First off-road race is in the books. I now remember why I'd rather race on-road. I just got back from the track and have to climb in the shower to rid myself of the dust.

Last week was our 3rd race in the 5 race Spring Series.  We had 19 2wd ShortCourse, 9 4x4 ShortCourse,  9 Truggies, and 6 "RWYB" trucks.  Every week we have about 5 new guys show up.  I expect by next month we'll be up to 60 trucks a race.  Hopefully the transponders and timing system show up soon.  That's alot of laps to count.  Hopefully a few more of you guys with offroad stuff can make it up for a race.

For anyone who races or is planning on racing the next week, it's FREE.  If you just want to come up and run on the truck then it's $5.
