Racing Sun. 8/14 - MX_KEVIN - 08-13-2005
Just wondering if anyone is racing and where?
Racing Sun. 8/14 - satoch - 08-13-2005
Looks pretty much like it's going to rain. Well, %40 anyhow. Actually, I've never been to AJ's and since it's rained I hear that might be a good spot that's close.

Arent the Dirt Dawgs having a race tomorrow in Elburn ?
Racing Sun. 8/14 - bigjs - 08-13-2005
Yes we are
Racing Sun. 8/14 - cemeb4dk - 08-13-2005
Yes we are and the track has changed we put alot more turns in it. It is no longer just back and forth and back and forth, and few technical spots it should be fun tomorrow.
The track is nice and tacky thanks to the rain
Racing Sun. 8/14 - RCDad - 08-13-2005
The rain must have ruined the big race at AJ's today.
Racing Sun. 8/14 - Mr. Tune - 08-13-2005
I'll be at elbourn with the dd's tommorrow. Hope we don't get rained out.
Racing Sun. 8/14 - RCDad - 08-13-2005
I was hoping to get a little further on breaking my Savage in this weekend...

Its changed again? I cant wait to see it... so, did you get some practice in?
Racing Sun. 8/14 - cemeb4dk - 08-13-2005
This is the first change at Daves track. There wa sno time for practice, to much work in changing the pipe around and weedwacking....
Racing Sun. 8/14 - Eracer76 - 08-13-2005
Oh, I just figured the first change was when the back table top was fixed by removing the snow fence and added the burm, then adding a banked turn before the 6 pack which also got changed to a 5 pack.........but it sounds like it got a "real" change this time, I cant wait to see it
Racing Sun. 8/14 - cemeb4dk - 08-13-2005
Yes you are right I guess, I was referring to the actual layout. I forgot about the improvements...LOL
Racing Sun. 8/14 - Tex - 08-14-2005
sorry i missed the racing today, I was in MI.
How did everyone do?
Racing Sun. 8/14 - dirtdawg3 - 08-14-2005
Tex
We had a real good day I got first in are pro buggy class today. Tim C broke or flamed out or something in the main so John and George came in 2nd and 3rd I think that is were they finsihed. Also got !st in the gas truck today also. So I had a real good day.
Racing Sun. 8/14 - Mr. Tune - 08-14-2005
I was #2 qualifier in monster truck with a very nice almost error free 1st heat run. After that I had issues keeping the truck running which hurt in the next 2 heats and then the main. I ended up with 4th place in monster truck a-main. I believe brian won monster truck with his supermax.
eric was ripping it up with his lsp today. He was posting faster times than the pro buggy guys :eek: He ended up forgetting to but in a transponder for the main, and although we all knew he won, on paper he made no laps. Looks like it's transponder time for him, lol. Same stupid ass mistake I made last month.
BTW, the new track layout is awesome! Applauds are in order for those responsible for the track and it's newest change. A few high speed, high flying parts, and a few slower technical parts. Very nice mix. No more back and forth racing
Racing Sun. 8/14 - MaxxGS - 08-14-2005
It was a good day, we ran 3 qualifiers and the mains. We had a couple of glitches with the system today but nothing major. At the end of the day we found the extension cord we were using for the computer had a cut in and wires were exposed. It most likely shorted at some point is why the computer shutdown once. We started at 10:00am and were totally finished racing by 4:30. Pretty good if you ask me.
The new layout is very good. I really like how it has taken the track to a new level of difficulty. Good job fellow Dirt Dawg members on the changes made.
Tune you were driven good sorry you had problems. My LRM Predator was dialed in and handled awesome.
The new engine kept me in front of the pack so I could take first place in 2 qualifiers and the the A-Main.
Eric (eracer) can really put the truck out front running faster than the 1/8 scale buggies. The P5 is top notch and Eric drives that truck really good. Sorry to hear you forgot to install the transponder but we all no you won the A-main. Congrats.
Racing Sun. 8/14 - Eracer76 - 08-15-2005
Yeah, it was a good day of racing...
The track is a little more difficult now, which was good for keeping the races closer, it took me alot longer to pull away from Rocco this time
J/K Rocco
Congrats to those who won their races, that was some clean racing!
I had a good time too, I ran good with no major problems except for my stupid mistake forgetting the transponder, time to save up for a P/T I guess lol
Thanks for compliments guys

Sounds like I missed a fun day. Can't wait for the next race there. Congrats to all the guys, and I'm glad to hear the day ended at a decent time considering the extra races.
Racing Sun. 8/14 - cemeb4dk - 08-15-2005
It was a fun day, glad you guys liked the new track layout.
I also had a good time getting to talk to alot more of the members that I usually dont get it talk to alot. So that made the day more fun.
