Quick Pits stop saves Belgium round, LMS returns to St Niklaas!!
On Jan 23 the LMS was suddenly faced with the unavailability of the Speedlines track (See "Track owner forbids") All off a sudden the Belgium round needed some serious attention. On Jan 24 a friend called us in to the Pits for some quick repairs. In no time the LMS was back on track with a new location for the March 09-10 race.

Back to the Pits
In times off need you see who your true friends are.
For this special occasion Paul Schietekat will re open the Pits during the weekend of March 9-10.
Although the LMS is extremely happy to return to the same 8-lane track that hosted last year's Opening Round, the reason why is regrettable.
The LMS and Mr. Schietekat would like to put a stop to this period off conflict. To show that we hold no grudges against any slot racer or race organisation, all are welcome to enter the race.
