Don,t feel left out :)

There are manny more races to come.

If you really like racing and competetion you could come out and join the pack. Without a transponder in the 1/8th inferno/gtp class.(i did)

But then i loved the rush, now my Gtp viper has a transponder and i am looking to take home the trophy:first_place: offically.

Will post videos in the video section soon as the race is done sunday :)

Unfortunitely my only on road is 1/10, and no transponder :\ . I had briefly considered converting my Ofna Hyper 7 pcr pro to a GTP since there is no where to race dirt on LI, but the cost would equal close to what I could get a roller for, so I dropped that idea.

The next time the wife drags me out to Brooklyn to see her family on a Sunday I'll have to come check out the track.

Good luck in the race on Sunday!
 
I'll see you out there on the 26 With my Inferno GT. Traction should be good just have your A game I'm looking for a trophy myself.
 
Will try to get some pics of the racing only have the cell phone camera at the moment so video isn't going to look too clear but I'll give it a shot if it's worth it I'll post it up.
 
well the racing was canceled due to the threat of rain.

Hopefully the weather cooperates with us for the next race.
 
which inferno was you driving , i did not run much with my gtp, but i did run my grey dm1. was you driving the corvette,bmw,or auston martin.:)

I posting videos in the video section now :whhooo:
 
I didn't make it out at all heard thunder rumbling as I was about to get out of bed so I went right back to sleep only to wake up a few hours later to Brite sunshine and birds. Go Figure.

This is what my Ride looks like.
