Yep, going back to my roots, racing Group 15 wing cars at JK's Grand Raceway on Tuesdays in Broadview.. That's where this whole journey started. It should say the 18th, for some reason I can't edit it off my phone, will correct tomorrow.

Side dams are optional on the GT40 and Ferrari, the Chapparal already has one up top so... Mikey can help you with the balancing and com truing, he still only changes three bucks like Koford did back in the day.

For those of you that are sarcasm impaired, none of the rules changes listed in this thread are factual. Original rules as written still apply.

I just broke in my mabuchi motor too and it went from 17891 rpm at 12 v to 19701. This new motor dyno I got works great.... Now I just have relieve a little bit of the interior to fit the extra magnets.... Ooops that was out loud wasn't it....

Hit a small snag in scheduling, asking for a bit of patience.

No problem. Denny will be racing with us on Saturday and will be showing us pictures of his new track in Plainfield. The copper is put down and he is in the painting stages.... The track should come online in the next 30 days.... It should give us one more track.
