2007 USRA Scale Nats April 9th -19th

[Joseph]

Hey Mark,

Congratulations on being awarded the 2007 USRA Nats. You do so much for slot car racing and your racers are so supportive, you all deserve to host this race.

I am especially glad to hear that you and my buddy Lou Cicconi are teaming up your tracks and event know-how to make this the best USRA National Championships ever. And I beleive it will be.

I will certainly support you guys and the event as much as I can and will invest a bit more time in my race program this coming season to be better prepared.

The races are to be contested on the Beast of the East and a Gerding flat track...that is going to produce some awesome racing.

Again, congratuations!

Hi Mark...during the recent warm-up race I heard something I may have misunderstood.

I thought I heard someone say that superwasp motors are legal in the LMP class. I visited the USRA website today and read that the allowed motors in the LMP class are Contender, Competitor, Sportsmen type motors.

Please claify for me.

Thanks,

Joseph

[mark g]

A mistake was made.

I apologize for that. Seem's a little confusion occured between ISRA motor rules and USRA.

In the future a simple Pm or phone call can take care of any of these type questions.

[CSWEATT]

will there be pit areas in the same banquet room as the tracks or where would everyone be pitting? thanks

[mark g]

There should be plenty of room for everyone to pit in the same room as the tracks.

If for some reason there would be a lack of pit space for everyone, We would ask that only those racing that day be set up in the ballroom

Thanks for asking
