The JConcepts Clash!

[Andy Moore]

Im not sure if the rumors have floated over the pond or not, but we've been working on a race. Jason posted the first bit of information over on rc10b4.com, so I figured I would relay it.

Jason:Racers of all skill level are invited to participate where "The Powers Explode" at the JConcepts Clash at Lake Park in Lutz, FL. December 7-9th, 2007.

IFMAR World Champions - National Champions, they have all raced at Lake Park. However, this event is about nitro and electric racers of any skill level. The Hurricane R/C Club has the facility and history - It's up to you to bring the driving. All the greats have raced at Lake Park - you should too!

Website with more information should be finished very soon. I wanted to start a thread so it can be the offical thread for the event.

There will be more information upcoming, and a website to support the race as well. Lutz is really Tampa, so there is a lot to do in the area, from theme parks, to hotels, to restaurants, shopping, etc. As soon as more info on anything is available, I'll be sure to post.

sound very tempting, I always like a good days racing with the sun beating down on me, but sadly, i can't go for the following reasons: I am only fourteen and my mum would think i am mad for even wanting to go, as we only went to florida in March, we couldn't afford it, and finally my dad is away in another country so he couldn't take me either. But if i could go i definately would go as i have never raced in another country before.

Is this the one Rich is going to? I didn't realise rubbish drivers could attend i might have to enter.

By the way i'm not saying Richard is rubbish he quite obviously isn't.

[PaulRotheram]

not sure about that neil

[NeilD]

Good job he's not online

[Richard Lowe]

I heard that!

[LEGEND]

Are you trying to give us the impression that I am a crap Driver I have never herd such nonsence in my life.

[NeilD]

I've found flights departing from Gatwick for £333.40. This is with one stop in Detroit then onto Tampa.

[Lee]

£374 from manchester to tampa, via new york. with British airways on justthe flight.com

Who is up for the trip then?

[AndyM]

if your paying

[NeilD]

I'm defo going Lee, we need to find out the maximum weight we will be allowed to take.

[LEGEND]

Would love to go, get a nice tan while i am there. But my mum wouldn't let me even if i convined her she wouldn't let me go. A few reasons why: She wouldn't take me, I don't have the money, My dad can't take me and i would need to be with a responible adult at all times. So i wont be going. Unless i can think of a way of getting there without her knowing and staying there without her knowing. The only problem with that is, She might notice the tan when i got back.

[Lee]

Well that stops you coming with us then

I think with those weight limits Lee I'll be bringing the 12v!

[Lee]

I never thought about the power supplies, we will need a 110v one

[NeilD]

Rich emailed Jason and i think we pay for a pitting area which is covered and with power. I believe the plan is to borrow a supply from Jason.
