Yep, been a little busy getting my stuff ready, the bodies are painted and mounted, both buggies gone through and tweaked, fixed cleaned and set-up for a great day of racing.....I hope! I'm a little worried about the nitro buggy, these O.S. motors are very tight and it has'nt completly broke in, hope the starter box will turn it over in colder condition......we'll see.

Here's a pic of the finished product.

Now just have to organize for 8th scale racing and try to pack everything I will need, in as little area as possible.Here is roll call for the Tipp short bus, Randy, Mike, Jbod, GNS and me, we'll be leaving the Glen's parking lot in Gaylord at 5 am, I'd like to see you there a little before so we can have the truck packed and on the road at 5am. We'll be stopping at 4 mile rd near Grayling to pick up GNS and meating Steve and Dylan from T.C., they will be following us down.

That Mike D guy gets to buy the coffe.

I've heard 75 to 150 so it should be a good turnout. Practice Fri. shuts off at 4 for gas and there having regular Fri. nite show after that.

Yes it a A.E. why would I be ashamed ? I got a great deal on a brand new one I couldn't pass up. This buggy will fit my driving skills just fine. Pretty sure the box says 24 time world champions. So A.E. must work for others as well :p

You should know it's more driver than equipment anyway:wave:
