shawnleary 06-15-2004, 01:04 AM RCThunder Storms are in the forcast for this Friday, will you have your umbrella or will you be left "out in the rain".... or should I say, left out of the MAIN. 19t is gonna be on FIRE. Can't wait to get my a$$ handed to me again. You can't get better unless you are challenged, and EVERYONE has been wrenching like crazy since the 28th of May.
Is it Friday yet?
shawnleary 06-15-2004, 01:07 AM I agree with making the area in front of the stand off limits during heats. Like Katfish said, $^&# happens, let's try and make it smell as good as it possibly can ;)

davepull 06-16-2004, 11:48 PM sure is quiet see what happens when fast guys show up everybody stays off the pc and works on there cars. that mean there should be alot of ill handling cars friday night!!!!!!!
Echeconnee 06-17-2004, 07:12 AM I think you hit the nail on the head Dave, lol
David Butts 06-17-2004, 07:49 AM Well as friday night draws near the weather forecast still looks the same. Hmm? I sure hope everyone that has an ez-up style tent brings it. A small shower doesnt put us out of business but a gullywasher and thats it for the night.
Yes it has been unusually quiet on here. Anyone practicing tonight? Not me as I really have to start getting some things ready to move. Less than two weeks left at this address and I'm really gonna miss my air conditioned garage with lights and workbench/shelves everywhere. Due to the move I wont be able to make the region 4 race at RPM and maybe not here on the 25th. My chances for this point series are looking pretty dim right about now.
shawnleary 06-17-2004, 11:50 AM Too quiet in here. I'm going to practice tonight with Jason if it isn't raining out.
davepull 06-17-2004, 07:27 PM I stop buy the track today to look at the light. I'll bring the bulb what ticks me a little is once again someone was trueing tires in the place were I usually pit. I know it is a free world and I can't tell you not to do it but what getts me is just because you are outside doesn't mean you can leave the mess. have a little courtesy for the rest of us and clean up your mess.

Dave's right . Man if you make the mess and you know someone is going to use that pit after you then you need to show some class and clean it up. I'm not talking about using lemon fresh pledge on the wood , but wipe your trued tire crap off . damn!! That would Pi$$ me off too.
davepull 06-17-2004, 09:46 PM just got done out in the garge dialing my self futher off the place. installed a new 4 cell tray and a new front bumper. aaaahhhhh the feeling of graphite and the smell of superglue!!!!!!!
rcgen 06-17-2004, 10:02 PM Friday, partly cloudy. a 40 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon. patchy fog in the morning. highs in the upper 80s near the coast, lower 90s inland. southeast winds 5 to 10 mph.
Friday night, partly cloudy. a 30 percent chance of evening showers and thunderstorms. patchy fog after midnight. lows in the mid 70s. south winds 5 to 10 mph.
We're going racing guys... :p
David Butts 06-17-2004, 10:03 PM aaaahhhhh the feeling of graphite and the smell of superglue!!!!!!!
Oh yeah I know all too well the smell of graphite and super glue. If the weather tomorrow night is anything like it was tonight, Oh boy we're gonna have a good time. It's beautiful out tonight.
davepull 06-17-2004, 10:27 PM the only bad thing is I made the mistake of scratching the catbrains. man that sucks!!!!!!!

