USRA West Coast Race
Hey Guys,
Just trying to get everyone up to speed and fired up about the last Giant Scale USRA race of the 2009 year. Oct 15th - 18th at Rabbit Dry Lake Bed in So Cal near Victorville, Ca. Racing starts on Fri at 9:00. We are expecting 60-70 planes again this year and for the first time in a long time close to 20 Unlimiteds. Even Bi-Planes are expected this year. If there is more info needed go to the USRA web site: usrainfo.org , and click on the link for the west coast race venue. We are also hosting Sat anoon time Car drag complete with a christmas tree starting system with the finals on Sunday noon time just prior to the Gold and Silver trophy Air Races. I hear there may be a full RC Drag Rail set up with a Bully 75cc gas engine- FASTTTTTTT!!!! It promises to be a great time for all. |

Re: USRA West Coast Race
So, what's the scoop on this??????
Is Rabbit no longer a "dry" lake???? after this rain storm.... Is this thing still on??? I'd like to come up from LA to watch, but if its cancelled, then I'll go fly at Victorville... |

Re: USRA West Coast Race
God only knows that all your planes would take a couple days to clean. Has a towel or any cleaner ever touched that 260? I think not!!! I am not volunteering for that job!
