Just a brief correction here... Mason-Dixon is a local chapter under USLMRA; we follow the USLMRA builds, rules and safety information.  That being said - we welcome any racer from any group to join us as long as they pass the safety requirements.  We are all about being safe, having a good time and racing!   :roll:

Clarification: The above information is correct, However, one note for clarification, only one annual membership fee is required.


Extremely Successful event for April 26th evening Race - Round # 1
Track was outstanding as with the weather.
Our first FX- Lite(Mini Pro) made it's debut appearance.
Yet another GP-T arrived, as with three new members. We warmly welcome these racers guys to our family.
Shocker of the day....John "The Grubdigger" Herring had a clean sweep in the heat and the feature......ON A AP-MINI!.... of all things. He drove it like he stole it!........Seeing big Grub on the little AP...well, something about a crab and a football came to mind but we'll leave that alone. Well done Grub, you rocked!

Hey Flipper,
I sent you a pm.

Got it Joe & replied.

The Death Valley Gulch was a nasty little bump that they had us run thru for the past few years.
It really hurt and knocked the daylights out of you. After enough complaining, Last year they let me design the track so we would go around it.
Track will be all grass and will be a Road Course, one left 180deg tight turn to slow you down, and one right hand sweeper, The rest are left turns. Shaped like a big Pistol.....or at least that's what I am..."shooting" for.(bad pun) The track last year was fast a furious...not for the weak hearted.

We will start on top of a hill, turn 1 will be a fast 90deg down hill left sweeper ...turn 2 is a 180deg hard tight left heading back up hill, turn 3 is a fast right 90deg, turn 3 is a fast 90deg left, turn 4 is a tighter 90 left , then back up the hill to the finish start.

....again, this might change.

Sounds like a fun setup.  Wishing my engine hadn't acted up today when I was getting things ready. Its still halfway disassmbled and not in running shape at the moment. Not sure if I'll be making the drive to watch or not.
After getting everything else prepped I'm kinda bummed. But hey there will be other races.

It might be a good idea to show up and meet everyone.
Seeing the mowers in person answers a million questions.