rcgen 06-17-2004, 10:43 PM Road trip to Bradford this Saturday...one night of racing is not enough for me... :eek:
davepull 06-17-2004, 10:47 PM hey tim you have a trailer full of rc stuff live in jacksonville but have only raced a couple of times. what gives?
Are you coming to race tomarrow night?
shawnleary 06-18-2004, 08:18 AM I made to the track last night, Tom, Jason, Jeremy, Bear, Brad, Earl were testing and tuning. The track was really fast last night, the temp cooled and there was a nice breeze. The humidity wasn't bad and it almost felt like Spring time again. Should be great conditions tonight if it holds.
shawnleary 06-18-2004, 05:50 PM And after all that work, not gonna make it tonight... oh well.. no excuses. I'm going to try and make it to watch the mains.
Shumacher 99 06-20-2004, 12:37 AM Congrats to Steve Short yesterday for winning and TQ-ing 4-cell stock. Took me all race to catch him after my 5th place starting spot. When I fianlly did catch him I was such in a hurry that a spun us both out. Oh well! can't win um all..It was fun racin ya though Steve.
Hank80 06-20-2004, 12:40 AM Where is the Dave Butts (tm), report from last nite? Hopefully he'll do it this weekend. I remember last nite he mentioned he was working today. Looking forward to reading his re-cap of the night!
shrabber 06-20-2004, 11:23 AM No Excuse Dave Im In The Process Of Selling My Home And Theres A Bunch Of Honey Doos Going On I Would Love To Go Not To Mention Im On The Southside Of Town And I Work Till 6.most Of You Guys Do Better Sacrificng Than Me Maybe I Should Take Notes
Shumacher 99 06-21-2004, 11:44 AM Hey guys looking for a used Gt7 or Quantum to buy. Need one for my trouring car short on funds (baby on the way). If you have anything besides the two I mentioned along the same lines in another speedo LMK.
Thanks Chris
Donnie_99 06-21-2004, 11:50 AM it was my first time there had a good time . yall got a nice track to race on. nice to finally meet david butts nice guy hated to see the argument after the 19t a-main though.
Donnie
rcgen 06-21-2004, 01:18 PM Did I miss something? Good thing it was real late and we had to leave early. I wouldn't want an 8 year old see grown men arguing over toy cars. :jest:
Hope you guys settled it and lets race Friday :thumbsup:
DEEPBLUE 06-21-2004, 06:56 PM First off I would like to apologize for the language I used on friday night it was uncalled for and I take full responsibility, but I will not be belittled by anybody and I would hope that most of you will understand that. If you would like to talk to me you may call me @ (???) ???-????. ( I stay up till 1:00 or 2:00 am every night. ) I may not always do things the right way but I will stand up for myself and frinds no matter what.... I also think that on the track or on any thred if you do not have anything nice to say than you do not need to say anything at all. I try to encourage all racers to do well and give them my advice when asked, but I try not to be negitive about the way they race or set up there car. If we can not be helpful to each other in a postive way than we need to mind to our own racing. I will be open to any of youguys that would like to talk to me the number is above and hope to talk to you soon or see you on friday.
Thanks,
John
Driver13 06-21-2004, 09:14 PM Hi guys, I am new to the area and just found out about this site. First let me say it is a nice track that you have. I have been out the past two friday nights to watch the racing and I got to see the above mentioned incident. from my vantage point I saw and heard the whole thing. I don't not know the names but I take it that the bigger guy with the white shirt and longer hair is the person above John the race director and the guy with the 17 car was a racer. This is my take John ( I love that Dave Despain guy on speed). You told that racer to shut his f$#@!() mouth and to stop whinning then that racer told you to shut up and you let off with some more bad language and followed it with come on lets go. You challange him to a fight and got in his face that racer said something like it was not a big deal these are toy cars and you told him to pack his more foul langage and get out.
The way I see it is you belittled that racer first with all the foul langage which also offened me. then you challange him to a fight. You were very wrong and caused all of this. that racer handled it better than I would have. I where I come from you would be asked to leave and not come back and you being an employee of Hobby World makes it worse.
Like I said the first time I saw the track I liked it but then I went to the last to races and saw this the first night I watch 1 round and was not impressed with the way it was run you John were burping in the PA system and playing ring tones from your phone which I thought was very inmature. and to top it off you guys started late. I was not impressed.
The second night was much more of the same only with the Race director trying to start a fight. so I will say this, I was going to buy a oval car and race but I think I'll take my business else where as long as this guy is running things. Are there any other tracks in the area?

