I hear 3D's work well, also JConcepts pressure points or flip outs. I'm running pink HB Beams and there really good also.

Wow, sounds awesome you guys. I will try and help anytime I can. I am definitely in on Friday afternoon if that will be any help. I work a pretty crazy schedule and have my daughter quite a bit and she isn't quite ready to man a shovel just yet but I am definitely in on Friday if anyone is going to be down there.

Great news and great jobs fellas! I pretty sure just a decent layout would have gotten people in their but what ever!!! I'm sure these improvements should get eveyone pumped and ready to bring their hard earned money to spend on a better product"track".

Yep, a proper layout is all that was really required, but most of the improvements should be awesome. I don't think that new dirt is necessary and I hope we don't have to go out and buy new tires.

KC was fun Saturday, but it makes for a looooong day. I'd much rather drive 10 minutes than an hour and 10 minutes. I'm looking forward to a great season at Jakes. I'm just glad this all happened now, rather than later in the season.

Joe - You make it sound like the track purposely waited for you to acquire everything and get prepped to race before shutting down. The guys who were running the place and racing there were trying to improve turnouts, but the interest just wasn't there. A day late and a dollar short I guess.

Exactly and we all had a shit ton of money invested in 1/8 gear and are disappointed to see the outdoor track shut down but I guarantee you nobody lost as much money as Beckwith did. Anyways are you guys going to be down there tonight I was going to swing by if that's cool.

The dirt we are bringing will be identical to KC's! As far as the track designs go..this next one will be good. We arent doing this just for the fun of it, ton of money and time!!..Its for our racers.
