Damn, that reminds me, I need my magic crystal ball back from you E. My mother in law is getting on my last nerve and I wanted to see when she is going to kick the bucket.

now that made me laugh!!!!

178 entries for the WEST/east Shootout today. Largest turnout the series has ever had. Going to be a long fun day of racing!

:)had a blast today very well run program:thumbsup: and love the layout

East side love you guys. PG crew your the shit! Good times for sure, this summer will be nuts!

So did the West Side dominate or ?

What mains didn't we win?

What mains didn't we win?
Stock buggy and Stock truck.

but who runs those classes on this side of the state?:confused:

What mains didn't we win?

LOL that will be the last time they hold the event over here.

Roy was supposed to win stock buggy. Too bad he ran that crazy looking losi instead of his B4.1.

Thanks Roy for the tires though. You were a life saver. I do have to say. Roy can be a pain. He voices his opinion and sometimes he comes off sounding rough, but he really is a great guy. If you need something he is always there to help out in anyway he can. As are all the people at PG!!

had a blast yesterday wish i could of stayed longer can't wait untill the next time gooooooooooooo west

dancer thanks for the help with the mamba

Lies, all lies!

Anyone know how to get in touch with Louie Ocho Cinco?

I can through facebook.....what's up

I can through facebook.....what's up
He wants me to order a new Fantom motor for him on Monday. I wanted to email or call him before I do, I have a quick question for him. You can pass my cell number on to him if you want to.

Man its easy to take PG for granted. When you always run in such a nice facility you tend to forget what its like at other tracks. Thanks again to E and everyone for providing such a great place to run. Any word on the clay? LOL

yep its sitting in a lot by my house. my boss is building a home and is getting rid of it. just needs to get picked up it looks like.

Amazing as it is, there were people at Proving Grounds this weekend that had never been here before. We had people from all over Michigan, and a few from Indiana, and Ohio in attendance for this race. With all these people from various different tracks there was one comment I heard more than any other. "Damn you guys at Proving Grounds are lucky. This is hands down the best racing facility in this region".

Not sure about you guys, but that means a lot to me when I hear it. Uncle E has poured more effort (and money) into PG than pretty much any track owner I know. And I know he loves it when people praise what he has created and tell him how much they like it. So what does he do when he already has a great facility? He goes out of his way to make it even better. He plans to upgrade to a clay indoor track to improve upon this already pimped out facility.

We all need to thank Uncle E for everything he has done, and continues to do for us. We are all truely blessed with one of the best track owners in the country.

yes i agree 100%!!! But guys there is something we can all do to help make it a better Place and it is a easy tasks, just please pick up around your pitt area that all if everyone did that it would save E and everyone else from doing it and it will just make it a better place to race if we all just pitch in and clean are areas up:thumbsup:

Thanks Uncle E for hosting such a great race, it was so much fun. Hope to get back there soon..

one idea on the keeping the pit areas clean (and im not sure how well this would work in actuality) would be to keep a broom or two handy.

I try to make sure that my area is picked up when I am done but there are times I just wish I had a broom handy to quickly go over the area around me.

Good idea Adam!
I think also it's time to open that big garage door, and use the blower to push some of that dirt out from the pits... lol

A broom will probably just work fine :)

Great event hosted by PG again this past weekend! We are in fact blessed to be part of this great journey E is taking MI Racing in... Can't wait for outdoors :)

I'm still relatively new to RC but I've spent a lot of time at Proving Grounds and traveled to other tracks when I get the chance, it really makes you appreciate what a top-tier facility we have. I know I'm proud to say Proving Grounds is my home track.

I was just commenting the other day....there really is no drama either and that's what makes it really great! Thanks for the broom idea I'll grab a couple and thanks everyone for wanting to keep the place nice.

Good facilities, and awesome track, E , Bob And Dave are great always on top of things, helpful and treat you with respect. I used to got to a track to race, now I race so I can go to the track.

I do have to say. Roy can be a pain. He voices his opinion and sometimes he comes off sounding rough, but he really is a great guy. If you need something he is always there to help out in anyway he can.

Lets all pester Roy this week, just keep asking him tons of stupid senseless questions until he has a psychotic episode. That will give us the drama we need. Then we can use the new brooms to beat Roy to death! Damn, now that would be a week.......:thumbsup:

Just the thought of trying to use a broom to beat Roy.... Good luck with that!

Will there be any racing results from Saturday's race?

I didnt say it would be pretty!


Will there be any racing results from Saturday's race?

Yes, just not sure how quickly. I have been waiting for a few weeks for the web site to get some software updates/upgrades done to it. Once that is done I will be putting ALL missing race results up on it. Im just a bit gun shy when it comes to putting stuff up and not being 100% sure it wont get lost after an update to the system. I will check in with the IT guy to see how the updates are going. :thumbsup:

how about putting a map up on a wall and when out of towners come to race have em put a tack in the city they came from to race at pg... would be interesting to see where everybody comes from

Thanx E and Al Horne for a great race, but looks like the "WEST SIDE" took this one, lol. Great job Munson on ur SC wins, West Side mopped up all the SC A main wins, 2wd and 4wd.
Cant believe Revo ran all stock classes, I thought you were gonna put a whoopin on me in mod truck? lol

Was a little drama in the 4wd SC A-main......Mudge passed me........I'll be depressed for weeks over that one.................lol What was up with that one guy running his truck into the wall at the end of the straight??? That was loud...........Rollo put him in his place.....that was freaking great.....hahaha!!

Brilliant! A track owner who not only listens, but hears a good idea and acts on it. Not in days or weeks, but in a couple hours! Viva la E. :thumbsup:

E if you talk to dave VanDam tell him to try changing his steering servo that might talk care of his electrical problems.

I burnt up my 13.5 at the east vs. west shootout any recomendations for mod motors? I prefer something over 7.5 just so i don't go through tires too fast.

Okay let me be the first to say (well maybe not first) that kyosho is just....well...Japanese. Having put the blitz together more times than I can count going over this Ultima is weird. Heck even the shocks fill backwards. I know I post a lot. Sorry if that is annoying but well my wife doesn't want to hear about it so you have to.

Lots of good motors out there. Fantom, Orion, and LRP make awesome motors. A 10.5 - 8.5 are perfect for almost any track, indoor or out.

My lrp 9.5 rips and has very smooth power delivery.
