Jeff, concerning the 4G Super Comp class; I see where the FED's & MTF's are minimum weight of 25 grams. Does this apply to Altered body's also?

Within a gram or two. I don't get too strict on the weight limits at the moment, but like I said they do need to be close.

Thanks Jeff, got everything weighed in today and up to spec. Needed to add 2.2 grams to the Fiat body, only made less than .020 difference.
Still will be mailing the 18th, that gives me 2 or 3 more days to do some final de-tuning . I should just leave 'em alone but I probably won't . They should run better at your track in some clear air, man oh man it's been smokey here .

Gale I don't think any of us have left a good running car alone! Most of the time we make it run worse.

I think that we are all guilty of that. The old saying over here is “If it ain’t broke don’t fix it”. But we all try , I know that I do.

Well, I got nothing that is anywhere close to competitive in either of those classes, but that’s not gonna stop me from trying. Please enter one car in each class. Maybe someday I’ll figure out what you guys are doing to make these things go. Bill your cars arrived today.

****ATTENTION ATTENTION****
Time is flying by........it is now 11 days till raceday! Everyone should be thinking about getting the cars mailed! The first couple of racers have already arrived and they made pretty good time through the USPS system. I have also mailed a couple of packages that arrived at their destination very quickly. That is good news but proceed with caution and mail early when possible.
Started getting Race Central cleaned up and organized. This week I will have time dedicated to formal track prep for the race. I will do a deep clean and check every connection. I had wanted to get some new grandstands up with peeps but ran out of time. Will have them in place for next Season. The race is shaping up to be a good one....especially if everyone shows up. I'm sure track records are going to fall. I will start unpacking cars on the week of the race. Soooo get those details wrapped up and send your rocketships to North Texas.

Well, there’s always the beauty contest.

Bill you never know what these cars will do. I have taken a car out of the box that has been stored for months and they will run like crazy. I have also had them fall flat at times.
