I know AE has those chassis that you can still buy. I would ask him to send the chassis back and you will send him the new one.

Paul

Thanks Paul!!

I take it you, Rice, Buran, and all the regulars are running Sedan-not 12th tomorrow? And stock not mod? I didnt pack any 12th stuff or any mod motors.

I am running both along with Joneser. Rice and Buran are running 1/12 only. All stock.

Paul

ZOOOOM-I think 5pm has been the time for race night last two races.

Paul-cool. I was hoping Buran and Rice would take out the TC3's for one last hoorah, but oh well.

krisgel-is the Xray ready for battle tomorrow night?

Ray,

The 12L4 is ready for battle tomorrow. The x-ray will be ready for practice the following week. For a while I think I will just race and practice with the x-ray to see how I like it. I'll leave the 12 scale at home for a while.

I'll run your 12L4 if its just gonna sit and collect dust. :lol: j/k.

Cool-see ya tomorrow.

So-are we going to see the first 26 lap run in Sedan tonight...hhhmmmm.....

Better come race tonight and see. :lol:

Lets run Mod Sedan August 24th. A lot of us said wed run Mod all summer to be better drivers come fall. What happen-We all trip on our skirts??

Ray

Im comin tonight!!
-Buddy

Still a no show for me! just got back from VT, NH. ME, and CT need to chill for a few days! 2600 miles in 6 days!

Guys I have to say I had some fun tonight, even though I broke in practice and the first qualifier.

You guys at least had replacement parts - of which I like to order more for myself if I can for pick up at practice next week.

I did very well I think for not racing on-road 12th scale for 12 years, pulled a 31 out of the air on the second qualifier.

I can say that things have definatley changed since I last races in Sandusky's old carpet track. I know Bud Bartos ran there many a time.

Everyone was freindly and helpful. I raced hard but let you faster guys go by to keep the race interesting and fun - just watch out here in the near future once I get back into the groove.

Thanks for a fun night and hope to have for fun soon.......

The auto-announcer was a little anoying since I could really not understand what see was trying to say but chris's color announcing was funny and kept things going along.

Sorry for the book but I have not a fun time like that in a very long time especially with what is going on in my personal and work life.

See ya later

MC

MC

Glad you had fun! Returning from a 12 year break, you did great. After a few practice sessions, and some summer races, I'm sure you will be ready to rub fenders with the best of them. On our ride home last night, my brother and I were talking about all of the racer we are looking forward to seeing this fall!

Welcome aboard! I may be hard to believe but it's only going to get better!

Pete

Booyah. There were some great battles last night. MC, I am glad to hear that your evening was an enjoyable one. I hope there will be many more of those here at The Gate this fall. In fact, I know there will be. We just need to get someone qualified to be behind the mic. :eek:

FYI - We do encourage volunteers. Thanks to Pete who always steps it up in those clutch situations. :thumbsup:

Thanks to everyone who participated last night and went through the painstaking process of completing the signup sheets. All of your home addresses will soon be posted to the website. :devil: Nah. We had some new faces that will, hopefully, be considered regulars shortly. Welcome!

Some highlites form the evening for those who missed it:

Ray Adams 11.9 lap in Main-Yeah baby!!

Chicky 26 laps in Sedan!! And some said it would never happen.

Goetz Breakin out the 25 5:07!!! NIce run.

Another GREAT 12th scale B-Main. Dave lead most of the way-Ray was by far the fastest, Dan MEdved won on the last lap!! Ummm-Ray-looks like yur headin for the show next race. Leave the TC3 at home!!

Wayne-running the Secret weapon!! Looks cool!! HOw do you like it so far?

Ray

I can't wait for the fall season to start. Last night was pretty fun, though i didnt get home till 1215, i still made it through work today, lol. When are you going to update the results page on the site? Awesome announcing Christoper!
SWEET SASSY MALLASY(spelling?)
-Buddy

YOu call it Great announcing...I quote from Shrek "Look its Gabby-the small...and annoying...." Which-by the way-Audrey kept saying this morning-HI larious!! Shes 2.

Ray,

g g g g g GAY-you Sassy Mallasy!!


OH-and E M B's!!!

Hey Ray...
From what I was able to see of it, not too bad. Shoulda put the new front end on, but I ran out of time and parts. It shows promise, I was happy not to break anything!!! I was just a bit overgeared, 3 teeth, but was happy with it's first outing.

sg1-youre 11.3 was most impressive!!! It looked good. Cannot wait to see it develop further.

Pictures, full description, the world wants to know.....

Unfortuniatly the result will probably not make it up to the web. We are having technical difficulties doing so. Need to talk with JLAP on this one.


Jim

Hey Guys,


I'm here working on the computer at the track while talking with JLAP, trying to get the results on-line. We have just succeeded, the results are online now. Check them out.

Jim

Thanks Jim!!

Good luck in Detroit if you go.

Xray Testing?!!!!!Hey Guys,


I'm here working on the computer at the track while talking with JLAP, trying to get the results on-line. We have just succeeded, the results are online now. Check them out.

Jim

Good to hear everyone having a good time. I will be there this coming Tuesday, the 17th to race. Planning on running mod, but if not, I need to borrow a decent stock motor. Have not and will not touch my stockers from last season. Got my new batteries built. Can't wait to pick up my new motor and tire lathe on Tuesday as well. :) What time do the doors open? I can show up by noon :) Or whenever I recover enough from playing with the big car all day Monday at Beaver Run. See you guys then. :)

Eric the 17th isn't a race day. It is a practice night.


