HEY!!!!! I know you ;)

Yep :)

Got the car ready for Thursday? I have mine built and ready to test. But if we run trucks I am ready for that too.

No car going yet. Chassis is ready, body needs paint and I need to p/u another ESC to install. All the other ESC's I have are forward only...no reverse. :(

The truck is all I will have this week.

Scott,

How did it go last week? I was in the middle of ceramic tile laying and could not get away. I will try to be there this Thursday if i can get back from Memphis in time.

Tim

Car ran good against the trucks. Sat on the pole in single car qualifying and finished second I think in one of the mains. Not too bad for a maiden voyage.

Man looking at the track and the cars that looks like a blast

The looks are NOT decieving at all!!

I have travled all over racing 1/10 oval and been in some great company, great races and HUGE events. I must say that I have had as much if not more fun racing these little cars. They react very well to change so they are VERY TUNABLE.

Thats what the guy's and girls say that race up here!!!! The BRP cars are the most fun they have had with a RC car.
When will the rest of the world fig that out :confused: :confused:

We are trying to get the word out. So far we have about 5 or 6 new racers in the last two months.

If I can ever get my protable track designed and built I think things will REALLY take off.

Scott,
I'm looking for those pics from last Thursday.
That was great racing,and more fun than I've
had since My win streak last month.

Scott,

What size and degree are you going for? The one we had a few years ago was banked 17 deg all the way around. It had four foot wide lanes and was about 20x12 over all.

Here are a few more pics.

Here is how we do it in Dixie!!!

:devil: :thumbsup: I hesr you talking NOW!!!
Jerry is going down.

D -- If you can come out to the shop Tuesday night. J and I usually tune that night for Thursday.

I just can't give you too much, gotta keep something in reserves to beat you and Jason. :dude:

:cry: If I get my car back in time,
My stepdaughters car broke down
and my truck stinks when it comes
to gas mileage.
Otherwise it will have to be after
you get back.

How did the racing go Thursday??

I hated to miss it but my daughter graduated so I HAD to be there!!

I will also miss this Thursday. I have a good excuse for that too. I AM ON A CRUISE!!! As I type this I am watching the ocen go by, we are at sea today on our way to Costa Mya. Thursday while you guys are racing I will have drink for you on the topside of the ship!!! :D:D:D

:wave: :confused: Scott,
Thanks for the boost,the motor runs great.
I need to debinde it. It seemed to be running
a little hot and the batteries dropped off pretty
quick.
Racing was good,missed You, Ronnie, and Wayne.
Jimmy and his son was there.
J. helped me out with my car setup.
It still stinks but it's better than it was.
Dennis

:dude: :cool: Oh yes,
have a great time on your cruise Scott.

D -- with the way J and I are setting up motors, you gotta have a FREEEEEEE car. Anything less is a battery HOG.

I will help you get her dialed in when I get back. Gotta run, my drink is ready!!! :D:D:D

Scott,that sounds great to me.I'm ready to
start winning again.
See you next week.
Sip a cool one for me. :wave: :cool:

I told you guys I would have a drink in your honor. Here is what I was looking at while you guys were racing. And you were looking at each other's ugly mugs!!! :p :p

This was taken by yours truly off the coast of Cozumel, Mexico.

Well it has been a while since anybody has updated the Alabama Mini scene.

We have had some GREAT RACING. MAN IS IT HOT!!!!

We have made yet another new class. It is the handout motor class. In this class you run a truck body, 9/52 gear and a handout motor. The motors are maintained by a few of us at the track so no need to worry about keeping that motor fresh. It has really made the racing tight.

We have an "open" (sort of) class as well. It is the car class. Here you run your own motor and a car body.

The new Bud's Bird body is GREAT!! You can really get the car inside it and it handles great as well. GREAT JOB BUD!!

We have has some new faces and some new-old faces join us. For those of you from the Alabama area Jimmy Simmons has made a return to electric racing along with his son Andrew. It did not take long for Jimmy to get back up front. I think I am going to have to tie a brick to his truck!! It has beed great reminicing about all the old times. Sandy Strump, The Bolink crew, Buddy Wolfe, the races at Springcove and on and on.

We have a few new racers as well and we are haveing to go to "C" mains now. The racing is getting so tight we are now in need of a scoring system.

Well that is ablout all for now. I will take some pictures this Thursday and post them up here.

Great racing tonight guys.

Man, it was good to be back on the track tonight! Long time away but hope to be a regular again.

:thumbsup: :Nitro,
We haven't seen you in a couple of weeks,We got the new
scoreing system working.Hope you can get back to race
with us soon.

D...

Yes, if all goes well I will be back this week. Two weeks ago it was closeout for my work. Last week I was out of town on work trip. This week....looking good! You guys practicing any other days this week?

Racing will NOT BE THURSDAY NIGHT!!!!

WE WILL RACE ON SATURDAY NIGHT WITH THE CUP RACE.

I believe we are going to try to get together to do a little cleaning up and have a cookout and do some racing.

Thanks for the info.

Anyone practicing during the week?

Call Jerry, he probably does ;).

It will depend on his work schedule though.

hey guys we are starting a oval up here in hazel green al just outside of huntsville with the 1/18th cars and are planning on getting the buds cars what would you guys recomend starting out with for rules as far as the car goes and stuff we are wanting to keep it cheap and most of all fun!!!

I would say box stock but allow the ball diff and maybe run 4 cell if the track is small.

Hey DC shoot me an email harp4002@bellsouth.net or give me a call 205-612-3812 and I will give you the scoop on what we are doing.

I can even hook you up with a great transponder system for the BRP's.

Can someone post the address where this track is? I would like to come check it out plus I only live ~5 minutes from Hueytown.

Its been about 10 years since I raced (1/10 electric oval) and im very interested in getting back in and doing a little racing!

:cool: DSaw78,
the track is on Lakeland Ave.one block off Brooklane Dr.
for more info. send me a p.m. : :cool:

Dennis>> he found us.

Where in the heck have you been?

You all gonna be there again this Thurs? If so ill probably be back and may buy that truck that Jerry has for sale.

Oh yes, we are racing every Thursday night. The only time we miss a Thursday is if we are going to race on Saturday instead.

David, pick up some electronics and race Thursday. We have plenty of batteries between us, we can get you racing with no problem.
