I'll be there. Got in about 450 laps in in Hickory Friday afternoon.I actually had several laps strung together that I didn't make contact with a wall:):).We have to figure out how to get more people involved.

I agree. I have been offering to pimp out my cars to who ever. A couple have taken me up on it

This has been a busy month for me, I'll stop by to say hello but can't race. Winter will bring all the offroad runners inside.

Yeah I'm willing to bet its simply not going to grow until the cold weather comes.

See you guys in a bit.

We're still here... have only run one round of heats. 6 cars tonight, so 2 races per round and a few turn marshals! Having a good time.

Looks like I will finally get to make a Tuesday night. Now it will be my luck to be the only one there.

Good to hear mike! I know Joe is coming, and he will probably bring a friend or two, and I know of 2 or 3 people coming to see what its all about.

Yes another fun night for sure! We need to find a way to take some video so the others can see what they're missing out on.

Video! I don't want anyone seeing me wearing my Cub Cowl Cup! We need to add catch fencing to the top of the walls... especially if Joe fits an X-Speed!

No x speed for now I think these cars are fast enough without it. If I could just make 1/2 the mistakes I might have a chance of keeping up with you Pedro Your car has really turned into a rocket!!!!!

Pedro and Mike; after our conversation last week I went home and started loooking at the body mounts and I now have a quiet car :).I made a pair of .010 shims for the side to side play and added a strip of electrical tape to the front mount. Now for the bad news once it got quiet Rob noticed a really bad driving habit but I am working on that now.....when exiting a turn I was letting go of the steering wheel instead of driving it through the entire turn and into the next.He heard the steering wheel springing back and forth I didnt even notice it. But i am working on that now also.The other good news I did finish within 12 laps of the field for a change in the Main.

It is amazing how many people do that... I see it, or hear it quite often. You will be smoother if you hang on to it.

Yeah. Thats the one thing that until Rob noticed it and brought it to my attention and Joe made the same comment basically, he put as you gotta drive it in and drive it out of the turn.That really made it click.I never really could understand how someone could say something like it doesn't feel right.Well after giving it some thought I guess I couldn't when at most every turn I was disconnecting myself from the car.Thats what I really like about our group every body is willing help out when and where they can.So now i have to work on my connection between me the TX and the car.Should not be too hard Ive never had this issue with the Heli.Too scared to let go of either stick:).

There was none; just Mark and myself so I told him to go home at closing time and went back home.

Who all is coming tomorrow? I'm pretty sure Joe and Rob said they should be able to make it, as of Saturday.
