dirt dawgs race 9/25

[Tex]

just run 30% and see how it runs before retuning. If changes need to be made, change it at that time.

MaxxGS, I'm not building my revo right now, sorry.

I am however racing a jato in the gas truck class. (Thanks Thrash)

[FreeRideFrosty]

Gotcha. I will probably pick some up Saturday afternoon so I will try running it that evening. I also checked my reciever pack since it kept cutting out on me and it seemed fine so I rewrapped that. My best guess is that it's the switch so I am going to run direct to the reciever now. I should be there on Sunday. :-)

[DAVEC-NITRO-RS4]

....Also, I had a brain fart. I've been running 20% but will be switching to 30% so I should richen a little bit correct?? I think that's right because the fuel will burn a bit faster so you need more.... ahhh whatever.

Do you have to shim the head when you go to 30% and higher? Or is that just with SOME engines?

[FreeRideFrosty]

Oooooo... yeah I guess I would need to know that too. The motor will be a Picco .26 so will I need to shim it?

[Tex]

most of the time the shimming that they come with is fine. I've never re-shimmed and always ran 30% the last 5+ motors I've had.

oh and when you go to 30% your motor usually runs cooler

[FreeRideFrosty]

excelent... more power. Hehehe...

[MaxxGS]

The weather as of today is calling for 60% chance of storms thoughout the day for Sundays race.

But the weather never seems to acurate anymore so we will have to see.

Might be interesting. We could have side by side mud drags if it does rain. :racing:

[Tex]

sweet the track will be watered without slaving away inbetween races!

[cemeb4dk]

I'll mount up the paddles now, and buy a few cans of wd40

[rocco79]

Yeah, so much for my nice shiny clean trucks!!! lol!!!

[Tex]

it always works out like that Roc. They will end up dirtier than before you cleaned them.

[bigjs]

I sure hope it doesn't rain. With all the metal out there in a thunder storm it probably won't be a good idea.

[FreeRideFrosty]

It turns out that I'm not going to be able to make it. Today was my Grandmother's 80th birthday so I have a little family gathering I need to go to on Sunday. I'll make it out sometime in the future...

[bigjs]

Looks like rain might only be in the evening now.

[Tex]

I hope it rains a little.

[rocco79]

Let it rain, it will make for an interesting race day

[bigjs]

I don't like playing in the rain, it messes up my hair!

[rocco79]

Joe your a funny guy!!!!!! :bustingup ( See its funny cuz J has a shaved head! For those who dont know him)

[bigjs]

well it's raining now in McHenry, but for tomorrow the news said it's not supposed to storm until after 4 pm.

[rocco79]

Well we just had a nice down pour like an hour ago.... It it keeps this up that track will have ultra super mega traction!!!!!!!!!

[snakebite46]

Thanks to the Dirt Dawgs crew again for a good time. Perfect timing with the rain.
Track was dialed in today. Mega traction.

[Tex]

Track was great and everything went real smooth. I like how we bunched everyone up in the mains, made it more exciting. Alot of fun. I couldn't have asked for a better temp or weather outside, it was awesome.

[RCDad]

Sounds like you guys had a great time, where's the pictures??

[bigjs]

Frustrating Day for me!

[snakebite46]

I didnt take any pics this time. Too sleak out there to be kneeing and trying to snap some good action shots.

bigjs, you were there ? what happened to make your day frustrating?
