Hey Tonia is there still room for me I have a SC 2WD and a stadium truck 2WD ?? I would normally do QA that weekend but we start our holidays on the 16th. We are at Coombs for a couple of days so it would be perfect. If there is room for me I will book 1 more day and change Saratoga Beach and push it back 1 day. I will have to bring my RV on Sunday, I hope there will be room to park it and I will have to leave as soon as I am done racing. Thanks Don
PS you already have my transponder numbers in your computer, I will send the numbers if required.

Hi Don,

Still got room for you, I don't need your transponder #'s.

As far as the trailer goes, you're more than welcome to park it in our track area. The race is not here though, it's at the VIEX in Nanaimo. I think they do have very limited space for RV's but I'm sure they're booked up already.

http://www.viex.ca/directions_vancouver_island_exhibition.html is the race part of the fair as parking looks like it will be an issue. what part of this area are you going to be in and will it ba accessable to vehicles?

gotnitro · August 13, 2012, 11:01:04 PM

whats the rule on shortcorse wheels? Are 1/8scale buggy wheels ok or is that cheating.lol

Aravan · August 13, 2012, 11:09:04 PM

I am 99% sure its against the rules, you wouldn't think it but they give a large performance gain over SC wheels, plus they don't look scale.

BigDawg · August 15, 2012, 04:42:21 AM

Hi I was wondering about the in and out rules for this I understand we need
to have all of our gear dropped off by 8am on Sat but what time are we
allowed to come back in to pack it up on Sat

I'm going to be racing in the RC Car exhibit.

Gorden

QuoteThere are no Vehicles allowed on grounds after 8am. When you're finished on
Saturday we have a gator that can take your stuff to the Exhibitors Gate .
