Good. That means your going first on the really hard course!:mrgreen:

i agree.. sounded that way to me too."thumbsup"

Fish, Dave has some computer module or something that checks frequencies being broadcasted. That way if someone is glitching bad and racks up points and says its due to someone else on their channel, turn it on and it will tell you..

I'll call him right now to see if he can bring it


Also, looking forward to see how this format works..It would be great to see something work so well with less stress, paperwork,etc.etc.etc.

I also have one of those and will bring it if I can find it. :lol:

That's funny we have been using this format in So Cal for quite some time.

How long is quite some time? :lol::lol:
We started using it in 06 during the Winter Series. At the time I we didn't know of anyone that had used a format like that yet. Anyway it's a good system. "thumbsup"

 

[tat2INDY]

the jersey boys are coming down on thurs, so we will be there all day fri.

 

[4stAir]

just dont let the jersey boys help with course setup.... :?

 

[PROTOTYPE]

Why cause we build real courses and not Amish style PA courses.

 

[4stAir]

i have never heard such whinning about a course as i did from your club last weekend.:lol:

 

[PROTOTYPE]

Most of them are weak . And hate to stress out during comps . :lol:

 

[tat2INDY]

hey if you can complete are courses ,you can complete anything

 

[joesbruiser]

I wish the time limits on the courses were a little longer so the TN guys could build some courses that make everybody say WTF were they thinking.But with 5min. no one would make it past the 5th or 6th gate.

Doesn't mean we can't make some 'normal' gates as well. You know, toward the end of the course. "thumbsup"

 

[Badd]

hmmmmmm, so I can't build them . Is that what you are saying Joe ?

 

[4stAir]

i would like to see atleast a minute per gate... with only 37 seconds per gate that doesnt leave much time for any less than a rock racer mentality

you are right , with people driving / flying in ,spending no telling what to get here . 5 mins is a little short I think . but then again I think 8 mins is short (that's what we run SERCRC) .

Every Major Competition that I know of uses 5 minute time limits..... same as the easy Nationals courses:roll: With 90 trucks adding just 1 minute to the course adds 1 1/2 Hours to the event. There is only so many hours in the day, so unforutunitly we won't be able to build "TN Style" courses were you beat on 1 gate for 10 minutes until get a lucky bounce that finally gets you over the rock.

From 9:00 till Sunset there is 660 minutes of daylight

90 Drivers x 5 min course = 450 minutes
90 Drivers x 6 min course = 540 minutes
90 Drivers x 7 min course = 630 minutes

Its either 5 minute courses or somebody stays home, so the TN guys can build the style courses they want:roll:

I apolpogize in advance if the courses are too easy for any of you:twisted:

 

[Gatekeeper]

Thanks Mike!
Its a good system for everyone



2006, 2007 Nationals, 2007 West Coast Championship, 2007 Crawlerpalooza, and 2008 Mid-West all had 5 minute courses.



Its all right if your scared....Austin already said he wants to go first:shock: He asked me if he could drive all 3 back to back.

Dunn maybe DONE by 10:00!

Unless it is raining in the morning:mrgreen:

Apology accepted.

As of now, I think me and Joey (Rxcrawler) will be leaving about 12 unless I can talk him into leaving earlier. :lol:
