HI HO HI HO It's to the SOO we go.:D Gettin the itch to race and i wont sleep very well tonite so i thought i'd pay a visit to the site.Got the 4 cell packs ready, i just hope they are going to work well cause wigman and the others already have the edge seeing they have been racing 4 cell;).I just hope we do well and that the wigman will give up some of his secrets to his sucess;) Guess i rambled long enough so i'll get off here and see you in the SOO...............

Scott

Just got back from practice day at Trackside for the Region 5 carpet champs and is the Turn out awesome. People are aready having to condense there pit space to make room for the people coming thru the door. It looks Like the count is going to be 60+. T

I got 4 runs on the track and I must say the track has tons of tractions. Go high go low no problem. Tonight they ran the club race and I had to leave before it got started. BUt it looks Like a long day tomorrow.

Very cool Hock, get some sleep and keep us updated when you get a chance! :)

Good Luck, sounds like you have a decent amount of people to "Terminate"..... LoL
:wave: :wave:
Jake

Scott's been sniffing Par-a-gon.....doo...dah.....doo..dah


LoL, I'm glad your geeked about racing...wish I was there instead of doing homework, multi media presentations and computer programs.... :rolleyes:

Have fun guys! :)
Jake

Hey Jake Page still looks good. Thought you were going to space those links on the left hand side out a bit? Also rules look good. Don't forget to mention that we can run 3300's though. Those arn't roar legal but Joel "THE GREAT 1" said we could. Track looks PHAT. Thanks again to Joel for a super track. It WILL be alot of fun. I will let you know how the race goes and try and remember to get the points from him to send to you. Maybe we need a touring car ZOOOOOOOMING across the page? Or one as a follower to the pointer? that would be PHAT. Not sure what you have to do to have that done? YOur the guy that can do it though?

PS. The touring car has to be a LOSI. I did win the last race and well it was my idea hehehehe. laters big man.

Russell. :wave:

Thanks for letting me know about the 3300's Russ, the site is updated, but not yet spaced out on the left.... :)
Jake

So tell me....how as the Soo race??? And Hock was Trackside Regionals? :)
Later
Jake

Had a wonderful time in the Soo saturday:D I think i will now be a 4 cell racer.We had a blast racing and done quite well.You were right Jake:thumbsup: the cars are just as fast but there is a lot of plusses to running 4 cell,,,,,,,,no tire wear for one and no breakage like the 6 cell racing.The racing was a lot closer and the car much easier to handle.Joel and the gang run a great program and were lots of help to us to get in the gearing range to be competitive.I think the most improved driver award should go to Casey for the way he ran in the main:thumbsup: .He was even the first car to the line in the first heat race if you can believe that(lol).We are going to try to run the points series this year at the Soo cause we had a blast there running 4 cell.Jacob did it again and took the main but we smoked him in the heat races so it's all good.Thanx Big Jake for convincing me to run 4 cell cause it was more fun than i ever expected and my car actually came home in one piece:lol: Talk to ya all later and thanx E.U.P. R/C club for a great time.

Joel, I will be looking forward to the points standings.

Casey where have you been lately????? :(
Jake

Hey Joel great track. Had a great time. Don't worry I am going to be getting ALOT better at touring car. The track was PHAT and everyone had a great time. Hope to see alot of great track designs hehehe. going to be going down state next week to race touring again (more practice for me) and going to be making a few changes to see if i can get faster. Thanks again to the peeps who have helped me out with my touring cars problems. (the book mostly) i read it and made alot of changes to the car itself. Thanks to casey for those PHAT rims and tires that make my car look sweet. Hope to come back and be faster and better for the next race, then maybe i won't choke in the main....:( Ohh well chat laters.



Thought for the day...It must be the rims. :thumbsup:

I'm glad you havd a good time Scott. I'll be there on the 23rd 4 or 6 cell it don't matter racing is just plain fun!!!!! See you on the 23rd.

Perry how did you and Hock do? I know you had fun, it had to be a blast with all the competition and all!!!! I hope to have my act together next time I come to Green Bay.:thumbsup:

Next up for the Green Bay guys is heading for the SOO DEC 6&7th. First I'll have to get my head back on straight.:roll: We are looing forwad to coming up to play with you guys

There sure were alot of racers there hey. Man you and Perry are fast too, I'm sure it was a blasst hey.:D

Congrats to JAMIE HANSON, a great showing for A-Main Batteries!!!!

The regionals were awesome. It was a great time. Tons of people. The track was fast and the scotty the anouncer is awesome. It didn;t matter if it was the c main and two guys were battling for 7th and 8th place. Scotty made it all exciting. I can't wait till the Nationals. As Greg said I ran A-MAIN batteries and they were awesome. I can't wait to go back for the nationals. This time I will know what to expect. My buddy John Sparks has a ballitic car. He just had some bad luck. Keith and Greg in 19 turn did a good job as well. The 19turn class had some stiff competition. Next time we will all have a better Idea. Thanks Greg for the Congrats also.

You are right it was awesome. SO much traction and very very close racing. Even tho the race was in one day it was very exciting and took a lot out of me. I Just laid on my butt to watch football. The racing was so close, If I remember right if you could improve your time by four of five seconds you could jump a whole main.

I am now perry:D

Might as well take a nap for as quiet as it been in here today.


ZZZZZzzzzzzz...... ZZZZZZzzzzzz..... ZZZZZZzzzzzz.....

It's only quiet 'cause I haven't been around..... :D LoL Congrats on the regionals, it appears that you had some tough competition!

Congrats also to Jamie, only one problem? Whats with the A-Main batteries??? LoL :)
Jake

Talk about a competative day of racing. Props to Scotty for a pro-show, and thanks to all of the out of staters for making the trek. I didn't have the best setup this weekend, but I learned a lot. As always, having fun is #1. :thumbsup:

You got that right Perry there is always something to learn and when your in my spot I need a encyclopedia worth of learning to catch up to you guys. So I rely on the fun factor and have a great time learning.:D

Congrats to all who were able to run in the Regionals.Looks like you all done very well and it sounds like you all had a blast:thumbsup: Maybe someday us Escanaba guys will be good enough to run in something that big but we need some work first.The Soo was the first time we raced since may on the offroad and it felt good:thumbsup: Yes Chuck we had a great time but we wish you could have been there.We are going to try to run the points series that Joel has going.It turns out that 4 cell is lots of fun and really just as fast when you get them going.I LIKE IT.................Hope to see you all sometime soon.Take care and good luck racing

Scott:wave:

Good luck in the points race wish I could do that, I'll see you on the 23rd, I'm glad it's just oval we'll get a lot of run time.:thumbsup:

Well it sounds like everyone had a fun weekend and I sat here at home and did homework.... :( Oh well, Russell, George and I are going to the CRL Race in Lansing Sunday. That'll be fun...... :D

Jake

Oh yea Russell, make sure to bring your "yellow" wheels........

So for the oval Trophy race are all the classes being run.Maybe I can get some other classes guys

I think every thing but E-Maxx and maybe 12th?? Hopefully Joel or Casey can tell us. :) Why don't you race some oval Touring Car with us..... :)
Jake

I don't own a puzzle car. But Perry does, I think it would be another class he wouldn't mind mixing it up with. I will try to get some others to go up there that have them.

They are also running stock and novice truck. You got a stadium truck?

Puzzle car??? They aren't a puzzle if you have a TC3. The shaft makes it easy, a limp belt on the other hand.... well.....makes it a little more difficult. :D

So what makes you call them a puzzle car? Bad experince or what? If you can tune an oval car, then you can tune a puzzle car. :)
Jake

Oval Guys call them puzzle cars because the routes they drive remind up of driving around puzzle piece shapes. :D

Yeah I can see that, but they are still fun. :)
Jake

:) :lol: :)

Do they run foams or rubber tires?:confused:

Touring cars run foam

Stock truck runs foam

Novice truck is still on rubber I think
:)
Jake

Great! That is the info I ned to sell this race.

Ho many do you think you will have at this race? Out of curiosity? And is Howler driving over??? Now that I actully know who he is, I'd like to take a closer look at his Ram. :) You reading that Perry? ...... :D
Jake

perry and I travel together. There are 4 people that say " There are going for sure" a few others checking schedule. but Now I can work the touring car guys. We are pimping this race a lot because we've always had fun there :hat:

Very cool, it is a fun race..... :)

I need a favor from you and Perry, can you guys put together a complete setup including tire compunds and body choices? And anything else that would be helpful. I am doing a website for Leading Edge and I would like a couple of good setups from peopel that I know can drive..... Thanks
Jake

PS Even pics of your cars if yo have them!

DID YOU GET YOUR DEAL? I can get it I'll e-mail it Thursday I'll get what I can from the others round here that run them

Thanks Hock, I really appreciate it, and YES! :)
Jake

:)

Hock, As far as I know these will be the classes.

stock truck Foam tires(truck tires not pancar tires) 6-cells
stock touring cars Foam tires 6-cell
4-cell stock pancar
novice (buggy or truck) Rubber tires(onroad tread pattern) 6-cell


If there are enough that want to run we will run 6-cell pancar.
there must be 5 for trophies.

we will run any other class at a cost of $5.00 but they will run for ribbons only.

Thanks for the props hock.
see you on the 7th

weve got a lot of kids that run Stampede trucks They don't have Pin tires. Are these ok?

Dang, my ears have been ringing all morning. I see that some of you want me to bust out the good old SCHUMACHER. LOL. Yeah, it's belt drive, but it did win the 1st SOO CHAMPOINSHIP ON ROAD RACE. Ask Casey and Joel, I'm sure that they'll attest to it, lol. Anyways, what I need to know is do you have a set of foams for me to run? Maybe I'll break out the old pup and lay some smack down, lol. :p

you guys gotta set him straight. he's been like this all morning:dude:

Perry, I am sure that someone will, Depends on how long the ones I am running right now last me...... LoL Talk to Casey, maybe he will "rent" you a pair.... LoL :)

You bringing the RAM?
Jake

Don't worry, if we can get Russell in here we will quiet him down. Russell and his "yellow" wheels can beat any one! :) Right Russ????? :thumbsup:
Jake

Hock, YGM :wave:
