It was fun getting some track time out there...and nothing broke this time. Just cleaning to do. Whoohoo! Thanks for hooking me up Revo and hopefully I can get my lap times a little quicker with some practice. We all know it's not the car causing the problem after watching Revo bash on it.

+1! By the mains, the track performance was the absolute best I've raced on in two seasons! Man the cars and trucks were friken flying! Inferno, man that's a bummer about the breakages, you had three strong rigs out there! And I like the mains posting, although, I think there should be an asterix on the buggy A-main,(protested for cheating)!!! GNS, you jerk!!! Lol! Man, what a battle that was! Did you see those lap times? Damn!

With all the people that know how to run the timing system now, no one person should be tied to it.
Tipp, glad you finally got some trigger time with the 5b. Hopefully all you had to do to tune the motor was lean it up. I bet that pipe made a huge difference. You should look at the new HPI slipper clutch for it part#85474, they call it a power control slipper clutch, or turtle racing's tur0012 aluminum clutch bell carrier, or RPM dual stage shock pistons, team fast eddy bleeder shock caps. Turtle Racing has a sweet pull start tur0026. And HPI came out with stronger, faster servos SFL-30mg.

Wade, you did spin me, but so did somebody else right at the last turn before the finish line! But like I said, didn't mind losing that one, it was one of the best and closest races I've ever been in!
