Update on Da Track . I got it blown off today, hope to repair some of the barries and cracks! Will keep informed.
First race May 15th make plans now to be there :wave:

May 15.......May 15....... why does that ring a BELL!!!!!:p Guess we'll be missing that one, good luck to all that attend. Just remember, nothing says "I care" like leaving a little paint on the other guy:D

You know Canbquik...women's makeup has sometimes been referred to as paint...I would imagine you will have a little paint on you from the blushing bride before the sun sets on opening race day at BRP World Headquarters... while the PA posse celebrates a different event besides racing! :wave:

Hope the wedding planning goes off smoothly and things are looking good. I'm sure Bud and the gang will expect you and LLB for the June BuRP race, honeymoon or not...
What? less than 30 days of single life left?

Could not change the wedding date? Hope to see you in June. :wave:

Ok Da Track is ready!! Electric is pluged in. If you plan on coming out try to call me first and I will see that the track is blown off.
I ran for a short time and the surface seems just like last year.
I will be trying some other tires and will keep you informed on these.

Hey all... Sorry we will miss that first race. k1m, Joy, canbquik, and myself will see you in JULY... Maybe I can talk canbquik into getting a mini t by then... he is going to feel sooo left out when the rest of the Pennsy team is racing BRP and mini t... Best wishes to all the racers and we will post pictures of the wedding... I am sure that k1m will have his camera. He always gets the good shots!!! :tongue:

Warbird plans on testing this sat. anyone elese????

Micro Racer>> Put is several hours of testing time today even in the wet :)
He looked to be hooked up and he should be a contender for the stock class title this season.

Had some time to run on Da Track in between the rain today! I was running green rear and orange front. I did not use any Red Dot on the tires, so the rear had a little slide to it! I stocked up on some extra lexon for a nice TangTester sized wing!!!;) It looks nice on the wedge body!! The stock chassis looked fast on the track....I'm going for that 1st place stock trophy....
Only 4 more weeks till the first race

Bud, do you have rental cars at Da Track on race days??

No rentals at this time.

Bud, I'll be up next week for some sprint car practice.

2sloww00>> Let me know what day so I can get it cleaned.
Are you going to the NORCAR swap meet?

Bud I should go and try to sell my gas stuff. I'll let you know.

I know there is a buy and sell forum but I thought I would let you guys who are running mini-ts see it first. I have a stock (it does have bearings) mini-t with a grand total of 3 runs on it (all in the house). I also have a painted parma body that I will include. Looking to get 100.00 for it. I do have a brp bumper that I have not put on that I will include as well. Let me know if you are interested.

Bud....I need to get a top deck for the L4 with so if you are coming to the track this weekend, please bring everything I will need out. Thanks

Eric

Joneser>> I will not be at the gate till maybe the swap meet. If you want email your address and I will send it.

Warbird was at DA Track putting in some testing and he looked pretty dialed. Looks like we will have a pretty good heat of sprinters this summer.

Track was in great shape, ran stock and sprinter No tire dope needed.

no tire dope....do you have a big wing on the stock car?

1.5" X 3"

You gettin that left front wheel off the ground, Warbird? That's how I can tell when mines hooked up!

just a little daylight under it, really chewed up the right rear, musta been leaning hard on it or something;)

Anyone coming out this weekend to test??? I understand SG1 and Zoom What a private test day :eek:

Looks like orange racer will be out Monday ! Anyone else coming out to run?

orange racer, did you get the e-mail I sent?

Team ION cannot say when they are going to BRP headquarters:)

Things are getting hot!! Dan K last years Mod champion will be running his testing program this weekend! Could Team ION be in trouble???

Team ION cannot say when they are going to BRP headquarters:):lol:

Did you ever find a "perfect" servo for your car Wayne? I am thinking of getting a JR3550 for mine.

I have been using the Futaba S9602. It is the perfect servo for the BRP...great size, fast.....it's just awsome! :)

I have been using the Futaba S9602. It is the perfect servo for the BRP...great size, fast.....it's just awsome! :)Yup-thats the one in my 12th scale right now and has been for two years. Love it.

Ray

Ray that is the best servo to get. Then you can use it in other things if you want. Will you be able to make it to the first race??? It would be a good time.

OK I need a roll call to get a idea on how much food to get for the first race!!!
So let me here from you. :thumbsup:

You can count on Ben and myself.

Bud -CJ and myself wil be there.If you can let me know what time everything starts i would appreciate it.Checked the schedule we got and it has no times on it.Thanks

I will be at Da Track!!!

Most get there about 9:00 sign up ends at 11:30 racing right at 12:00

I know I'll be there.... I'm sure team ZOOOOM will be there... and TANGTESTER has been secretly working on a special project for the first race. He counts as 2 people so have lots of "MAN SIZE WEENIES!!!!"

Don Williams will be there, but I might have to work. Won't know till Thursday.

Orange racer was at DA Track getting the dust off his car or was that on it :)

I'll be there.

Bud, CJ and I won't be able to make it now.I have to work that day until 12 or 1.We will stop out and see how everyone is doing when I get home from work.See ya soon.

HAY RICK AND I WILL BE THERE FOR SURE AND ANDY IS NOT SURE BECAUSE OF WORK. IT'S GOOD TO SEE ORANGE RACER IS STILL AROUND SEE YOU ALL ON THE 15th.

I will be in Baton Rouge for the week, Should be back late Friday night, plan is to thump all over Swamp thing on Saturday. See you guys there.

Looking like a good turnout I fig about 20 to 25 ,now let's hope the weather holds up.
I changed the entry fee slightly it is still $10.00 first class ,$5.00 second class but if you have your kids ( under age of say 15 ) and your racing there first class is only $5.00 second also $5.00
However the amount of food some of those kid's eat maybe I should charge them more :eek:
Dog's and Italian sausage B Our 2003 Mod champ Dan Kroff, If he can cook that is :thumbsup:
Word has it that Chuck Makin will be there hanging out :cool:

Have a question out to Futaba support now, but I will run it by you experianced drivers also. Have a new RC driver I have talked into the sport having some radio problems. I had him get the "Futaba 2PH 2-Channel AM/1 S3003/1 MC230CR" figured it would be the most cost efficiant way to get into racing. We are running BRP SC-18s' running on a 25X15 oval. He is experiancing lack of forward throttle here and there. When he has no forward, he still has steering and reverse? I thought it was only happening on the back straight, but yesterday it happened no more than two foot from us. The radio unit is not even a month old, so I'm sure futaba will cover what ever seems to be the problem. Next time we go out I am going to try one of my futaba AM recievers from my sons car. But I don't think this is where the problem lies. I am leaning more towards the ESC. Or how many of you are running an external antenna? We are both running with the hidden antenna setup. But I am running a FM KOPropo setup and having no problems. Let me know if you have any Ideas, thanks.


David

As you guys probably know, the Pa BuRPs will have to pass on this race, but I'm sure we'll catch up with you guys sometime this summer. Hope we all have good weather next weekend for racing and weddings!

Congrats to Canbquick & LLB!

KC: If your friend is running a hidden antenna, I highly suggest you try an antenna tube. If the ESC is setup right and you still have a problem, it may make quite a difference. I liked the looks of a hidden antenna much better, but after going to a 6"-8" tube I've had zero problems even on large tracks. You can attach an antenna holder on the center chassis screw, but you may need a longer 4-40 screw. Try it without the body to see if it helps before you cut another hole.
