2012 TAMIYA VINTAGE OFFROAD NATIONALS • SEPT 15-18TH

I'm really looking forward to it!

The plan so far is that the club IS going to have their weekly dirt oval racing Saturday night so anyone that has dirt cars bring them down. We normally run 17.5 outlaw but we'll run anything that we have 2 cars for and a few of us have big boys toys sprints as well. Where in the past you had the track owners hitting you up for "club racing" for what you were there racing anyway, at least this is something extra that you can do if you want! I really do hope everyone has a great time. As the Secratary and a member of the club it really does mean a lot to me to have it at the track this year and I'm really excited to try something totally different!

[MelvinsArmy]

Cool, I've always wanted to see an R/C sprint car race! I've been to Knoxville and seen the big guys, it'll be cool to see the little guys.

Hey Erich, does the race track have a hobby shop on site? I think I'll need a new battery, just seeing if I should order one or wait to buy it at the track.

[Erich Reichert]

Because we're racing at a club track this year, Wolcott Hobbies has been named as the offical hobby shop of the 2012 Vintage Offroad Nationals. Lester and the crew from Wolcott Hobbies will be there with their mobile hobby shop all weekend for anyone that needs... well ANYTHING. You can check them out and give them a call if you want to order something ahead of time at /www.wolcotthobby.com

Any track pics? Won't be long!!

[Erich Reichert]

Funny you should mention that, we're doing the track tomorrow so I will this week. Does this mean you're coming to the race this year finally?

It's a slight chance this year, but I spoke to the wife about it for next year (our daughter is still an infant) but, I still want to see it come out well and am excited. Hey Brian, if your heading out your more than welcome to run my buggy!

[bearrickster]

Well with my step daughter going off to college this month out of state, their wasnt enough funds form me to make the trip this year. I hope you all have a great time.

[kaiser]

i'm kind of in the same boat rick, i most likely will not be able to attend this year. bummer.

[Erich Reichert]

I'm sorry to hear that you guys. Two of my favorite guys.

On another note, TRACK IS DONE THIS WEEK!!! If you go to the facebook page you can see some pics that were taken before the jumps went in. SInce the picture we've adjusted the layout to be a little more interesting and we've been building jumps all week. The track will be open for anyone interested in coming down to run on saturday. It'll just be open practice. See you guys soon, only two weeks left!

[kaiser]

i'm not out 100%, still trying to find the time. it's my favorite event of the year and i don't want to miss it.

[MelvinsArmy]

I'm 100%. I'll probably head up Saturday morning. Just finished my Clod, and the Scorcher is pretty much ready too. I'm ready to race!

[kaiser]

i got it all figured out, i'm in! see y'all friday for some practice!

[soniccj5]
