Jamie Hanson 12-24-2002, 02:04 AM OK I didn't get to race this weekend and I have an itch for it I have to scratch. SO what is the deal for this weekend? Lansing on friday? My dad wants to go racing BAD as well. Let me know what is up. kingpin 12-24-2002, 09:22 AM We are heading south this morning with our sleigh full of toys, so I will say it now. To Kevin and Jake, Jamie and Jim, Russ, Joel and Casey, Mel and all his cohorts, Rick and all the others who creep these halls without saying much. MERRY CHRISTMAS This is what the typical vehicle will look like heading south on I-75 today, including ours. Won't the Grandsons be glad to see us!!! Howler 12-24-2002, 10:16 AM I just wanted to wish all my racing buddies on here a MERRY CHRISTMAS . I hope that you all get what you want from Santa. Sorry, A-main wins don't count, lol. :wave: Frank Ulbrik 12-24-2002, 03:24 PM Jamie, Lansing fri. is a go, see ya there.:thumbsup: Ted Flack 12-24-2002, 03:37 PM Merry Christmas to all you guys! Friday at Lansing for me, I hear it will be open early (noon) so I (maybe we)will be there in the early afternoon. Jamie, bring your Dad, I haven't seen him in a long time. Jake,if you come to Lansing I have a bag full of rims, with a little bit of foam on them. Frank, what classes are you guys running at the Snowbirds? See ya all Friday. Ted mel 12-24-2002, 03:41 PM MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HO HO HO TO ALL OF YOU. Frank Ulbrik 12-24-2002, 04:28 PM Ted, ????? not sure yet, I think Mike is running 19t, Im gonna give 4 cell mod another try this year, last year I was pretty green. I think I need to save face this year. I might also run either 6 cell mod, or 19t, not sure yet. We'll be in Lansing around 12:00, we have some new things to try:thumbsup: . You should try talk Bobby into racing Fri. Jamie Hanson 12-24-2002, 04:53 PM OK so friday in Lansing it is. Mod, stock, 19t???????? I still don;t have the mods I need to run that class but 19 is ez enough for me to do. Xpressman 12-24-2002, 06:03 PM Jamie, This is Greg, you only need one!!!! MOD, friday, be there or be square!:thumbsup: Ted Flack 12-24-2002, 06:48 PM Originally posted by Jamie Hanson OK so friday in Lansing it is. Mod, stock, 19t???????? I still don;t have the mods I need to run that class but 19 is ez enough for me to do. Jamie, there was a 19t class last week, I am sure some more guys will be there for 19t this week. Bobby and I have not decided what we are running at the Snowbirds, one of us will probably run 19t though. Frank, same with us as far as deciding what to run. Bobby wants to run road course, oval, and anything else they have. Gotta decide soon, they are putting a limit on entry's this year. Ted walterhenderson 12-24-2002, 09:25 PM I got out of working fri. nite so i will be there. If nothing else gets done the track wil have the correct infield width. Walter:thumbsup: Greg Anthony 12-24-2002, 10:02 PM Ted, does this mean Bobby is going to be running legands as well? Merry Christmas to all!!!:wave: 1Metric Ton 12-24-2002, 10:40 PM Merry Christmas everyone.

I might be going, Later, joel Happy holidays everyone. Jamie Hanson 12-25-2002, 02:16 AM No T/C/ for me on Saturday. I have to work at 1:00. But friday night in Lansing for sure. I will most likely end up running 19 turn because I don;t have the motors to hang with those fast guys. kevinm 12-25-2002, 10:38 PM Hey George! Got any Legends bodies in the paint shop? Rick wants to run Outlaw Legends next month and my outlaw needs a body. Are you going to come to Lansing friday? Your car (with all 4 wheels) was plenty fast last saturday. Bobby Flack 12-25-2002, 10:44 PM Frank.. I'll be there friday.. see ya there. chuck47 12-26-2002, 02:06 AM Merry Christmas to all you racers out there Hope you had a good one that Santa sure is a good fellow:thumbsup: rowle1jt 12-26-2002, 03:56 PM Change in plans, for the better. I'll be in Lansing Fri night. :D Keith will be happy to know after MP last week that Santa brought me an 80watt Weller! LoL :) Jake hock 12-26-2002, 04:16 PM Just got 6 4-cell packs (Sanyo 3000HV) Sold off my gp-3300's becasue they are not approved for ROAR nationals rowle1jt 12-26-2002, 05:13 PM Not to start the battery debate again, but I guess I won't be running nats.... :( (I was thinking about it and now that I don't have any batts that are "legal" to run I guess don't have to think about it any more...... One time that ROAR could actually do something GOOD for the hobby and they have missed the boat so far........ Jake DISCLAIMER This post was not meant to start another debate, but to express my opinion. :) hock 12-26-2002, 05:19 PM mine wasn't to start anything either. But when your wife buys you 6 packs for xmaas :eek: Ya gotta tell the world :hat: :thumbsup: rowle1jt 12-26-2002, 05:33 PM You SUCK! That is awesome though, I hope Chris turns out to be ALOT like your wife..... :D Santa brought me a 80watt Weller, a team losi hauler bag and some other cool stuff. Most notable is my Wireless access point router, its so cool! I have my laptop on the internet through the wireless part and my pc is hooked up to it via ethernet. I am going to put my sisters pc on it too, 3 pcs 1 cable modem...... Gotta love screwin' the cable company! LoL :devil: Jake hock 12-26-2002, 05:35 PM :roll: :wave: :roll: Howler 12-26-2002, 05:35 PM Jake, that does not mean that they won't be by the time nats rolls around. Besides, I have packs you can use. It's not worth missing something that is unusually close( as far as carpet nats go). There's a lot of stuff to be learned at these races. rowle1jt 12-26-2002, 05:36 PM Originally posted by Howler Jake, that does not mean that they won't be by the time nats rolls around. Besides, I have packs you can use. You never know where I might show up at...... I appreciate the offer. You guys treat me like a cheeshead and you've never even met me! LoL Thanks again! Jake kevinm 12-26-2002, 07:24 PM ROAR just approved the Sanyo 3300's. The GP's probably won't be too far behind. rowle1jt 12-26-2002, 09:02 PM Originally posted by kevinm ROAR just approved the Sanyo 3300's. The GP's probably won't be too far behind.

