Hmm, I'm not sure. The soonest I could have an idea of I could go or not would be the week before the meets... So just get a the call and info going and make a solid date and go from there.

Okay, here's the deal. They're getting a new bigger track in about a week and a half and that's when they'll start charging for use. They don't know exactly what just yet, so I'll have to call back then to try and arrange something. I'm sure if we can get at least 6 solid participants on a regular basis, we can make it worthwhile for them.

i was there over the weekend and talked to the ownerz. The new track will be for Mini Z. I dunno if they told you if the track is for bit char-g or mini Z. I think the Mini Z track is too long for bit char-g to finish one lap. maybe with the 1.0 motor

Dang.  Maybe we can convince them to let us build a track and 'host' it there or something. Eh, pipe dream. Okay, time to start looking for a new place.

Micro Hobbies Unlimited & regulation courses
Micro hobbies Unlimited has expressed interest in making one of thier stores and/or tracks available to an organized group of racers in the Bay Area, on a regular basis (perhaps monthly or bi-monthly). If you guys are interested, please contact James Pimentel at jmzpimentel@aol.com to work out the details. I guess NorcalCoug could do it, since he seems to be the organizer?
If you guys have secured a location, then perhaps you could alternate between locations, to accomodate those who live closer to either store. For example, a recurring race date at one store on the 1st sunday of hte month, and on the third sunday at another, etc... Just a suggestion.
For regulated and uniform Time attack trials, take a look at the official QFM BitChar-GP (Grand Prix) race courses A & B. These are designed using the official Tomy guide rails and pylons, so that it may be constructed uniformly by anyone, anywhere. This will result in standardized and more objectively quantifiable results bec you are all running the same course. The idea is the same as the BitDra-G regulation 1/4 mile tracks (12'/20').

I'm actually already working on guidelines for Bit Char-G Grand Touring Series rules. There will be a Touring class and a Grand Touring class, with the TC being more stock-oriented, and the GT class being more open. Also, I'm working on rules for time-attack utilizing various tracks depending on the location we're going to go to. I'll post all of this info when I'm done.
Thanks for the tip, I'll give that guy an email.
