Getting Caught Up

Tue Aug 7, 2007 11:39AM

I'm back in Texas now after being on the road for 3 weeks. I'll be trying to get all the results from the Onroad and Offroad races that I'm behind on. I had very limited phone and internet connection while I was staying in Illinois, I had to go into the Barnes and Nobles each day to get as much done as possible before the laptop battery died.

I also have a lot of membership cards that were delivered to me while I was traveling. I passed a lot of them out at the races but still have a lot to mail out.

I will be confirming the location and details for the Nitro Offroad Finals either late this week or early next week. I got the pricing after I left for my road trip and I still have to complete the paper work. It will be indoor so no chance of rainout. The dates are as listed on the schedule. The format will be the same as last year - track build on monday the 5th, practice on tuesday & wednesday, quailifying for Gas Truck, Intermediate and Expert Arena Truck on Thursday, qualifying for Monster Truck, Expert & Intermediate Buggy on Friday. Some lower mains will be ran both days depending on turnout in each of the classes. D-A mains should ba ran on Saturday. The awards banquet will be on Sunday. The location will be Alvarado Texas - 25 miles south of Ft. Worth and 45 miles from DFW Airport. I will be visiting the local hotels to set up deal for our event late this week and early next week and I will be posting those details too.

thanks
Carlton

Maybe I should know this, but never have traveled by plane for an RC race.  How does this work? Can I travel on the plane with all of my gear? How do I pack it?

You can't take your fuel and will have to buy that when you get there. Most times you can get through security good but occasionally you get someone who is real picky. Clean anything that has had fuel in it! You should be able to carry your car on as one of your carry ons. Tools etc will have to be checked luggage. If you want your tools locked up you will have to wait while they inspect it and then lock it. Don't carry on glue, shock oil or any other liquids, they are okay in checked luggage. Take an RC Magazine with you in case someone doesn't understand what the car and radio equipment are.