I have most of the car ready except for a t-bar my brother went ot Milwaukee today and will try to get one and send it back,I have to mount the body also so it's getting there:thumbsup: hock 12-27-2002, 09:45 AM Chuck We are NOT racing on New Years Day Sorry. Most of the club just can't be as dedicated as they should, The others have to please there wives LOL:lol: kingpin 12-27-2002, 09:51 AM It is Friday morning and I am still in the Great White South (Detroit Metro area). One more visit and we head back north :) Kevin, I will have something in a body available for MP. Jake, any chance of a Techie Nerd like you hooking up one more desk top to that cable?? Say one in West Branch??:D I wonder if it snowed at home. There is supposed to be a UPS package on the back porch. rowle1jt 12-27-2002, 10:09 AM George, everything in this world revolves around money, dependeing on how much your willing to pay, I can get you hooked up to broadband. :D See everyone in Lansing, George I was about to call you and then read this, so I won't call. :) Later Jake Howler 12-27-2002, 10:14 AM Chuck, racing starts the week after new years.

I just checked out euprc.com (thanks again for the site Jake) and i don't see any recient pics? VROOOMMMMMMM!!! i'm faster now!~ 1Metric Ton 12-29-2002, 07:41 PM motor question to everyone.....when a can heats up it loses effeciency well does it ruin the can also? Is it better to just get a new motor or just an arm? motors are great but i can't run cool and be fast....Only Perry can do that....Grrrrr..:mad: Any help would be cool. thanks Ya'll. rowle1jt 12-30-2002, 03:34 AM Russ, TC's are heavy complex beasts. They will always heat up a motor, if they don't then the you aren't running a big enough pinion. Wanted to let everyone know that Lansing was a ball! George you should know that the Legend class was pretty big. Rick even showed up! Sam Sprng, Mel, Greg Smith, Rick Radabaugh (sp?) and myself ran 4-cell stock. I had a very fast car if I say so myself! :) I was even going fast enough and driving well enough that I showed Mel a wheel (once!) and drafted about 6 inches behind him all the way down the back straight! Man was that cool, a fast car is more fun, imagine that! I was even able to hold Greg Smith up for about 5 or 6 laps. We all finished with 45 laps in 4 minutes and Mel had 47. What a surprise, Mel won. LoL :) It was a good fun race that we all could have one, we were all pretty close in speed. I was even fast enough that I pulled a holeshot. Mel asked me "where the hell that came from, I wasn't supposed to do that!" :D Thanks to Jamie, Mel and Greg for all their help on my car! Also a HUGE thanks to Ted Flack, he handed me a BAG full of old Jaco foams that I can re-use the rims from. If that wasn't enough, he was cool enough to turn around and sell me 2 Cyclones for $50! Thanks Ted, I appreciate it!!! Jake Howler 12-30-2002, 11:31 AM Russ, over time, it can weaken the magnets. But you have to really cook it. (hey Jake, My car was fast and I barely cleared 109 deg, lol). Russ, I've started by gearing low, and then higher as needed. Iv'e run my car anywhere from a 6.8 to 8.1 final. I think that It worked best at 7.5 overall. triclone-dave 12-30-2002, 12:52 PM All this talk about motors and gearing what about chase. At about any track it will make you 2 laps [COLOR=darkred]faster.:cool: :thumbsup: hock 12-30-2002, 12:53 PM what?? triclone-dave 12-30-2002, 02:53 PM I see you are at work Pat and don't have much to say I hope everybody notes this .:roll: :devil: hock 12-30-2002, 02:55 PM I GOT LOST IN YOUR LAST POST:lol: CHASE? WHAT ABOUT CHASE?:dude: triclone-dave 12-30-2002, 03:23 PM Sorry Pat I can't spell worth a sh!! the word was chassie. I was thinking about racing and not spelling I have to go I just put gun o no gum in my mouth and I can't type and chew at the same time.:lol: :wave: hock 12-30-2002, 03:24 PM That's OK for some reason I can't read today. Atomic dog Howler 12-30-2002, 04:36 PM George Clinton and the parlament funkadelic... Ohh yeah! So, I'm going through withdrawls not being able to race for two weeks strait. Next week it's all going to be laid on the line. vBulletin® v3.8.7, Copyright ©2000-2012, vBulletin Solutions, Inc.
