I got a flyer last week from the show...time to start workin:o:og on putting on a show again....

October 23 and 24.

Accoring to MCR magazine; 'a massive four lane demo track with a "National" competition'.

Anyone know what that's all about? Are we involved?

When I looked at the I-hobby website, MRC is the listed exhibitor, so not sure if they are putting on the "competition" in leiu of there not being any discussion of us being there. But like Neal said, our in was past management, so the new management may be going in a different direction... Or Ninco Bob is just taking our idea....

Are we making any attempts to participate? I may be able to help once I finish remodelling the basement.:@

Seems odd that we go from being featured at the main entrance to being a non-participant! :(

Perhaps more interesting is I can't find any mention of a "National competition" that references Ihobby or Chicago, or even a major race in October. I would think that any kind of national race should already be public knowledge. But as Neal said, if they don't call, they don't call. I also went through the floor plan for Ihobby, and there doesn't appear to be a space large enough that isn't already taken. So where are they going to put it?

Maybe I'll try emailing Bob Schleicher to see what he's talking about.

I have sent an email to the expo manager to put a feeler out on whether an arrangement could be made like in prior years where we would be able to get booth space free of charge. I would like to participate because it gives us positive exposure and keeps in line with our motto of trying to promote the hobby. We'll see what happens....

I hope we can set-up our track like we did last year. it was good for the club and our hobby. I plan on helping out again if we get the chance.:p

Guy's Neal and I have said in in the past that the I Hobby Show would be handeld By Neal for the admin aspec and Myself with the help of others for setup and tear down, PLEASE slow down down for a minute and let let Neal do what needs to be done.
