    NMRA Columbus

    Who else is planning to go? Since they are running the MG event on Friday , I will be there on Thursday. Should be fun with all the track upgrades they have made.

    Will be a busy weekend running basically two events in one. The schedule right now has the last runs on Friday being done around 11pm barring breakdowns or anything rlse.

    I was considering it, but knowing now that Maple Grove will be wedged into the four day event tells me that True Street will likely get stiffed on passes and turn into a circle jerk like it was in BG last fall. I was looking forward to returning to National Trail to run again as the event last season was VERY, VERY well organized. I don't foresee a repeat of this with MG finals not being cancelled and stuffed into the four day event. So as the Magic 8 ball would say, "ALL SIGNS POINT TO NO" at this place in time.

    I do appreciate you sharing this. I am suspect that NMRA if contacted would not elaborate.

    Well they still don't have the track done as I was there this Sunday and they were only running 1/8 mile. They got a lot of work to do before next weekend. Staging lanes are nice now for sure. Still have a butt ton of rocks in the pits near the stands so be prepared for that with sticky tires. The turn out is pretty close past the 1/8th as well , kinda like Kilkare. You can go down further but it is rough and bumpy.

    If the rain doesn't hold off and let them finish it this week , there is going to be some upset NMRA folks as having to run strictly 1/8 mile.

    They lowered all the prices at the concession stand by a dollar across the board.

    Im told they are going to try and finish this week.
    I know they don't have any events schedule till next Wednesday to try and get everything done.

    Where the &*$&*@#$&@*() is kirkersville?

    Plus I thought the NMRA was this weekend. Got to the track tonight and was seeing Brandon and all the NMRa cars doing TT and I was wondering what was going on. I found out it was next weekend not this weekend. Been crazy around the house while the wifey is gone tending to her mother.
