The Dairyland Trans Fans are up to their shenanigans again and have announced the date for Dairycon 2011. Titled "Changing Steers", the convention will once again return to beautiful Fond du Lac, WI and will take place April 15th and 16th. Pre-Registration for the convention will open December 4th and close March 1st, 2011.

Never shying away from innovation, it appears that another new event has been added to the schedule. In previous years, the "World Famous" Jumpstarter Races have been limited to a Jumpstarter Pool provided by the Dairycon Organizers. This year, they have added a new division for people to bring their own! So for the adventurous collector, there may be incentive to crack open a Topspin or Twin Twist and do some "modifications".

If you haven't attended a Dairycon before, or you are currently thinking about it, be sure to go this year. The event is tons of fun and the people are amazing to hang out with.

At the Dutch conventions they were accepted, basically anything springloaded with a pull-back engine qualified.

Methusalen here and it's time to inform you that it's that time of year again! It's a balmy 22* degrees outside, there's a foot of freshly fallen snow from last night's snowstorm, and Pre-Registration for Dairycon 2011 has opened for business!

Can you post the e-mail address to send the registration to? I avoid using MS Outlook because so many viruses spread through it, so i can't get the e-mail address to show up.

Unless I get overruled, I say that he will be suitable for the Bring-Your-Own/Modified/Custom Jumpstarter Races, but not the 'Classic' Jumpstarter races (where we supply each racer a Twin Twist or Top Spin to use).
