The race will be at the Gaithersburg P&R this weekend. We will start practice for the longboard slalom at 10am.

Longboard racing 10:45-11
Traditional racing - 12
Spec Class - immediately after trad.

Longboard will be the best of two runs - single lane

Traditional will be 2 qualifying runs on dual courses. We will run a bracket of 16. If you do not qualify in the top 16 we will have a b-class bracket of 8 for positions 17-24.

Expect a box start with enough room to get about three pushes to the first cone. The course will be tight-ish simmilar to the one set last summer that everyone liked.

Spec class will be same as traditional. Same course.

Everyone knows by now that this is an outlaw race. Pads are optional. Skate at your own risk. If we get shut down by the MAN there are a few other outlaw spots around Gaithersburg that we can use as a backup.

Directions:
Take I270 north from DC to Exit 10 (Clopper Rd). Go to the 2nd traffic light and turn right onto Quince Orchard RD. Go to 2nd traffic light again and turn right into the P&R lot. We will be in the upper left corner.

Any of you guys that are heading up to Brain's race in NJ on Sunday are welcome to crash at my place. It's not far out of the way and beats a hotel or driving all day. I live about 1 hr south of William Patterson U, I think.

Unfortunately, I can't join you guys in G-burg on Sat and I can't be at the race on time on Sunday. I do plan to get there as soon as I can though. Nevertheless, my door is open if any of you want to get most of the drive done on Sat night. .....So Dave, Aaron, BP, Vlad...let me know if I need to have cold beer in the fridge on Sat night. (like I dont already...) ...goes for you too, Rick and Tom.

I'm there!
I'll put up a set of shiny new Red 72a Avilas to the winner of the longboard slalom.

Looks like this weekend might be a dry one for a change. But if for some odd reason it rains, I say lets show up at the Quincy Parking Deck and slalom with the Devil himself.

I ran cones for the first time there tonight and I could barely get 20 cones in at 6' but after a bit, it started to get fun. Though that might be that I have not run cones since WV but in a pinch, "Grunge Garage Racing" is better than sitting at home in front of the tv in NY, NJ, PA, VaBeach, or the DC area.

BTW, when I was running cones at the Quincy Parking Deck tonight, the drunk ass hash runners were partying up after a run. Must have been close to 50 of them there w/ the suds flowing.

Just wanted to throw out an idea for debate.

Since the first 2 of Brian's DC Summer Outlaw races were rained out, what about an indoor backup site for race #3 next weekend? Would the Quincy Parking Deck work?
