Jammin at the races
I took the Jammin CRT to the races yesterday at Thunder RC in Elkhorn Wi. They ran an enduro race with 3, 5 minute qualifyers and an hour long main. That was a blast! I qualified 11th and and took first in the B main. The only mechanical problem we had was a blown rear diff in my sons Ultra LX 1 buggy. The guys and gals at Thunder RC are some of the nicest people I have met at a race track. They had a pig roast for anyone wanting to stick around after the race to eat and shoot the bull. It was cool to see so many little kids running their cars and having a good time out there. There were no obnoxious idiots out there yelling and swearing at the top of their lungs because they weren't marshalled quick enough. After all, isn't this supposed to be fun? Anyone in the Southern Wi and Northern Illinois area, check it out.

Wow that sucks.[X(] You need to move further east
We have a track (not too big but good size) and you could never meet a more humble set of guys. We help each other out with parts if you broke something
glow plugs and other parts if we have extras. If you come to the track and you are having problems everyone is eager to help.
We race and have fun jive and mouth off on each other pure RC fun. Wouldn't have it any other way.

Yeah ehroof......
It is some what run down cause technically its a city park but they let us use it. Also when it rains it gets a bit swampy.
Now the parks dept looks like they gonna be doing some kind of work there so they run on part of the track.
But its all good we still do our thing every weekend.

Its at gun hill road right next to the Bronx river parkway. If you take 95 north and exit gunhill drive all the way over to olinville ave make a right.
I haven't done any flying for some time cause I'm really busy.
