[DAVEC-NITRO-RS4]

Tune, how many racers in MT? And who got #1?
Way to go on #2 and not smoking!

[Sh1nn3r]

I think there where 12 guys in the mt and rick riggs came in #1

[DAVEC-NITRO-RS4]

Thanks Chris!

[Mr. Tune]

Is rick a local or one of the travelers? What was he running? He was too far out in front of me, so I didn't catch what he was driving.

[HAGASAN]

I love the practice in making the kids, just not the baby sitting part.
Rick Riggs is from INdy and the guy can drive good. He races a revo. Nice guy too. Its good to see all you "newer Racers" doing well and getting the hang of this stuff.

Congrats on 2nd place John... I gotta get used to the Revo now, so you have some local competition. Most of the MT guys jumped ship (Rich, Ryan, Bobo...)

I did a little testing with the new settings, Trinity pipe, and wing addition, and it seemed to be turning MUCH better.

[rocco79]

Congrats Demo

[Tex]

anytime Tune! Congrats to all the guys who were running up front, good job. Slim you were hanging right there with the best of them from what I saw, great job. Rich after more practice with that LSP you'll be a front runner, you were doing great for the amount of runtime you've had with it.

Rick Riggs is a cool dude, I chatted with him for awhile. He has a 1 inch extended chassis(in the rear only, not up front like most people) and he has a OS RG.21 ....it was the Orange body Revo.

I can't wait for next weekend.....

[rocco79]

Isnt that what engine you gonna run!???

[Tex]

not as of now.... but I think the power it has to offer is about perfect for a revo...faster than most smallblocks (more brute power anyway) but not TOO powerfull.

[Michowski]

2.5 is a great option. If i cant get my reserve price for mine il be running a 2.5 with an os .18 carb. 2.5 has more then enough power for racing.

[rocco79]

Well whatever you guys do i look forward to racing with ya!

[snakebite46]

I let Sh1nn3r use my 2.5R yesterday after his TM took a dump. (bad luck dude). Man that motor rips !!! I guess when I ran that motor I really didnt see how good and fast the thing looks out on the track.

Thanks Gabe, I'm trying to keep up with the big dogs =P Glad I made the A-main first time out with the LSP.

[rocco79]

Chris your TM blew up too??!?!! WTF!!!!!!!



Snake where did you qual? And where did ya finish??? How long was the main?

[snakebite46]

1: Matt Gosch Jammin
2: Sonny O LSP
3: Joe Finn TTR ST-1
4: Rob Kassal LSP
5: Me. LSP
6: Eric Anderson. LSP
Didnt stay to run my main. got too late and the wife needed her break from watching the kid all day.

[rocco79]

Wow , thats good man. Alotta fast guys on that list!

[MX_KEVIN]

Dude..you forgot me :wavey:
7 Bobbo
8 Me Kevin
My spektrum took a dump so I didnt run either

[rocco79]

It took a dump??!?!

[snakebite46]

Sorry bout that Kevin. I knew you were in the A-main but couldnt remember if you were in 7th or 8th.

[FreeRideFrosty]

Awesome guys and congrats to all who placed well. I can't wait for the trophy race...

(And what mods are needed to run the OS RG?? Just the .21 conversion??)

[MX_KEVIN]

Sorry bout that Kevin. I knew you were in the A-main but couldnt remember if you were in 7th or 8th.

Actually I think I qualified 10th. But if no one remembers, why should I? 8th sounds a little better

Roco, My Tx antenna wire has poped of the board twice now.

[rocco79]

that sux kev! ( the antenna thing )

[Ed Kaz]

more pics ED!!!! even if they are a little blurred!

KINDA blurred?

You needing glasses? The pix came out like chit.

Shooting through the fog,



even at ASA3200 the fastest shutter speed I could get outa the camera was 1/60th. Hardly fast enough to freeze a slow walking person.



flash was outa the question, as all it did was accentuate the fog........even at 6-8 feet away.







As it was, I could get some fog free pix if I shot early in a race, just didnt have enough light for nice crisp pix :o:

[Sh1nn3r]

Ya Rich was doing awesome with his lsp yesterday. Drove it better then his buggy i think, nice job rich and thanks for the engine.
