    Alright racers -

    Following are the list of dates and venues for the 2013 OSS. More details are to follow regarding actual format, but at least this way you can mark down on your calendar for some fun!!!!

    May 17-19, Crown Raceway (Jacksonville)
    June 21-23, Poor Boy Raceway (Grants Pass)
    July 26-28, Crown Raceway
    Aug 23-25, Poor Boy Raceway
    Sept 20-22, Crown Raceway
    Oct 18-20, Poor Boy Raceway

    Final round (Oct 18-20) will also be run in conjunction with "Racetoberfest 2013"

    Poor Boy Raceway is almost complete and will be a fun new track for the series. The coolest part about this facility, it is completely indoors!! Yes, I said indoors. The parking will be a little more restricted for BIG RV's, but it can be arranged as long as we know ahead of time. There is also indoor pitting!!
    We will post pictures when we can!!

    Lets get the anticipation brewing and I will see everyone soon!!

    As of today we will have some great sponsors to donate raffle prizes throughout the year, they are:

    Team Associated
    Reedy
    AKA
    Team Losi Racing
    and of course the infamous, LUNSFORD RACING!!!!

    I will add to the list as more sponsors jump on board!!!

    Thanks guys (and gals).....any questions just ask. Like I said before, I will post the actual format of the series (quals, mains, etc.) soon

    Here are the classes and format that will be run this series:

    1/10 Classes

    2wd buggy - open motor
    4wd buggy - open motor
    Stadium truck - open motor
    2wd SC - open motor
    4wd SC - open motor

    All 1/10 classes are limited to a 2 cell lipo or 7 cell Nimh

    Saturday will be 3 qualifiers of 6 min each

    Sunday will be AAA mains of 7 min each

    1/8 Classes

    Nitro buggy
    Nitro Arena Truck/truggy
    E buggy

    E truggy will be handled and placed in a class accordingly to how many show up

    Saturday qualifiers will be 3 - 7 min qualifiers

    Sunday Mains

    A mains - 30 minutes
    B mains - 20 minutes
    C mains - 15 minutes

    E buggy will be AAA of 10 minutes each

    All qualifiers will be IFMAR and rocket rounds like they have been in the past

    The format will be similar to the NCT's.....

    Electrics will run ALL their qualifiers in the morning followed by nitros in the afternoon.

    Same format on Sunday for the Mains. Electrics will run first then followed by the nitros.

    The following is the entry fees for the OSS

    First class $25
    Second class $25
    Third class $20
    Fourth class $15
    If you are crazy enough to run a 5th class, then hell you can race that class for free!!

    Please note also, if you are camping and are "hooked up" to power, there will be a request of $10 per night. If you are camping in a trailer and are self sufficient. There is no charge.

    Everyone thinks tracks make soooo much money. Ask yourself this, if tracks made so much money, don't you think there would be more of them??

    I am looking forward to a good series and adding some new classes and hopefully some new faces. Even though old faces are still nice to see!!

    See you all in a couple of weeks.

    Chad

    Although I hope to see many of you guys there, I fear it won't happen since words on this forum are far cheaper these days then actions.  I do want to say that Chad is opening the track up Friday for open practice at a fee of $10 for the day!  Not bad to race on a Pro-level track that the big boys use!  Hope to see at least some of you there!

    Nope that's included, just wanted to open it up to more people who are "intimidated" by other racers and give them a day to play.
