See y'all in a bit, just getting done and grabing some food before heading out. Thanks for posting info on forum for people to help out our local tracks.

Had a good time at Hal's yesterday Cool

Filled in some more ruts, worked on Hector's mini jump, and continued perfecting the new bank. Looking into digging in a bank in the turn after the rhythms. Going to need a little more man power and perhaps machine power. Thank you Hector, Robyn, and Jason for helping out yesterday. Can't wait to run Saturday Very Happy

It's cool Alex. We know you would be there if you could. Charlie was a little sad you couldn't show up and fill "pot holes" Wink

Thanks Charlie for letting us go out there and taking care of us. I can't wait to get out there bounce

Hey guys how did it go last night? I haven't missed a maintenance day since we started but had a meeting that went longer than expected.
I just wanted to encourage more 1/8 scale guys to go out(you know who you are). It's our truggies and buggies that truly rut up the track and create less than ideal driving conditions for the short course and 4wd buggy guys. I'm just saying.. Anywho, Anything new? Dirt glue Question

Wished I could have made it out there also, but the Army had things for me to do that ran late last night. Realy look forward to racing with everyone on Saturday and a HUGE Thank You to all who got to go out and help with track maintenance.

lol Brother your truck was hurting out on the back step down bounce

Even my two ton e-truggy felt the ruts. I can almost bet that's the first section the guys worked on last night.

My sons and I would certainly be out there helping if we lived closer! Me and a few guys took care of the LC track back in the day. That sometimes was a pita.. I wish we could run 10th scale mains before the 1/8th scale mains.

Duty calls and well Robert, I'm not sure anyone would expect you to drive from Alamagordo lol
The reason the 1/8 scales guys run first is a lot of them live in Mexico. Also you have to realize that though Short Course trucks are booming now, the 1/8 scale drivers have really been the consistent bread and butter for the track over in the long run. Anywho...

Guys if you didn't get the email, they were planning on working on the track tonight but after pumping the water out it is still too muddy. Eric will be working on the track during the day and the official maintenance will be at 6:30 TOMORROW. Any help during the day or after hours will be greatly appreciated to create ideal conditions for the last points series race Very Happy
