Guess you guys may have heard that Nic has his track setup in my basement. i have attached a couple of shots of the layout. I think I'll be changing it into an oval (with Nics permission) for the new guys so they wont be intimidated by all the turning. It gets frustrating when you keep hitting the walls and the reverse in these dang xmods just adds to it. If anyone want to come down to happy valley and run on Nics track, let me know and we schedule a time to run.

that's a pretty nice layout there. I know all to well the exploits of trying to run the Xmods around a track with lots of turns.  |

I'm planning on it but I need to find a baby sitter before I can say for sure. Pretty good chance. What do I need to bring? Nic says a transponder is $10?

correct on the transponder.
bring whatever car you want to run. if you want to borrow the transponder for this race you can do that as well.
do you have a mini-z? or just an Xmod?

Brian,
I believe my friend Chad is going to come this Thursday also. I was going to have him over to practice a bit before he comes to race so he can get a feel for it. And yes I finally put together all 3 boxes of track (WooHoo). Anyway he will want to buy a transponder also so bring extra if you have em.

Brian,
All I have are xmods so guess I'll be running one of those. Don't feel like you need to setup a race just for me. I don't mind running with your mini-z's. Just makes me want to get one thats all.

the problem arrises when racing the Xmods against the Z's. it's not so much the speed and handeling but the Mini-Z radios are more powerful and will "washout" the signal from the the Xmod controller.
Well just have everyone that has an Xmod bring them and well race them. I'll have a loaner Z that you can use if you'd like.
