Looking forward to seeing all my partners in crime again....

I too have been spending money like it was water on LiPo's and more brushless stuff. I rationalized these purchases by convincing myself that they were necessities, leaving me extra time to devote to track committee duties!!!

Whatever this year holds for us all I'm sure we'll all have another great season.

So now I'm into the process of doing all the maintenance and set-up in advance of opening day!!!

I only hope 5 weeks will be enough time, LOL!

I watched some videos of last years action and I wonder has the track layout changed much? Ive watched a couple videos of other tracks and some seem to have a lot of ups and downs, off camber turns etc and I didnt really notice anything like that in the Sids videos, track seemed fairly 'flat' for the most part..

Just my eyes playin tricks on me?

im gonna get SMOKED by you guys

2008 will bring a complete ground up rebuild of the track layout, contours, off camber turns, elevation changes etc... Another area the committee will be concentrating on will be track surface. Our goal is to have a great layout without the ruts that plagued us last season.

Get your electric off road vehicles ready and be prepared to have a smile on your face from ear to ear!

I just got my Kyosho RB5 and Losi XXX-T this christmas, so I have never runs at Sid's. I have been to fastcats and I love running the electric. This year will be my first experiance at Sid's Raceway. From the sounds of it, it is a blast. As soon as the track opens and it warms up, I'll see you all there!!!

I get to try out the BJ4 that I purchased (pre-owned).

It is going to feel great to get back outside for some dirt racing.

Yep, Hobbyhobby is getting a lot of business from me lately. Stocking up on spare parts the new XXX-T CR. Plus I will be running my B4 more this year too. I can't wait to start work on the new track design with the new surface. This will be by far the best year by far for Sids.

I think track work will start to begin in a couple of weeks. Ya, Gino will be the man to look out for this year too.

Well I ended up buying a b44 after not wanting to because of $$$$. But so many people are running in the class now I didn't want to miss out on all the fun!! I got a B4 for the hobby show didn't like it to much then. But I've have quit abit of run time in the U.S this winter and I got it hooked finally. At least theres alot less snow from those pics, then there is around my house and I'm only 40 mins away.
