Dirt Oval Racing every Saturday afternoon beginning May 2, 2009 Organizational meeting was held Saturday April 11 at Summit Raceway The result of the meeting were noted in posts our Dirt Oval forums on both Hobbytalk.com and dirtoval.com. See the left side of this home page for links to these forums. The text of the post is as follows: Here is information from the dirt oval meeting. ------- Season opens May 2. Start time for qualifiers will be at 3 PM. There will be 3 rounds of qualifing before the mains. Here are the classes that likely look to have enough local support to be running weekly: 1/8 scale LateModel, 1/18 scale LateModel, 1/10 Sprintcar (13.5), 1/10 slider, 1/10 LateModel 4WD Open Mod (TC and Dominator type cars). Also there was talk of Slash Trucks with 1/8 LateModel bodies and 1/10 stadium trucks as possible for strong turnouts. As always 3 cars make a class. The maximum length of races for these classes will be 4 to 5 minutes. Also point series was discussed for some classes. For dirt oval racers if bad weather does not allow racing on the outdoor track that day we will be running indoors with a start time of 4 PM. There was also a discussion for the CORR Trucks. We will start out with one class but it was beleived there would quickly be enough to seperate into a Slash spec class and a more open type class. These races will be 8 minutes. Thanks, Dale.