DEEPBLUE 06-21-2004, 11:44 PM Ted, you are right you have not been around much and so you dont know the whole story. Also I never said lets go to Dave so you need to mind your own business. I told him to go not lets go so please get it stright. And I did not have any conflicts the week befor so once agian get you story stright.
I dont care about this crap. If Ted or Dave want to run the races thats fine by me I will stay home and get more work done. Thoes two guys can buy the A&B system and do it thereself. Im out!! I am not going to deal with a__holes like that any more.
If you want my number you can PM me.
shawnleary 06-21-2004, 11:58 PM That was quick Eche.
I guess I missed some drama last Friday.
I'll be gone for the next two Friday's. Please still have a race program to come back too!!
Shawn
ps. does ROAR cover verbal damages? ;) j/k
New92 06-22-2004, 12:10 AM The problem is people blow things out of proportion from the get go. Everyone should just remember we are all out there to have fun. If you are not having fun dont do it, its as simple as that. I could care less about other people's drama as long as their is someone out there I am happy.
Ted, its your perogative if you dont want to go out to HobbyWorld. But I dont think its too cool to start new threads bad mouthing the track when you have been there 2 times. I have only been racing about 4 months but I have been going to the track alot longer than that and I have never seen anything even remotely close to drama a side from Friday night. People have tempers and they let them get away. John, came on here and apologized. People should let it go.....remember its toy cars and we are adults....
As far as the PA system, the last 2 nights have been the only times that has happened and the way I took it was a roundabout way to get on the turn marshall's nerves, or at least get their attention so that we could start the next race. Thats why it always takes so long to get started, no one wants to do their duty and marshall.
Oh well, I dont really care as long as someone is there to race. But people need to let the name slinging go....
DEEPBLUE 06-22-2004, 12:12 AM Any one want to buy trailer with everything in it PM me or e-mail me.
New92 06-22-2004, 12:16 AM You always regret things you sell, lol. Dont do it. :)
Shumacher 99 06-22-2004, 12:22 AM My God people this is suppose to be fun. I pit in John Harts trailer and he has always been a nice guy and willing to help me when ever I needed it. Dave Pull is a friend of mine who hang out with off the track and also has been very helpful to me. I hate this crap going on right now and I won't take sides because I'm friends with both but I wish we could get this settled and get back to racing and having a good time. I know some $hit was said that you can't take back and everyone might not agree with how the races are run. But everyone is missing the point. IT'S FOR FUN! It's not suppose to be a place of stress ( I get that at home) We run late most nights not because of John Hart but most times It's because insted of pulling your car off the track and taking out your transponder and getting ready for turn marshling we all take our sweet time and go back to the pits, unhook our battery ,talk about how that race went with your fellow race mates and by that time we have screamed for turn marshals for 10 min. It's not one persons faultthat we run late , we all could get out earlier if we all do our part. I love racing at HW and I like just about everyone up there ,Except that Chris Garland guy and his goofy a$$ brother..Lets just have fun and stop tring to makle it stressful on anyone.
P.S. Driver 13 Buy a car, come race then I'll listen to what you have to say . Thanks for your 2 cents and stiring the crap up again. If your not going to help then keep quite.
New92 06-22-2004, 12:28 AM Yea, I am with you....Chris is a moron.
I am friends with both Dave and John as well, and think they both need to sit down, realize that the past is the past and just get back to having fun. Along with the rest of us.
Heck, if it makes you feel any better come yell at me next time. I dont care lol. Nothing out there stresses me out....since I got rid of the TC3 anyway lol.
Anyway, my main point was yes, Chris is a moron.
:)

Ted Peterson
This is basicly a tape recording of what actually happened along with the "thats it, Come on lets go" I've stayed quiet until now but as a close witness to the whole exchange of words and actions from both parties involved. I'ts doubly bad that a newcomer Ted says his say and then he's told to stay out of it. ?? People, This guy apparently had a better view of it then I and I was only four feet away. Ted, Thanks for your view on this ridiculous turn of events that happened at a place I have had many good times over the last almost twenty years.
Here it is in print. I, David Butts will no longer race, participate, or be any part of racing at Hobby World. If it had not been for John Pilgrims intervention there's no telling what may have happened and for that I salute mr. Pilgrim. Everyone that was within earshot of the computer area saw what really happened including our guests from Macon and one of them was an 8 year old boy. Hmmm? The truth cant be made up
Shumacher 99 06-22-2004, 07:54 AM Sorry to here that you won't be racing anymore Butts (TM) I don't know when a couple guys running a toy car in a circle got to be such a big deal... SAD
