No Paul. It's never too hard when you don't get to race. I am thinking about oval though, maybe every now and then, something new.

I just picked up an L3/L4 in a trade and might have to make the trip sometime. Even better, maybe Jon and Daris come back excited about opening a carpet track :D .

Hey, did ya know that your old car, the ADX II is for sale on Hobbytalk? I tried to email you about it, but I guess I used the wrong email addy.

Mark,

I got the joke and had a little chuckle to myself. Anyway, I don't think we want him and Tony Stewart at the same RC event.. I was wondering just how many GAYS made it this year though... hehe

Big Thanks to the Dynoman for doing the tractor pull to Florida and back, and congrats on your A-main run. :thumbsup:

Also thanks to Phil and the rest of the Ft. Wayne crew for the support and giving us such a good test track to get ready for the birds. I think the results show as all of the guys that went down placed pretty well.

C-ya Saturday

02-11-2004, 10:33 AM
...not to mention the entertainment big dave provided. in that 2nd round qualifier he even entertained butch....3 times... :wave: from what i saw sunday night though...a case of mountain dew and monti could've pulled that trailer himself without any troubles. in all seriousness, it was a good opportunity to hang out with everyone down there...and i'd say we all ran pretty well. i agree...we're lucky to have a place to race and improve and develop the things we need for big time shows like that.

Mark Recio
02-11-2004, 10:54 AM

Good to hear you made it back! See you saturday.

BTW, I placed a call to Schrader's ppl; Looks like you are good to go on the personal service contract!

I saw on the first page (a year old or more) the classes you were originally running. What classes do you run now, and what are your most popular classes? Do you have a recommendation for a starting class for a beginner? Sportsman? Novice?

Thanks. :thumbsup:

I'll be there to watch and here the stories. The last round of the CRL series is sunday in Homer, MI where ever that is and I am leaving sunday at like 5am for that so racing will be out of the question. The the week after is the triple crown race at trackside. hmmmm I might get to go in circles agian in march. :(

tbat007,
I guess that's a hint to update the website? The top of the page you were looking at, said to go to the Summit R/C Raceway page to get information, and had a link. But I see I don't have a list of the current classes on that site either, but it's up to date otherwise. Ok, Ok... I'll get on it.

While we are on the subject, what would you like to see on the website? What's missing or out-of-date or what is on there, but doesn't need to be? Give me some input or ideas, and I'll get them on there.

Input, I need input!

Don't forget Sunday the 22nd also.... the second leg of the Hoosier Triple Crown Series. If you missed the first, you can still get in the race for the big trophies by running in the second and third legs.
