NAH -- he means I'm tough as shoe leather...

No Gary or Jared? Bummer!

Oh yeah Tom, I dont know if you heard or not but Paul got that indoor track for sure now to run touring car on carpet all winter now, so I guess this will mean, no more Tom???? I think i am going to sell the nitro tc and get a ele. one.
Is anyone planning on going up to Joes this weekend besides Brad and myself???

dustin

Is it a normal race at Joes this weekend? or a series race?

Oh and Dustin, you made it in the paper! I`ll bring a copy this weekend..

Dustin in the paper? ...? Police Reports ?... :devil: (Just kidding!)

its a series race

Yeah like Jesse said it is a series race. Why worrie Rich, the guy who beat you sold his 1/8 scale so he wont be there. Thank you for getting me one of those and hopefuly I will see you on saterday.

Superman

Lots of rain here in Moberly.. hope it doesn`t slow the race down tomorrow :(

it is a series race but if your not in the series you can race too.

should have my new revo broke in, it will be its first race.
hope to see you guys there.

bo

Hey Dustin,

Do you still have my blue flashpoint temp gun? I was looking for it today and couldn't find it and I know you are the last person that used it. Let me know.

Phil

Phil,

Hey, I dont ever recall using your temp gun. I have my own so I wouldnt use yours. I had mine in my pocket all day long, so I had mine with me. I went ahead and looked in my stuff though just in case and I didnt have it. So if you have any Q's call me on my cell at 424-4661 or I will keep trying your #.

Dustin

Rain? -- Doesn't hurt the racing at Home Depot!

Gonna put a 19t in one XXX-S, and a Stock in the other... I can run "Whatever"... :D

Dustin,

It wasn't this past weekend. It was like the beginning of July.. Doesn't matter, if you looked and don't have it thats fine with me.

Phil

Well,

Doesn't look like I'll be racing this weekend. Lots of "honey do's" to get finished. I think we might try and stop by Joes tomorrow and check it out. Don't think I will race though. Good luck everyone.

Phil

P.S. Tom, I have a couple of motors that need some attention, are you interested in working a couple of the over for me?

Phil I lost mine at about that time, I had to go and get a new one at Bo's so it wasnt me. I needed one myself. Yeah Phil you need to come up and watch the fast Associated do its thing. LOL ( Nick did you catch that) Inside joke guys.

Super-associated driver (dustin hodges) :)

Phil -- sure...

CARL'S DONE IT..FULL TIME RIDE NEXT YEAR IN THE NEXTEL CUP SERIES..CHECK IT OUT ...http://www.nascar.com/2004/news/headlines/cup/08/21/cedwards_sponsor/index.html

wierd dustin was trying to trade me a temp guage for a hot dog this weekend.


hhhmmmm.

heres how my racing was this weekend, first i found that my new p5s front seal was leaking and gave up on that and put my trusty vo1b in then i kinda tok a unfair win yesterday,
brandon and brad were both faster than me but in the maine brandon flamed out at the start and during warmup me and brad came up the straight at the same time and neither of us let up, hense he hit the pipe and broke a front arm, so i ended up winning but i think it would have been different if luck wasnt on my side.
but all in all it was fun.

wow lets talk about my luck saturday......ir89458thyukjweyg......and thats all i have to say about that (POLIETLY)...LOL

My luck was great. Serpent is running well...even though I ran faster with my NT than I did my sedan. :) 1st in both classes....but is that really unusual for me? *smile*

Sunday:
Electric Truck -- 2nd place, good run... (congrat's Jesse)
Nitro Truck -- 2nd place, good run... (congrat's Mitch)
Electric Sedan -- Donevenwannatalkaboudit...

Wow, it sounds like everyone had fun racing this weekend even Jesse. LOL Just kidding. Yeah I had some real fun with Brandon and I am looking to have some more fun this weekend at Jeff now that Brandon and Bo are driving 1/10 scale. I am going to go to the Jeff trophy race this weekend and race and check out the new track layout. Dont know if I will be able to make it this wed. guys. School is looking a little tougher now that i am in High School so I will have to see.

Dustin

I raced at the new improved Jeff City track on Sunday and really had a good time. I won Modified Electric, but Tom Gillmore and I had a really close race. They watered the track right before the mains and there was unbelievable traction. I could pull a wheelie almost anytime I tried. The track is more of a drivers track, where horsepower isn't going to make that much difference. I ran both my 1/8 scale and Savage and I couldn't get wide open very much with either of them, but the track is more like last years, alot more fun for everyone. I think everyone will really like the new track. Bo did a good job on it, there were still some ruff spots where bicycles rode on it and someone walked through the mud, but I think they are having a work day on Saturday, so the track should be near perfect for the Trophy race. Hope to see everyone there, if I can make it.

well gary what about the mini t , how did it do on the new track???????????

