well my first qual was 37th out of 104, 2nd qual was 5th, then it went downhill. on my out lap in the 3rd qual, i hit a corner marshal who was standing in the middle of the track in a blind spot. broke a rod end and got a dns

i ended up qualing 44th overall and was in the d main. i was car 5 and at the start going into turn 1, i got punted by someone behind me who didnt get the memo that you slow down in the corner..half a lap later i got hit in mid air jumping the a triple and knocked off the track. after that i was really far behind the bump spots so i tried to go the whole main without pitting(10 mins) and i ran out at at 9:40(so close!). i dont know where i finished overall, i think around 49th. not a good finish but it was a fun weekend and it was cool watching truhe, drake and lutz all weekend

It depends on what you plan on doing with it, for the casual basher, I would use 20 (your engine will last longer too), but if youre serious about racing, you could use 30, you dont have to use 30 to race with but it gives a little extra edge..... just my 2 cents!!

Granted the motor stalled...giving him Zero control of what it did once it left the jump....never the less Impressive tho...what was the final distance they cleared ?
