You could probably post a link to the appropriate facebook page, it took me a few times to find it searching for LJLRC — gtaman

Thanks for running this race guys...I'm glad the modded cars are working out well for you.

I know that you are still sorting out your rules and such...and I know that you run A LOT of cars at your meetings. But I would like to make one suggestion, if I may.

If you are going to have a 'zero tolerance policy' in regard to the weight of the cars, please mention that in your rules (Brian provides a nice template for listing your races on here that lays out the rules nicely). Generally, with the races on RLD...or, at least the ones I have competed in...there is some allowance for variance in scales...normally a couple grams. The way I look at it, 1 gram, even 2 grams should be allowed just due to different scales weighing differently...3 grams. I feel, is a little too much.

I had a car that weighed 59.5 grams on my scale, but it was force to race in the 80 gram class because it weighed 61 on your scale. Traction Event's funny Car also got bumped up to the heavier class by being over a gram.

I have no problem with you having no allowance for scale variance, but, if so, please note it in your rules (I would have drilled a few more holes in that '55 if I had known).

Thanks again and keep up the good work!

Chris great point! We are talking about this going forward. I understand how all gram scales are different and we have to consider that. Thank you for your patience and that goes for all the mail in racers on RedlineDerby.

We will be ordering the medals this week for all five 1/4 Mile Monsters Class Winners. Each medal will have the winners name on them along with the weight class they won in. We will be mailing them out hopefully by early next week and we ask the winners to submit a photo of them with the medal for our monthly online newsletter. Thank You!
