Re: Urgent Message - Q40 Basin Classic

The Basin Race is in the books and while we fell short of the goal by 1 round, the 7 rounds of competition gave us some of the very best head to head heat racing I've ever seen. There was a couple of hours of "fast air" where it seemed like going sub-minute was easy. I can honestly say that at least...

Re: Urgent Message - Q40 Basin Classic

Thanks for the weather link Laird. The newest FAA contract was updated and that rule doesn’t exist anymore. We just have altitude to contend with like it’s always been and the pylon guys have been good. Generally, sanctioned events like our pylon races have not captured the attention of the Van Nuys...

Please verify the email address matches the name. Jim is correct. They are trying to open a dialogue to get $$.

Re: Q40 Basin Classic Feb 29-Mar 3rd

The Basin has been cleaned up enough to hold our event. I was there today and inspected the field and took some pictures. There is a few things that need to be done, but overall it’s in much better shape than I had expected so soon after this last rain. 👍🏻👍🏻

Re: Q40 Basin Classic Feb 29-Mar 3rd

First of all, thank you to everyone that pitched in to the flood disaster relief fund at the Basin to help them replace key items they lost. The club is working hard with the Park officials to get all the mud cleared so the field can be used again. Currently, it’s closed. They have not given me any ...

Re: Texas Race 2024 "Quickie 500 Championship?"

Dennis and others, to clarify there is only 1 bid to have TT at the moment, and it isn’t finalized yet. The 1 bid/offer was in NC on Oct 5-6th based solely on the fact it was the only option. Muncie is a great location, but adding 2 more days of racing at the Nats was a failed discussion for a numbe...
