OK guys, next race is December 1.
Remember there has been a change to the day and time starting this month.
December 1 is a Saturday. the track opens at 8AM and power off at 10 AM.
Schedule is
Phoenix, restricted gearing
Phoenix, unlimited gearing
ProSlot FK
with 12 entries we will run A and B races
Don't forget to watch your tire choices and remember that the chassis must be g12 based. Last month we had a request to allow a 27L chassis in and that was declined

I think maybe we should or could rotate the classes and maybe only try to run 2 not all 3 in a day
just my 2 cents

For those of us struggling on the black lane, give us an option to take a FLYER by awarding 50 laps without being eligible for the podium. Should make for a faster cleaner race while some of us continue to practice in an effort to tame that black lane beast.

Give the program a little time to iron itself out...
As much as I like the FK class, the bad luck people have had with the motor (which I have had none. it is the high overlap which cause much of the motor failures). I don't think people are willing to revisit the situation once again. Only the racers that are running the nats are willing to invest in that class. I will prep a car for it, but there is only a handful of racers that will.
As we have seen in other cheap chinese motors, the Phoenix motor will have some fast ones and slow ones. The brushes are good for maybe three races, so it is like retro racing, the "hunt" for the "one". More racers are figuring out the setup as a lot of racers are in the 2.6-7 sec lap times now in the unrestricted class.
Someone needs to write up the racing reports and scheduling promptly, as BRP takes too long to do the race results. As up to date reporting will keep people interested and racing.
I will do the race reporting.
This last race Evan McKee won Phoenix restricted and unrestricted, and I believe with new race total laps records no less.
I think Phoenix spec and Phoenix open rolls off the tongue better and easier to type!
