Is it true that the DD and Gearbox cars are grouped together this year?

Yes, That is what I heard.

Jim,
Yes, the direct drive and gearbox cars are all running together. We ran the sprint class that way last year. The weird thing is that the gearbox cars are faster than the direct drive cars.

Todd, Todd, Todd, Todd. whats is this I see in the results on the Off-road nats, The Name Of Todd Putman. Man your everywhere, seeya at the Birds. Breakfest My Treat this time.

Kenny

Had to fill in for Kinwald on a Losi helmet-ride deal since he was ill...:lol:

Is it true that the DD and Gearbox cars are grouped together this year?

Why?
Jim you gonna wheel an old Angle-X or something?

GR

Angle X - wow that brings back memories!!!! How about taping the chassis with the big 'whale' tail and front bumper with packing tape.... HAHA!

I had it all dusted off an everything...:(

Hey Bill... should I bring shoes and long sleeves then??? CYA soon!

Hey Mike,
you will need long underwear, when they turn the big exhaust fan on and open the doors for the nitros it goes from 65 degrees to 35 degrees in a matter of seconds.

:eek: BRRRRRRRRRR!

Hey Bill... should I bring shoes and long sleeves then??? CYA soon!


shoes? on Mike Boylan

Nah, just soak up some 30% before the trip and all will be fine.

Do I need to send you a map? that is a long way from Tampa and with no palm trees for navigation it could be interesting.

Looking forward to seeing you again, been too long since we traded some paint, can't wait till we run some carpet rippin NITRO at the Birds.

Bill

Hey Mike, This Is James Stroud. I Ran Nitro W/ You At The Speedway Spectacular In Daytona This Year. The Yellow #4 Car. I Will Also Be Running At Coopers In Nitro Edm, And Possibly A Second Class.

Question- What Is The Status Of The Spectacular For This Year? And Are We Going To Run .09 Nitro Also? I Know This Is The Wrong Thread For The Spectacular, But I Found You Commenting Here, So I Figured I Would Ask.

Btw, Look For The Yellow #4 Gas Edm At Coopers, Maybe We Can Discuss The .09 Class More.

Does anybody know the track address for the race at Coopers next week ?

I need to send something there.

Does anybody know the track address for the race at Coopers next week ?

Coopers R/C Race Center

James. I think you have Mike Boylan confused with Mike Bean. Bean puts on the speedway race and races in the nitro class there. Boylan/snowbirds, Bean/speedway spectacular. Although if you close your eyes they do look a lot alike.

aren't you glad it's in doors.... lows in the 20's...BBBRRRRRRR....

Mike if it gets too cold ask for Roger andgive him $30 for some strwberries.....lol..... Best anti freeze availible.......lol........
