Default Dates for 2017 Indy Show?

Been checking online and haven't found 2017 dates for the Indy show. Anyone know what they are? Us newly retired guys need to fill the calendar ahead of time!

Thanks.

Ken

might not be one. I read in this months toy trucker that the remote control section will not be there next year and that they are looking for another hotel because the hotel raised the rates.

The only year I went to the show was 2011. It was the first year I was building my Wedico Peterbilt, I went to meet Garden Trucking, PMD, Ric Murphy and buy a bunch of parts for my truck. Funny, Ric didn't bring many Wedico parts at all! I don't believe Ric even goes to the show anymore, does He? Hard to believe that was so many years ago already.

Retired?! Good for you Ken... resurrecting the build of the PayHauler 350 anytime soon?

PMD dropped Indy a few yrs ago, too far to travel alone after his wife passed. Ric now does the LA, Ca RCX Spring show.

From what I've heard about Indy, the few guys involved in organising the Indy rc minitruckers are getting charged a hefty $ rate to set up the city when there's nobody in the group there to sell anything commercially to the public All the other public shows country wide that rc minitruckers attend, the space is free with complimentary food tickets & other trinkets, the promoters want them there as added entertainment to boost attendance. Maybe a yr or two without the rc minitruckers @Indy drawing in the public through the door sales will give the events coordinator an attitude adjustment & space will be provided at no charge.

I'm sure the guys will get something figured out for our annual event. Yes, Joe, January 4th is my last work day and the Payhauler is #1 on the list of projects. Won't have much more accomplished before Cabin Fever, but I am going to it for the first time.
