from what i've heard, the car is fast and handles well, but i'm still stuck on the shaft drive. give it a shot, man.

I am going to maybe get a mission for this winter.
:thumbsup:

Missions for Ken, Fred and Mike??? My choice this winter will be the Tamiya EVO-II, it's a shaft driven car, but from what I've been hearing some racers will be going with the Tamiya 414-X belt driven car.

I did'nt think Mike liked the mission I told him I was thinking about buying one and his reply was "oh Im sorry" now I know it was a clever ploy so he could have the mission all for himself. Now I know I must have one.:eek:

Now the question is what the heck is everybody gonna run for 12th scale.:eek:

12th scale im in far as sedan i think im going to stick with the pro 2
as it proved its self this weekend:D :wave:

just to be to keep my name Kawada Kid im gunna run a Kawada SV-10! What did u expect, i got like a billiong parts for it.:roll:

12th scale though steven. what will you run for 12th scale?:eek:

if i ran it would be a 12L3, but I dont think i will since i have once four cell pack and no money to spend on batteries. I gotta buy Cool Nitro stuff. I realy wish i could never run electric again but stupid winter takes care of that...

Aaron runs a Reflex. Fred Baumgartner runs the v-one-r. :)

Well it seems that the on-road crew had some success this weekend. I on the other hand didn't. I qualified dead last in 4wd due to breaking in each qualifier, and was taken out in the second corner of the main by Moose's son Bill. He took me out just as I was comming off of the double onto a short chute in mid-air and when my car landed it broke the front shock tower that was hand made, the front diff cover got ripped out of the chassis, and the rear hinge pin mounts on the left side were trashed. So the XXX-4 is out of commission for a while. I hope I can get it back together for the next race in Vicksburg. As far as my truck I did manage to get into the B-main somehow with a 19T motor but in the main my slipper loosened up on me and it caused me to blow out the seal on the Hydra Drive ( Yes I was running a Hydra drive on my XXX-T) and all the oil came out and I was forced to just put around the track and finished 9th. I was sitting in 4th place in 4wd but will probably drop out of the top ten after finishing with no laps in my main and a 18th place finish. I was in 24th place in mod truck and will thankfully move up some spots with my finish in the B. So Ken Don't feel too bad you missed Brooklyn, it was hotter than @#%! and the track fell apart on Saturday. I had more fun running the Go-Karts on friday night than I did in any of my races, I at least won 2 of those races vs 0 in my mars races.

I did buy a XXX buggy for only $80 so that was pretty sweet

Ken - GET A XXX-S, I have an absolute killer set-up on the car I am running now. I have TQ'd the last three times with it. The only things you need to get that don't come with the kit are titanium tie-rods and I would reccommend the brp or hand made kydex front bumper.

I was worried about stock buggy down there as it is kind of back and forth with me and the guy from ohio Golatka I think is his name. But I heard that john Oliver tqed and won so that is good for me as now that there are 3 races on the books they will begin to use the throw outs and i will still be sitting okay in all of my classes and I will be ready to go for Vicksburg. As far as a sedan choice I already have a tc3 so I might just run that, BUT I run losi offroad stuff so I might want a losi BUT I am really drawn to the mission for some reason I think that, that is going to be the car for me.

Okay.... I finally got it right, I think!! Thanks for being on top of everything Rich!

MORL Points after 2 races (2 more races to go!)
Below are the current points standings after two races in the MORL series. There are two more races to go (Hobby Hub 8/11 and Lazer 9/15).

Any 'ties' in points were adjusted based on qualification position (if you out qualified someone then you got the position above) and then based on past ranking (from the 1st race).

kinda hard for you to do that behind me, isn't it?:lol:

Ain't gonna happen DuhSillyOne, your just dreaming those wierd dreams again. Don't worry, they'll go away once we're in Lansing!

if you can find your way here, you old puss ball.

Don't fear, I'll be there waiting on you, at the start of the race, AND at the finish line... you snorkel-nosed puke!

good one....good one.
if you could drive as good as you could bash, you'd be sweet. remember, the only reason you're ahead of me is because my reciever pack went dead in canton. don't count on that ever happening again.

So, that's your excuse?? Your reciever pack went dead? Is that the best you can come up with in such short notice, geeezzz!! And this thing you speak of about me being sweet... I think you shedding some light on a few unanswered questions! And... I learned how to bash on the track from no one else but you, so there. LoL!!

all right, man. you got me there. we'll just have to wait and see.

For anyone that is interested there is another of the Off-Road Demo Derbys that Fred and I went to at the Berlin fair happening this Saturaday at the Ottawa County Fair. This thing is a blast to watch, there is all kinds of great crashes and bashing that happens. For instance at the last one we saw a car traction roll on dirt.

well one race,15th place this is looking good

;) :dude:

:eek: WHAT THE:eek:

:D :wave:

I asked hankster to put John and Mike's smack talk posts in a new section. :p It should be interesting to see the outcome at Lansing. Only time will tell.

Aaron... I just hope Mike makes it in the "A" so I can have a chance to dodge his attempts at knocking me off the track, which by the way I've gotten pretty good at after racing with Mike all these years!! LoL!