Jim

Jonser,

X-Ray testing? Not a chance, picked up the TC3 kit that was there and started building.

Going back to the TC3 Jimmy?
-Buddy

You are crazy!Jonser,

X-Ray testing? Not a chance, picked up the TC3 kit that was there and started building.

If anyone of the gate regulars are interested, I have a couple of Novak XXtra synthesized receivers for sale. One has a brand new case so its like new...70.00 and the other has a case that shows a little wear but it is 60.00.

Jimmy-please give me first dibs on your Xray if you decide to sell it later. Also-A buddy is talking about buyng two FKXrays and diffs. Any ETA?
Ray

Jimmy-also-I need a KO 949 or JR 3550 servo asap. Got one by chance at AJ's?

Just rebuilt my 12L4-finished wiring it-turn it on and servos bugging out. I plug a bunch of other servos in-dead still. PLug the KO back in three or four times-bad-rip it out-wet shoo-goo and all.... @!@%!$@%@$#!@$! IT!!!!

Joneser I will take the one with a little wear of your hands for $60.

I will be up at the gate for practice Tuesday if you are going to be there and I can give you the money.

I will be with "Pinky" I mean Buddy Blystone - pitting and racing with him.

Hold it for me if you can.

Thanks

MC

MCrctazman,
Hey I am from the sandusky area originally and used to race at hi level raceway and the fair grounds, and toledo, and it was about as long ago as the last time you raced, whats your name? I wish i would have made it tuesday to see ya, sure we know eachother.

Booyah. There were some great battles last night. MC, I am glad to hear that your evening was an enjoyable one. I hope there will be many more of those here at The Gate this fall. In fact, I know there will be. We just need to get someone qualified to be behind the mic. :eek:

We had some new faces that will, hopefully, be considered regulars shortly. Welcome! Addys? wow now we will get spam from the track! LOL

hmmm....some random thoughts I have to type out.

Goetz-I have never had so much fun qualifying and racing the Mains!! Just think if a third driva were to enter our insane mm apart battles!!! I think I would go into overload.

Talking about steppin it up-Dan Medved, Ray Adams and Dave Usnik. YOu guys have awesome handling 12th scales and are driving them GREAT!! IN sedan-Brian, Jen and Marlon Tuesday-you guys/gal were driving lines and hitting them apex's!!

yeah-Chicky-I'd buy him another TC3 if hed take it!! HOw would my buddy Robby Love say it ....Flat DIALED!!

SOme new nicknames-Hey I cannot be the only sucka at the track with 2 or 3 nicknames....

Joneser-"Two-Speed". Why? Because theres how butt-a$$ slow he drives when hes by himself and how fast he goes when either:

a. Chicky, Wayne or Dave Morrow is somewhere within a corner of him.

b. Hes about to be caught by me, Rice or Pete!!!

Brian Rice-nope its not Ricer or Rice-a-roni or even the Ricernator....Its "Second-Hand" Why? Becuase when he runs 41 laps or TQ's-its always my motor, or Chicky's batteries, or.......

Buddy-Its turning out to look like its "pinky" Better paint a new body before that one sticks to you.

Goetz-theres got to be one-its amazing one isnt just glaring me in the face. C-balls cool-if you know the story behind it-but it aint racing related...... I guess it could be "mf-bomber", but thats kind of....well-just not right.

I'll take "pinky", Me and Chris are gonna strip and anodize everything on my TC3 PINK!If he ever gets around to getting the setup for it...*hint hint*, Its gonna be awsome. Any suggestions on where to get my next 2-3 packs for the fall season? And its HOO HONG for you Ray.
-Buddy (PINKY)

Buddy-AJ's hobbies of course!!! I can tell Jimmy where to get killer the cells and when. I am not as connected in the GP world as I was-but I still gather a little good info now and again... I have nothing else to do.... Anyone want to hire me?

Ray

I have nothing else to do.... Anyone want to hire me?

Ray
I need a receptionist.:)

.

Talking about steppin it up-Dan Medved, Ray Adams and Dave Usnik. YOu guys have awesome handling 12th scales and are driving them GREAT!! .
VICTORY WILL BE MINE! (someday):rolleyes:

I keep saying the same thing!!!VICTORY WILL BE MINE! (someday):rolleyes:

Oh-another randon thought-if you found your cars handling different or edgier than normal Tuesday night-grip was very high. High grip almost always demands a set-up change. Those changes for 12th scale include smaller tires, lower ride height, harder front tires or front springs.

IN Sedan-it can be as easy as a sway bar, heavier shockoil and lower ride height and smaller tires.

These changes arent always for a "faster" car-but a lot easier to drive. And sometimes easier to drive IS FASTER!!

Ray

What kind of cells (fuk., kinetix, ect)? And how much a pack?
-Buddy

And how much a pack?
-BuddyHow fast do you want to go? $49 to $79 is the range. Thats 1.170 to 1.179 voltage.

Call me Buddy-1-440-735-9095 for some info....

And no-I am not ging to try and sell you anything-excpet a Gen-set if you need a 12,000 Watt one for some reason!! :lol:
