    Typically no V/C racing at the Round Up, but Jason has been known to invite folks to the shop for some racing on Sunday.

    I think the rules are pretty simple. they gotta be gravity powered.

    which sucks, because I had a pretty good idea involving model rocket motors.
    and teflon. and 1 stick of double mint chewing gum.

    that and they need to be short enough that they fit in the starting lanes.
    a standard issue skateboard will fit.

    however, I am pretty sure most inline 6 valve covers will not, unless You have some creative wheel placement and ballast control.

    Hope not, I picked up a inline Rent-A-Racer this weekend.

    ...as it goes, I have to succumb to the fact that I won't be there this year, as much as I hoped that I would.

    If you're on the fence, I urge you get off of it and make "that lil ol' show from Texas". It CAN'T be beat...

    I'll have to find me a 12 pack of Lonestar here in SoCal and hoist ALL of them in y'alls honor (and Casey's too) around Saturday at 10:00AM PST ...

    ...oh yeah and some candy'd nuts too...

    Not sure an inline racer will make it thru the slalom section of the track... and you can prolly just forget about the freestyle competition...
