Remember I'm cheap!
Let's talk Saturday. I'm almost thinking D8T, or 5SC. If I sell one of my other nitro savage's I should have enough for a 5SC. Sell the hellfire's and boom D8T!!!!!

im gonna ask santa for a 5sc, dont know why, there will never be a class here for them.

It may be like playing with yourself, but just think of how envious everybody would be! They'd be like "damn, look at the size of that thing, I wish I could play with it!" lmao!

Just got off the phone with Randy, the track needs some TLC before the big night race, sounds like we need a little help. Where calling for a workbee on Thursday night around 6pm any and all help is welcome and appreciated, we have a couple of small track changes to do, mow grass and weedeat re face jumps and fix holes, this is the first time this summer we've asked for help, so I hope to see a good turn out. See you there.

Been having some interest and conversation on our facebook page also, so we could have even more new people there, so would like to have the track in tip top shape.

Remember that we will be starting Saturdays night race at 1pm...........

went good!! pinion came loose all i heard was wizzzzzzzz wizzzzzzzz, D8e handled really good, had to drop front shock oil down to 30wt, and found that the 17t pinion is best! with temps at 119 on motor and 94 on ESC. track wasent that bad, just need to mainly nail down some pipe and fill in a couple small holes. the front tripple was fun i can clear that and almost land by the starting pole;)

Because they are cool to watch and listen too. Sorry jbod! I promise I won't mention 5th scale anymore, you seem to be a little sensative to the subject.

No, no! I think they are way cool to. Just busting you chops.
I will have another one day!
I hope you have fun with it. Bring it out Saturday and run a couple laps, I would like to see what difference a pipe can make.

Ok, I feel better now. I thought maybe you where having traders remorse. I know we'll never have racing with them, but sure is fun to watch them race. I guess we'll have to go to Australia or SoCal to race them.

I'm leaving tomorrow morning. JK

I'll have it there on Saturday's race, you won't believe how a pipe woke this sleeper up.....LOL!

Saw this on facebook

"Nmrcc Gaylord MI. SC and 4X4SC will be 10min mains and 5 min heats, electric and nitro buggy truggy will be 5 min heats and 12 min mains. Novice is always 5min heats and 5 min mains."

Are we really running 10 minute mains in 4x4????? Is this final or is it up for a vote? I can say personally I do not want to run 10 minutes. I would be lucky to make it with my battery and my motor would fry, it is already too hot after 7 minutes.
I know they did it last race but I thought that was a test and from what I understood there sere several that didn't think it was a good idea, but just what I heard.

WIGMAN, are you gonna come play and have fun? Or would you rather complain about every thing. Last week it was somebody's truck was faster than yours and this week it is the length of the heats and mains!
Dude take some pills, start drinking, or something but chill out!

Wigman, I don't think anybody had any issues with making it ten minutes, or motors getting too hot, I think franks motor got to around 150 or so, mine reached barely 130. Besides, by the time we are running the mains, it will be late evening, and likely way cooler outside. I don't think temp should be to much an issue.
