Neil.
Either one is fine with me. I will be back on the 12th so might be able to put a car together for the 13th.
13th in fine for me
I should be able to get my car together for the 13th.
13th. I dont even remember the last actual race day. I guess one more week wouldnt kill but lets get to it!
NO MATTER lets make sure everyone comes so we can have a good start to what could be a very short season if we cannot find a place to race. :-\ :-\ :-\
20 th
Do we have a date?
13th the more races the better.
I want a new car, so that puts me at the 20th.
Nov 3rd is my pick.. :( Wont be back until then..
Shawn
Hey all,
It's basically a dead heat between the 13th and the 20th. Personally, I'm leaning toward the 20th as it gives a little extra time to get ready. Let's give it another couple of days and we'll make a final decision on the weekend.
Blake
I am changing my vote to the 20th, don't think My parts will come in time for the 13th.
WHAT DO YOU NEED FOR PARTS?
Motor, esc, battery, voltage booster. Basicly everything but the car and servo.
if it comes down to it.. i have a tekin 17.5 u could borrow if needed.
I have a battery you could use for the night if needed
Gorden
I have voltage boosters.
Neil.
Hey a bunch of us nanaimoites would be there on the 13th
Thanks for the offers guys, but I would rather not run on borrowed electronics, done it before and it never ends well.

It works well for me! hahahahahahaha ;)
Do we have a date yet?
Hey all,
Let's kick things off on the 13th since it sounds like there are some racers from Nanaimo that would like to join us. I have all the traction wash and I'd like to get it distributed to those who need it, and I am away on the 20th for work. The 13th will NOT be a points night - but we'll run at least two rounds of qualifiers and mains after some extended practice for everyone. If your car is not quite "together", bring it out and get it finished up at the track. If anyone needs help with wiring, car setups, rollouts, driving, etc... this will be a great night to do that.
Oh, and Jarrod's car will be the target since he'll be the only one with a new car!
Official classes will be 12th Scale 17.5 and 18R, but bring your WGT for some practice, or if we have any extra time.
Traction wash is $10 per can.
*** I need someone from Nanaimo to take Matt his order of traction wash if possible.
See ya there,
Blake
not sure if ill be able to make the 13th.. but ill try.. ill also have to do a bonsai run upto nrc fri/sat morn if can make it.. hopefully theyll have my new 17.5 in by then ..duo3.5

Hey Gerry,
If Craig doesn't have his order yet, I have a couple of sets of Fronts left from last year. I'll bring them along.

J-Rod, make it happen; I'd love to see the new car in the flesh.
Blake
anyone got a set of new tires i could borrow, and use to trim my new body? i want to cut it out before i paint it..
Hey Jarrod,
I have a set. I could possibly meet up with you around 7:15PM on Wednesday.
Blake
two cans of wash for me. I seem to have inhaled that crap last year. im still on the same paragon from when i started racing, but almost out of TWO jack cans ha.
Good chance My car might be together, even if its not I will be there to buy traction wash. I was sad to hear the B&G club is moving as this is the first racing that is close to my house, within 5 minutes.
Sounds good Blake. Thanks
Car all back together but does craig have any tires for sale yet? All i have are missmatched rears no fronts for indoor and my outdoor set which im told wont work well indoors ha.
Craig has a big order of tires on the way, but there is no guarantee that it will arrive before Saturday. I have a couple of sets that I will bring on Saturday for those in desperate need.
Blake
sweet i can't wait. gotta get the car together.
what time do we get the gym for setup? 3 or 4?
Technically, 4PM. However, let's try and show up earlier since we'll have a truck to unload.
Blake
Just got word from B&G that we can get in at 3:30PM. Let's be there a little before then to make sure we're ready to unload the truck.
Blake
FYI I have two sets of tires I will bring as well in case someone is in need. (black fronts and grey-lo rears)
anyone got a spare 17.5 motor i can borrow for the night? i dont think my new duo is goin to be in in time..
What time are you setting up the track on October 20th?
Thanks,
Colin
