Thanks man I knew about the one in Chalmette, all the guys from the hobby shop talk about it. I'm just getting into the race thing. Anything special I need to do to race at these tracks? Like radio or any thing?

Not really, If you have an am radio it will be hard to practice , someone else will probably have your channel, but they move people around so theres no conflict during a race , bowtie 40 tires hook up good on our track.
Every Fridy night lights are turned on for practice ( usually drinking beer and talking trash obout each others trucks)
Races start at 6:00, theres food and drinks for sale
Thers 3 classes of monster truck ( for the races)
(1) novice

(2) outlaw

(3) unlimited

If you don't mind the drive, come check us out, ask for James, i'm one of the few people left racing a savage

One of the few with a Savage? Is that a good thing or a bad thing? Is the savage that slow to race? Did you get my PM about the mods? I fix'n to buy me a FM radio with the spectrum.

Most of the people that used to race savages have bought revos, There are only a few diehard savage racers left (at our track), but the savages are still dominating the track
The classes have changed as of last weekend

Novice

stock mod/outlaw ( those 2 classes are combined now)

Unlimited ( Lightning's , one Unlimited Enginering Razor, truggy's and sad to say, if you have LCG TVP's (savage) you will run in that class with the big dogs.)

I did get your PM and PM'd you back with some links ( did you get it)

Like i said above, the few savages ( about 7 or Cool

that are racing are beating the revo's on a regular basis
I've overheard several ex-savage owners mentioning that they wish they would not have sold there savage.

They let me run in stock mod because i hav'nt raced in a while ( bought a new house) but i usually stop by the races to see whats happening.

Sooner or later i will have to run in the Unlimited class, And it pains me to admit it, but a Savage is no match for a Lightning. Even on my best day i don't see it happening.

Would Saturday the 2nd be a good day for everyone? Does anyone have a ramp that we can bring?

Anyone ever thought about the Spillway? Me and my dad go their to ride four wheelers. Best time to go there is on a weekday because no one is there and they have a small atv and a small dirtbike track for kids that would be fun to bash on they have more spots but that one is next to the parking lot and is not along walk. But if you have a four wheeler to haul stuff around on you could go to difrent parts of the spillway (if you get board on the kiddie track). And its free to ride there just a thought thought i had.

I actually forgot about the spillway. Haven't been there to ride bikes since I was a teenager.
You're right weekdays would be pretty good to go out there too.

There has to be more places we could go to bash that aren't an hour drive away.

Well who is going to be up for bashing on the 1st weekend of July?

Any one up for this Saturday the 2nd?