Tom,

Sorry I didn't get to come over and chat on Sunday but Marvin was saying that maybe this coming Saturday would be the trip to Springfield. We going? I was just wondering cause if we aren't going this weekend I'm going to try and make it to the Jeff City Trophy Race. Just let me know.

Also, Didn't know if you noticed but Bo has associated vcs shock kits on the 40% off table! I'm hoping to get a couple of sets this friday.

Later
Phil

Phil -- Marvin and I ARE still talking about Saturday at Springfield... I know it's a conflict with the Jeff City trophy race... (Edit -- No alternative date for about a month, so....)

Talk to Ron ("Rent-a-Ride") and post back here... If you guys aren't going to race Jeff, we're ON, if you are, let me know (edit) but Marvin and I will probably go ahead and go this weekend, and we'll try to plan another road trip in about a month...????

Hey folks, looks like there's a good chance I'll have a couple new engines this week for my gas cars. I should be able to make a cameo appearance this weekend for Jeff's trophy race. :)

Speaking of "cameo appearances"...

I think I saw John Randolph's picture the other day... On a milk carton! :D

So guys are we going to be racing this Wed. or not??? I am in if we are. If everyone that is going please post so we know.

Dustin

Speaking of "cameo appearances"...

I think I saw John Randolph's picture the other day... On a milk carton! :D

I'm still alive but hardly kickin' ... that fall I took a few Sundays back did more than hurt my hip and elbow, a few days later my neck started in. I've been in physical therapy and on meds the last 2-3 weeks trying to get over another pinched nerve in my neck. Crud, seems like the last two summers I get whammied in August with disk problems. I hope to race again soon ... maybe by September I'll be well enough. I got my Reflex NT going and it seems to be pretty hooked up! Right now though my main goal is to avoid another round of neck surgery ...

Tom,

I am definetly IN for springfield this weekend. I'll get with Ron and see if he is going or not. Do we need to take seperate vehicles or can we all fit in the RC BUS? I post after I talk to Ron tonight.

Phil

We probably will need 2 cars....

It sort of depends on how much "stuff" we all take, but the last time I think Marvin and I had the back FULL... :D

Well,

Looks like Ron isn't going to make it. He said that he and Robert had already planned to go to the trophy race on Sunday and he couldn't race both days. On an even more depressing note, Lisa reminded me of some bills that are due with this weeks check....hmm...I now have to wait until tomorrow (Wed) to inquire about how much my check will be before I can commit to any racing this weekend. Also, if we go Lisa will be coming because she wants to go to some places in springfield. This may give her some incentive to "find" the money to go! I'll post tomorrow night and let you know for sure if we are going.

Phil -- no problem... I FULLY understand the need to keep the SPONSOR happy... :devil:

ill be racing wednsday and i think gary ...what about you tom????

dustin

I sure hope you DID have enough -- I just couldn't make it up... Sorry...

Hey guys, just curious if anyone was headed up to Hallsville Saturday night. Considering the possibility of the trophy race being rained out on Sunday, I'd like to get some off-road in this weekend.

Hey! Carl WON the Truck race at Bristol last night! YIPPEE!

He qualified 5th or 6th, but spun out on his second lap of qualifying, and so they had to change the tires, and he had to start dead last on the field! Last to FIRST...

Hey Carl qualified 14th in the #203 MAC Tools Ford for the Busch race at Bristol! YIPPEE!

MMRCC TROPHY RACE CANCELED

Mid-MO R/C Club Races are canceled for tomorrow. The trophy race has been rescheduled to September 12th. The track and pit areas are just too swamped.

Hey guys, on my way home today I stopped by DirtBurners to run a few laps. FINALLY they have changed the track layout from the Kyosho Challenge. This new track is one you'll all want to see. It isn't too difficult and it's a whole lot of fun. It is VERY 1/10 scale friendly. I had no problems clearing every jump with gas truck and there was plenty of run-way for each jump. Took me only a tank of fuel before I could get around the track consistently. If you anyone out there was planning a trip to St. Louis anytime soon, this would a great time to go with such a nice track layout.

hi guys it's Curt I got a Savage up 4 sale if any one interested! email is rcone4u2@aol.com. hope to see ya on Sunday!!!!!!!

Jesse -- I got your motor done... Not too bad, just DIRTY and it needed the comm cut and some fresh brushes (the brushes were "gone" -- that's what made it get hot and smoke...)... Seems OK now... Just the "usual" fee...

OH -- if you think of it, bring that 30t pinion with you Wednesday night...


Ron -- You should have gone with us Saturday! Good racing... Maybe next time?

I'm ready to test run the 4wd buggy tonight. Anyone else going to Hallsville?

I've got the truck, buggy, and 4wd ready, and batteries charged... I just hope the 4wd remembers it's way around the track, because it's been so long since I ran it... LOL! :D

Anyone know what the track is like? I'm sort of assuming dry/slick/dusty...?

Tom,

I stopped by and watered the track last night, so it should be ok for you all tonight. I'll probably stop by and watch but won't be there to race.

later
Phil
