RCA Point series comp #6

[Grimreeper]

Location: Stone Mountain Park attractions main parking lot

Time: This will be held on Saturday July 14th

Course Building: 8am

Tech: Starts at 8:30am

On course: 9am

We are going to be doing a little something different this time in an effort to get some more participation. For this event we are going to permit people to bring there scale trucks to compete even if it does not fall into the parameters of the rules exactly. Basically since the national invites have gone out already if you have a scaler and would like to see what all goes on at our comps, bring it out. Wraiths that have a 13.5 inch wheelbase will be fine just come on out and have a good time with the RCA guys. For anyone that has been thinking about getting a comp truck I will have mine up for demonstration after the comp (if it survives) if you would like to take it for a spin. I know it is a little short notice but try and sign up to let us know how many people might be coming.

Just letting everyone know there will also be a scale run after the comp. We can put a trail ride together near the skylift, the island, or the walkup trail. There are great scale stuff all over the big rock so whatever everybody wants to do will work.

Do you think there will be any of the newbies from Alabama going to join us this Saturday. It is always nice to meet new people with the same interest.

[hbj069]

I am not sure funerals and new babies, unfinished rigs etc seems to have a few people locked up.
