With a rash of illness and personal issues with my locals, turn-out was on the low side this year, but I'm sure things will be better next year.

To get it further away, from Fall Brawl, in November, and to possibly get some of the ISRA racers, who run at the Worlds, I'm moving Sano 13 to its earliest date ever.

It will be held September 13-15, 2019.

The schedule, with classes, order run, and entry fees, will remain exactly the same.
 
Thursday, September 12, 2019
Pit Pass - $12 - unlimited track time.

Friday, September 13, 2019
Pit Pass - free based on race entry that day.
Tech at 10 AM
GTC-FK - King - Entry fee $30 (includes 1 motor, additional motors are $10 each)
GTC-Pro - King - Entry fee $30 (includes 1 motor, additional motors are $10 each)
 
Both GTC classes will use hand-out Hawk Retro, short shaft, RRRRRRRRR(9R's) motors.
 
Tech for both classes will be done at the same time, if necessary.

Formula 1 - Flat track (.790 /.040) - Entry fee $20 - Tech at 1 hour after GTC-Pro A Main

Saturday, September 14, 2019
Pit Pass - free based on race entry that day.
Formula 1 - King - Entry fee $20 - Tech at 10 AM (.790 /.040)
Can-Am - Flat track - Entry fee $20 - Tech one hour after F1 A-Main
Stocker - King - Entry fee $20 - Tech one hour after Can-Am A-Main

Sunday, September 15, 2019
Pit Pass - free based on race entry that day.
Can-Am - King - Entry fee $20 - Tech at 10 AM

Lunch is provided on Saturday and Sunday.

Sounds good Mike.

 

Sorry to miss out this year, I believe I've made it to 8 or 9 of the 12 so far! :D Easily my favorite event of the year. :heart:

 

You can count on my usual class sponsorship and lunch donation for the lucky #13!

I missed the last two because the site where I work has the maintenance turnaround in October. We are in it right now.

May be there next year.

Sounds great.

 

A church van, with Colorado plates, with all males in it.

 

I should start a pool on how many times you get stopped, on the way here. LOL
