How was the racing last Thursday?

Jason and I are in for this Thursday. I hated to miss the last one but with working last weekend and this weekend I needed the rest.

Who else is coming?

Mike you going to make it? Maybe I can borrow that killer motor.

I know Jerry will be there, he owns the place.

Wayne, you going to make it?

Dennis?

Ronnie?

Andrew?

Jimbo?

Jimmy?

Scott,
Yep, all the regulars should be there. Jimbo is the only questionable driver, his back is still acting up but he was there last week!

I almost threw that motor away last year but kept it and just tried different brush & spring combos and FINALLY after all the work, it just came alive. I took the TQ in truck class last week but had help from andrew, he just can't stay away from jerry's car.

See you Thursday.

Jimmy is'nt going to make it back to electric racing anymore, I've now got his truck and starting to rebuild it like he had it (showed the #51 truck at JERRY'S) I'm working on getting a speed control and a new motor.

r yall gonna run stil this thursday nite or wait til next.....

I am not sure. If Jerry does not post up here in the next day or two I will give him a shout. I will bring my Coyote to the next race.

ya the peer pressure, i was talked into getting a nastruck, jerry told me to call him tommorow to let him know if i want one ordered or not

You will really enjoy the BRP's!

Get some lexan too, so you can make a battery box.

will do

Hey Scott,
Nobody twisted Shillet's arm, he drove my truck for about 30 laps. I believe it was love at first drive. Skillet we should be racing this Thursday night. I should be able to complete our transaction & pick up the trailer Saturday and oh yea, hand you a check!

Hey Scott, Skillet's got a gascar now!


Merry Christmas

Mike -- That is what I hear? I am sorry you are getting rid of it but I am glad it is going to a good home!

If you need a driver for that extra 1/4, you know who to call!

I am going to try to make it Thursday.

mike--ill be home saturday at 2ish.......i was called to duty by a jeep club from the fl panhandle to guide them thru the superlift trails in gdale saturday morning...but i will be home around 2 if thats ok, and ill be here all week also...
i forgot to call jerry today so i guess ill wait about gettin a brp for now....c yall thursday nite

ps i got the dodge body painted and ready to run......looks good on the coyote.....all it likes is lettering

The Dodge does work nicely. I like the turn in of the 'Yota a little more though.

im plannin to get a cpl of those well, i just painted this one cause i got 2 more of em, and 2 chevy's......got bored

Hi Skillet,
I ain't going any where we'll get together on the trailer, I promise!
From the looks of it the Dodge body would be the top of the line as far as delivering down force on the front end. Depending on how the car is set up it will tighten up your ride slightly more that the chevy body.

The MC is a ton different than the Dodge and the 'Yota.

To me the MC has no where near the front downforce of the Yota or the Dodge.

eh i dont plan to run the chevy bodies havent ran one of those since '02......i was in the shop earlier and found a taurus body as well unpainted not sure where that one came from tho.......ya if u wana cruise by after 2 that would b fine, i posted on the orv forums that i was headin out of the woods to b home by 2......so i think the pack will follow out too....ill c yall thursday nite, workin on talkin my celebrity friend(photographer for crawl magazine) into coming also he said it sounds interesting

hey,Mike are you going race next Thursday night (Jan.3,2008), I'll be at Jerry's, and let me know if you need an extra drive in 1/4 scale let me know #2057905249. give me a call.

mike sent u a pm

Had a good time tonight. Enjoyed the racing, the jokes and the Andy Griffin fan club conversation!

Well Tim is was good having you. you need to make it a regular thang. The BRP cars are a blast!

Sorry missed you guys this week. Inventory at work really sux but it goes with the job.

I could not make it either, my night to be on call and I have finally gotten home for a bit.

Anybody want to buy some FAST BRP stuff? Setup sheets included.

Well, I believe all the scoring upgrades have been completed and all races went off without a hitch last night. The only item left on the software plate, getting the system to self initalize when the program is started. Hopefully after reinstalling the software package & device driver, it will be bug free.

You guys missed a good night of racing. Several new racers are finally getting a handle of going fast and turning left. It looks as if we are adding one or two new racers a month (NICE)!


Scott give me a call about the BRP Stuff Cell 915-6370

was fun runnin the loaner.....

Scoring system problems solved!

Thanks to Scott Harper the scoring system is running as advertised. It seems that the system had an extensive log of file data still on the hard drive which my have misled or misdirected the driver for the encoder. Removed all old data files and reinstalled driver, program & upgrades. The encoder self initalizes when prompted and the system operates correctly. Thanks Scott!

It seems the rain may have kept a few racers away last night, it usually does when its raining sideways and falling in buckets. I guess I should not complain since most lakes around town are almost dry from very little rain last year.

The BRP truck class still seems to be the most competitive still, beside being the most fun. We ran 4 trucks in the A & 3 trucks in the B.

The BRP B was hotly contested by RJ, Michael & Jimbo(Scott) driving Jimbo's old truck. Scott who is a very good driver, had his hands full getting the borrowed truck to turn left, I believe his comment was "It's Wore out"! I believe the next comment was, "Well He (Jimbo) has been driving the same equipment for two years and ain't changed a darn thing".

Back to the B.
Michael finished first in round 1 & 3 and Scott finished first in the 3rd round. RJ won the B main, with Scott and Michael getting together several times slowing their pace. Michael & RJ are both making good strides in their driving ability and equipment setup.

BRP A trucks.
1st round, Jerry @ 63 laps, Mike, Wayne, Andrew
2nd round Jerry @ 64 laps, Mike, Andrew, wayne
3rd round Mike @ 64 & TQ, Jerry, Wayne, Andrew
Main Mike @ 64, Wayne, Andrew, Jerry

2 laps seperated 1st & 4 place, Good Racing!

BRP A Cars.
1st round, Jerry @ 62 laps, Wayne, Andrew, Michael, Mike
2nd round Jerry @ 64 laps, Andrew, Wayne, Mike, Michael
3rd round Jerry @ 65 @ TQ, Wayne, Andrew, Michael, Mike
Main Jerry, Wayne, Andrew, Michael, Mike (DNS)

Jerry's Car while not being blazing fast was the best handling car I have seen to date. His car was as fast going through the turns
as it was on the straights, no scruffing off any speed anywhere and looking great.

See you next Thursday night at Lakeland Speedway home of the "FOF"!

Well racers this Thursday night will be a Non race night due to Valentine's Day. Our ladies put up with a lot but racing on Valentine's Day NOT GONNA HAPPEN.

Nope we will be racing under the lights on Saturday night at Lakelane Speedway, so make plans to be there. Practice starts at 4:00 PM races at 7:00PM

The featured racers for the weekend festatives should be Willy & Gilly from up thar in Northeast Alabama. They both are just inside the State line to be called Alabama Gang Members! Both drivers are Lagoon Park Raceway members and race 1/4 pounders. However neither are old enough to be in encluded in the FOF racing network! Maybe one day!

Willy I believe is the National, 1/4 scale, racing Oval champion? Gilly is a accomplished electric, Nitro & Gas racer his greatest claim to fame! He puts up with Willy which is a BIG task. Both racers will be Provided a loaner BRP Pro Stock Trucks to race. Jerry evans assured me that their trucks will be fast enough to run with everyone except Me & Jerry.

Hopefully ScottH & Jason will there, because there needs to be some grudge racing done! Yea lets settle some of this R/C hobby talk BS on the track. Scott, Willy & Gilly.

All right get your cars tuned up and turning left, kiss all of your battery packs and remove all of you plugs, check your transponders and make sure you transmitter is charged and on the correct frequency because we don't want any excusses for losing!

All racers will be checked for tire tools at the door, the best place to leave them is under the front seat of you truck.

SEE YOU THERE!
