Hydrogen racing tonight here at the dome. 2 hours.. pit stops to change fuel cells as they empty. several schools racing in to the future of alternative power. These cells remind us of the co2 pellet gun canisters. Most of these kids just built these, so we have some parts falling off early.

Update! This weekend Friday and Saturday!

Spring Oval Nats is in the books. 2 tracks with overall averages determining final results. This was one of those races that you know demands a sequel next year. Thanks to all the new guys that came out, it was a joy having you. Next time will certainly be bigger and better. Our behind the scenes helpers are the key to making these races run. Jason Hainline puts in more work than any of us. From flyers to track builds. Our tech guy Art was tied to the chair for hours. Track crew Jason and Matt assemble and maintain both styles of racing. Mike and Codi announcing... And there are too many to mention on the rest, including tolerant wives and the guys that jump in when needed. We cant thank everyone enough.
