Big Dog Comp #4 - August 25th

[Tin Soldier]

There will be another comp at Big Dog RC in Stoneboro, PA on August 25th. Run what you brung style. Mostly we will be running class 2 and class 3 scalers.


We will be starting at 10am.

OK so we are discussing building 2 courses. One for class 2 and one for class 3. Class 3 would be harder and require winch.

As I said before ilike this idea. I think we should run this comp a little more efficiently as well. Once we get there we should set a start time and run order. What do you think? I think it will speed up the process and allow for more run time for each driver.

What we do at TSSO is draw numbers from a box and that determines run order. So if someone wants to make up some bingo chips with numbers on that to set that up that's cool.
I would like to get up there maybe wednesday and see about changing up the course a bit. I want to move that lattice and make it a little more user friendly. I am think an archway over the main entrance to the course and down to the other side so it can be like a second bridge. This would allows us to better utilize the whole pile more like a figure 8. :-)

Also, we can lay out the course with different colored chalk. So that maybe we can use 10 gates for class 2 and 15-20 for class 3? I want class 3 to be hard., but yet we need to be able to sort of have both quickly setup. Know what I mean?

I definitely follow you. Maybe we could just draw playing cards. We have yet to have more people than there are cards in a single suit. (No Creation Necessary) As for a longer course that sounds sweet I like to drive a little further than we typically do.

[Tin Soldier]

I like that idea. Never thought of that.

That's why you need to come to the TSSO comps. Plenty of run time. :-) This saturday is at Rose Point campground. come on down. :-)

[Tin Soldier]

I think I wool take camper up Friday to build courses.

Sweet. I will be there Saturday and hopefully have a winch on the bug. It all depends on how fast my receivers ship to me.

[Tin Soldier]

I have some cool stuff from the TSSO club to use at this one. :-)

Ryan, just to give you guys a heads up. They redid the indoor Off-Road track. Looks MUCH nicer than before. So don't forget to take your speedy racers with you too.

Good job everyone it was a tough, but fun course.

[Tin Soldier]

I had a good time. Thanks everyone. Too bad the Bug busted a CVD I was really hoping for a negative score. That's what I get for talking smack. :-)
