics", it's gonna be the second biggest class this year, I think.
