First race date: Sunday June 15th, meet up at 6PM. Parking lot behind the Sports Athority/Old tweeter/home depot store in CrossGates Commons. Enter the commons from Washington ave ext. go straight between Circuit City and the Golf Galexy. At the bottom of the little hill turn left into parking lot, and park down ther somewhere. I figure the best part to run on is the top right side. If that lot isnt cleared out by then, I am sure it wont be… we can start at one of the empty lots around my office on the side of washington ave extension. _Pleas PM me your radio band and frequency… I will post it next to your name so we dont have any conflicts._ here is the link [to our local fourm.](http://boards.ca-va.org/index.php?showtopic=4666) for more information.

Yah dude. Look on ebay, there are a ton of RTR stuff out there. I spent the last week looking and found some killer deals. I got a Ofna OB4, 10th 4wd nitro touring car I will set up to drift. Check out he videos on the HPI website… under the Stage D conversion for the RS4’s. They swing out and hold a drift for ever! ---

I have a Nitro Evader ST and a RC10T3. The Evader needs a clutch but other than that it should be good to go. It’s been sitting in my room for years. ---

This makes me want to finish my .21 RS4 RTR3 project… quick car when it did go! If you’re going to do some offroad stuffs I have a brushless Mini-T, an LST and pretty tricked out Nitro Quake as well as the original RC10 gold tub buggy! If any of the above still works… I’d be surprised. ---

Yeah im definetly down for some racing. I have a HPI nitro MT 18ss. I just have to put it back together.I striped the gears on the 2 speed tranny and just never had a chance or the motovation to put it back together.My dad also has a Hpi RS4 18ss that he would probally come race too.Night racing would be best for keeping the engines cool. My dad is still having trouble with his it just gets going so fast that it flips over so he gets fustrated with it and gives up lol. But when you guys find times and locations ill get my shit back together and be there. ---

This is turning out great! There are about 15-20 cars now! The night racing would be good, like you said the cool nights make them run great. Anyone know how much trouble we would get into if we were to run behind the Homedepot parking lot off washington ave ext some night? This sunday afternoon &/or evening sound good to any of you? that will give you all a week to get everything up and running?
