The track layout was amazing, until the Main it got eat up, but still a great track.

Tons of people showed up, met some nice people as usual.

I had fun with the Jato and Revo...though my Revo is having issues with the 645MG, 5945MG and Spektrum/M8 combo that people at the track informed me the M8/Spektrum does not like Digital/Analog combinations, I'll be calling Spektrum Monday AM.

Matt was on rails with that LSP, what the engine lacked in top end, it more than made up for on the in field.

Only problem was issues with the socring for us MT guys...I got 10th A-Main no matter what, but I kept hearing the computer call "your order is, 2 (matt), 8 (me)...." and I knew I was ahead of some fast guys thanks to my great start hold then blow by method. Unfortunately the track's loop got twisted causing bad reads, and the worst part is the solution to us was less than worth the $20 we paid for that class. I know the owner of the track was sorry you could tell he was, crap happens, though I think the politics of the final choice was not what I'd do.

We are running MGR again there July 9th (Freelin MX has no way to properly hold a race) and Eddy and Gabe you guys had better be there, you both missed a great track and fun racing. No excuses.

I was robbed by my equipment...prolly 10th for me...unless someone didn't race at all or died before me...

Like I said, I kept hearing 2, 8 and well I knew I got a great start, so honestly I think I was in second until the problem came back...this problem will be fixed though ASAP.

My Truck: Revo w/ 18TM all set up...

the 9th is going to be even better for me than the 2nd. I will start working on getting it off tomorrow. too bad I already used up most of my sick days w/ an honest excuse. getting bit by spider on back of neck and almost dieing only works once a year!

What sort of spider bites you and almost kills you in OHIO?

Now in Australia, it a legitimate excuse

Long story short.. sat morning i had to go to hosp. to have blood work done again because my eye's and skin had turneda yellow color again.

Well, i've sent my REVO throttle servo off to Hitec. Hopefully that gets back soon. I need to buy a few things for my LSP, and thats about it. Atleast you're feeling better now Java. Jake, if Eddie makes it to the July 9th race, you better hope he has some mechanical failure. Hes pretty damn fast. He might push you down to the B-main. hehehehehehe Then it'll be you and Gabe battling it out... Muahahahahhaaaaa.... Atleast i'll have 2 pit guys for the A.

Jeez the harshness man.....no pitting for you...Remember I only had 1 good qualifier before 2 bad ones. 1 was a mud bath, you seen my Revo...musta been a solid 2 pounds of dirt on it, and the final qualifier I had to sit out due to Spektrum issues (same thing that killed my Mains). I'm pretty fast, but yeah Eddie's good too.

Knowing Jesse's truck has now been run it's gonna break more...he never maintains his trucks, so he's gonna be easier to beat (and maybe this time he won't be lying about the mains!).

Gabe doesn't worry me...he's a good B-Main warrior...but watch out when he fuels you he likes to mix fuels! lol

LOL. I probably cursed myself. I'll probably be the one running the mud bath qualifiers next time. That last race should have been stopped, and started over. Sacky never would have let that **** happen. Nor would he have tried to BS some make believe lap times for the results of an A-main. The track was fun though, and my trucks took the abuse i dished out. You shouldnt be soo mad about the fuel incident. With the way you and Gabe trash talk, im surprised it was fuel he put in there. lol... I think i have some purple gatorade that matches your fuel color pretty well.

Ya, i got lucky. I had a real good day. Especially for it being a totally new truck, that i rushed together. My only problems were the lack of proper gearing. I already jumped up to a 15 tooth bell, and i might have a pipe on it by the next race. Chad posted that he was going to change the track AGAIN, and have 3 different surfaces for us. That outta keep things really interesting. If i can get my hands on the adapters, i'll be running these NUBZ on my Lightning.



And i might even have another new toy for that next WOOR race. It will be fun though. Gabe has the day off, so thats another mt for our growing class right there. Eddie will hopefully be there too, so we've got some good racing to look forward to. This time i wont even bother signing up for the 2nd class with the Jato though. It was too hard to keep both ready on a 3 minute clock. I'll have it with me for fun though. If i can fit everything in my Suby. Jammin, you must have been running really rich. Those were all 6 minute Qualifiers werent they? Then again, that track is a FULL THROTTLE track, and eats up the fuel fast. Anyway, looking forward to racing with everyone again.
