First Carpet Club Race, Saturday October 4thSaturday October 4th evening is our first carpet club race. Doors open at 4:00pm and track setup starts at 4:10pm. All local racers are expected to help with track setup (reasonable exceptions are fine). Some notes:
- Extended Practice: We'll be running an extended practice session on the first night, followed by an important drivers meeting, and then two qualifiers and one main. Future race nights will run three qualifiers and one main.
- Tables/Chairs: Bring your own folding table/chair. Eagle Ridge has a very small number of tables and they will be prioritized for the club timing table etc.
- Payment: Cash and E-Transfers are accepted.
- Traction Compound: SXT is the only permitted traction compound.

Fun First Club Race!
Thanks to everyone who made it out for racing on Saturday. We had a small turnout but still lots of good racing. We scheduled extra practice to allow everyone to adjust back to carpet racing, and then we ran two qualifiers and mains.
Big thanks to Matt Y for joining us! He ran his first RC laps in a long time and he also was part of Paul Y's pit crew. It's always great to see Matt.
Big shoutout to Paul for a career performance! He ran his dad's car and made it look very good, eventually bumping up into the 12th Scale A-Main. Awesome work Paul!
Ryan P made his first 12th Scale A-Main as well which was another impressive milestone. Keep it up guys!
Nice work to Phil C for qualifying 4th overall in TC. Great run there!
It was nice to see Sue L running on the carpet track for the first time. She did super well given how different it is compared to pavement racing.
Next Race is Saturday Oct 18
The next race is Saturday Oct 18. Doors open at 4:00PM. We will run a full race program with three qualifiers followed by the mains.

Fun Race Night!
Thanks to everyone who made it out for racing on Saturday. We had a good turnout and lots of good racing. After running a little late, teardown was definitely some sort of record with absolutely everyone pitching in. Let's keep that going.
Mark L earned the consistency award with some really clean driving in his qualifiers and his main. He won the TC D-Main and made his way into the C-Main which was awesome to see. Cameron also put in a good main and took the second bump spot.
Tim B threw caution to the wind with his TC motor and ended up winning the B-Main with a solid effort. Nice work Tim!
Dan L has been the one to beat early this season in TC, and he put in another good effort on Saturday for a win.
On the 12th Scale side, Dalyn S has been largely dominant with great driving and a killer car setup. Craig R and Jarrod H can get similar lap times but haven't matched Dalyn's consistency yet.
Daryl J was back on track after several months and ran really strong, and Paul Y backed up his previous race performance with another 12th Scale A-Main showing. Awesome work!
Next Race is Saturday Nov 1
The next race is in two weeks on Saturday Nov 1. Doors open at 4:00PM. We will run a full race program with three qualifiers followed by the mains.

Fun Club Race!
Thanks to everyone who made it out for racing on Saturday night. We had a smaller turnout with some racers staying home to watch the ball game, but we still enjoyed a good night of racing. Big thank you to Tiny W and Nospoom S for making the ferry trip to join us!
Sam S made his IROCC debut running TC Stock which was great to see. He got quicker throughout the night as he leveraged his previous experience from racing in Ontario.
Big shoutout to Jack F. Over the last couple years he has improved his consistency and speed in a big way. It's really showing in his pace now!
It was great to see Dominic M back on the track. He too seems to have improved his consistency since last winter. Keep it up Dom!
Special mention to Carter H for running some of his fastest laps in 12th Scale yet. Although he didn't finish his main, he hit a 12.2 which is an A-Main speed lap. Nice work Carter.
A few drivers need to keep an eye on their car weight. Some of you were way under the limit. The scale will be on the table again next race.
Next Race is Saturday Nov 15
The next race is Saturday Nov 15. Doors open at 4:00PM. The track layout will be changing so we will run extended practice followed by two rounds of qualifiers and then the mains.

Fun Race Night!
Thanks to everyone who made it out for racing last Saturday. The new track layout meant for some tricky driving conditions but everyone did really well. The Touring Cars were quite good by the end of the night but the 12th Scale cars were a little more unpredictable.
Big shoutout to Brian B who bumped out of both B-Mains to mark his first double A-Main night. Great work Brian!
Matthew C had a good night, finding his way into the TC B-Main and finishing 3rd, just a few seconds out of an A-Main bump spot!
Good luck to all IROCCers attending the Kelowna trophy race on Nov 28-30!

Clik Trak Cleaning Party this Saturday Morning
As discussed at the last race, we are going to hold a Clik Trak cleaning party this Saturday morning (Dec 20) at 10am. The location is Dan L's house in the Beaver Lake Park area. I think most everyone knows the address but just send us a private message if you don't.
We have a bunch of gloves, cleaners, brushes, etc. but feel free to bring anything else along you think might work well.
Many hands make light work!
See you there.

Fun Race Night!
Thanks to everyone who made it out for racing last Saturday. We had a good turnout and lots of good racing.
Nick F was the one to beat in TC, taking TQ and the overall win. Ryan P had a good night with a 4th place finish in the A-Main!
It was nice to see Kayden H join us for the night. He hadn't raced in many years but he didn't have much rust as he got up to speed very quickly! Hopefully he and Mateo B will join us for more races soon.
Matthew C had a good run in the C-Main and went on to finish 4th in the B-Main after bumping up. Nice work Matthew.
Next Race is Saturday Feb 7
