What present would that be Johhny????? I am confused.:confused:

although now that i think about it I am missing a green folding chair.

John are you talking about the Luanne stuff or the sheet metal not holding up?? The wife of one of the civil engineers I work with works at a sheet metal stamping place and he said that he would ask her if they had any 24ga. sheet metal they would sell us or any scrap that they could give us. I figured that about 40' would be enough if it came off of an 8' wide roll.

Been there done that. It won't hold up for more than a month. It's NOT the cars, trucks or buggies, it's the marshals and their big feet that do all the damage!

Yeah but at least we know that "Bigfoot" won't be racing with us to have to worry about that, plus there won't be any prototype Losi cars out there either, unless I runn my XXX-4:eek:

I'm talking about the Luanne material. It doesn't hold up to the foot traffic and moving the jumps around. My choice would be the sheet metal!

I wondered about that part. Just how light can we go with these. I'm sure racing traffic won't be a problem. Sheet metal should hold up pretty good. I'm curious how it does with the Marshal/free-range children test....

Seeings as how all of you have decided to make 12th scale madatory..does that mean you will be buying them for the people who don't have them, or having a surplus supply avalible for rent???? :D :lol: :devil:

John, are you going to try to host one of the CRL races?

MASONITE!!!!!!!!! masonite is what we used on skateboard ramps it is totally smooth durable and very pliable if it works for skateboard ramps it will definitely work for your jumps. Even though running a dirt car on carpet is blasphemy just thought I would throw that out there. As far as my green chair cool,anything for the club I will just pick it up the next time I am out that way. c-ya.

Steven had mexican food for lunch that day, and I think he went for seconds on the refried beans!!! You might consider having it dry cleaned or maybe even replace it entirely!!!!!!!!!!

Oh That, I have a copy of that. As much as I hate to, I'll have to leave that as it is. Its that being tied down factor that presents the problem if you know what I mean. Gone all the time.

thank you

john! big race? when?

Today at Lazer, no big cars.

Ken, Why werent u at the mars race?

I could'nt go to the mars race because where i work there are 3 of us that are in the department me, one guy that is the boss and the other guy. well the other guy that is not the boss his wife went into labor on friday so I had to take his on-call hours for the weekend because heaven for bid the boss might have to work if he would of taken it. So I am basically screwed for the series now which sucks because I believe I was still in the top 3 in stock buggy with a good chance of winning the series with a good day at vicksburg. Oh well, I will probably not go to the fifth race now because if I can't win the series what is the point. I know that I can win the individual races because I have done it a couple of times now. So as far as mars is concerned it is all about next year for me now. Right now I am more or less getting geared up for indoors and considering running 12th scale at cleveland but that is still up in the air. And I saw some stuff on here about the carpet racing league I am very intersted in that and looking forward to that.

Ken-
sorry to hear that. I was kinda hoping to see ya there. Heck, I raced my new kinwald edition and ended up 3rd in the B main of mod buggy. Well hope to see you in hesperia sometime soon.

Wow, that was different. Lazer was a blast, with there unique set up, long and narrow lanes it takes some getting use to. I love that car ramp, what a kewl deal that is. For the nitro guys, that hard charging driving stile don't work there. Its all about rhythm and smooth driving lines, slower is faster at Lazer. I'm glad I went.
