Title: Remaining dates for indoor racing
Post by: Blake on February 24, 2013, 02:39:36 PM
Hi all,

Here is the current remaining indoor race schedule for 2013:

Mar  2
Mar  9 - NO RACING
Mar 16
Mar 23 - Last Race Night?  Also, WCICS Calgary for those interested.
Mar 30 - NO RACING - B&G closed for Easter
Apr  6 - NO RACING - Road Trip to Seattle for their big One-Day event.


Does anyone care if we change it slightly by racing on March 9th, and not on March 16th (Richmond race)?

Use it as credit for your family time, then you have an excuse to go racing every weekend rather than every 2nd weekend.
Or your more than welcome to go out and clean the parking lot and play by yourself.LOL.

in a couple years ill be able to make a stronger commitment to the club. when my daughter is a little bigger and knows how to not run into the track or street.

lesley is slowly coming around to the rc thing though has zero interest in cars or the toy kind.. she cant ignore it as a passing phase at this point though lol. i have quite a few vehicles already.

id love to help out but i don't own a home, and thus don't own any of the fancy frack to clean it ha.  we moving to a house this time end of this week which will make me poor for a little while. Almost doubling our square footage for 25% more rent, in a nicer neighborhood =)

Not sure if i can make any of the last races . My daughter has hockey playoffs up island and then a tournament on the mainland.  There is a chance of making this weekend but won't know tell the last minute.

With the low turn out for out doors last year, a later starting date is probably a good thing. Also a better chance for better weather.

Also, we're losing money each night we race indoors right now.  With only 16-18 people showing up, we'd have to up it to $20/night to cover rent/insurance/prizes/consumables.
