The other plans are gone and the trip is being planned as I type. It looks to be 4 racers and 5 or 6 total comming down. I just hope my dyno is back in time.

Hey folks just a note tosay we had fun down there today. Even better we got to grab a meal at the Inwood before hitting the road. Thanks to Kevin M for the spring tip and once again sorry to Charlie for the run in during the main. Hopefully the next "big" race will be on a weekend where all of TBRC can make it !!!

The Birthday Bash at Thunder Road was a blast! It was fun running two classes but the 4300 car still needs work to catch Joel and Lin. The stock car was awesome though. Kevin, I think it could have been an interesting main if I would have gotten in the crach. Just one of those racing deals. I know it was in no way intentional.
Congrats to Joel, Beach and Kevin.

How about that Kevin Morris what a difference a car makes not that you were off that other brand of car.

JH if you mean what I think you mean..............I'll stay with the L4 after all it's the basis of almost all pan cars. That and parts are rather easy to get at the LHS. Then again I'm working on frankencar..................pick a manufacturer of r/c stuff and this car might have it on board :eek:
