It was a great day, I need to figure how to run a second faster so I quit finishing 2nd by a second. Photo finishes are great if you win them. LOL:thumbsup:
honda_stuntboy 05-12-2008, 11:07 AM Hey guys. Just trying to get ready for different races and would like to make a point of hitting up your track. Can you give me a heads up on tires for 1/8 buggy, at least what most people may run? Gives me a better starting point. Right now I have "Switches", "Bowties", and " Badlands". :wave:
BIG NECK 05-12-2008, 11:33 AM Just wanted to say thanks to everyone that came out and raced it was a fun day! I did great in the heats. Finished third in the main. Ran out of fuel.:cry: and congrats to kai goff for his win in the main.:thumbsup:seeya next time.

I use bowties! crimefighters work well to.I think bowties are the best choice for this track.
sbrady#0 05-12-2008, 08:42 PM I don't know about 1/8 but step pins work for 1/10, so something like that would be a good start. And realy soft set up the track does get rough. We need more 1/10th trucks and 1/8 stuff, hey don more motor.

Next time there I'll run a bigger motor . Agreed Step pins work the best for 10th scale. And yes we need more trucks!!!!:p
muleracing 05-14-2008, 08:45 PM I'll be there in June with both 1/8 and 1/10 gas! Hope you guys can keep up!
xraycer 05-14-2008, 10:35 PM I'll be there in June with both 1/8 and 1/10 gas! Hope you guys can keep up!

muleracing 06-10-2008, 07:23 PM I don't know sbrady, I'm hope'n it's the calm before the storm... fuguretivly.
That track in the that 131 motor plex has stolen some thunder of m-40, but I exspect that the race on saturday will have a good turn out, with the 131 nitro guys racing on sundays and FRTMS guys wanting to get some practice in before the July date.
ehartman_49348 06-11-2008, 06:38 AM I heard a rumor yesterday that all the tubing was pulled out (due to the storm?) and not put back in place yet.... I hope it's just a rumor....
LOSI_Duck 06-11-2008, 11:36 AM I heard a rumor yesterday that all the tubing was pulled out (due to the storm?) and not put back in place yet.... I hope it's just a rumor....
Even it is or was not sure, they still have until Friday to get things back together don't they? :thumbsup:
Hey guys I hope all works out well for you as I would rather race at Gobles than the other track close by. Here's to all the good work so far and wishing all the best for this weekend since I can't be there, working 12 hrs blocks out racing once in a while. Scott you better not slip up or I will be back in the chase...LOL;)
sbrady#0 06-11-2008, 05:27 PM I was told they are putting down some clay and changing the lay out some. And DUCK you can't hide at work forever! I know you'll be at jones.
ehartman_49348 06-12-2008, 06:44 AM I checked with Kevin from M-40 Raceway and he indicated that the track will be ready for racing on Saturday!
muleracing 06-12-2008, 06:24 PM Ethan, are you going to try the back to back nitro? (sat./sun) and maybe bring some of the 131 guys? That would be awsome!

It's the plan to go back-to-back this weekend running my RC8. There should be a couple of other regulars from MX131 to Gobles as well.
Edwin
sbrady#0 06-14-2008, 08:35 PM Had a lot of fun to day even with the fire my driver got out but the truck is toast not all but the main tub hope I'll have it back for the M.O.R.L race
