So, bring out the laptops and we'll see how good it works. :thumbsup:

Later, Tim Ski

Good news Tim, hope it works great for you.

Tim
Thanks for posting the weekly races, its nice to see the outcomes even if I can't be there.

Jim

Good day except for all the blown electronics. :freak:

Wow was it a tough day on electronics. 3 BL motors, 3 speed controls, 1 charger, 1 new battery that I know of. Expensive day I would say. Tim and Kyle lost both speed control and motors.

Track was quick though. Except for the ice patch in 1 and 2 that seems to be popping up. Had a good time anyway

AWESOME RACING TODAY!!

Legends are back! More and more 13.5 cars every week, great qualifying run Bill, new track record in 13.5, 66/5:04.434, breaking the old stock record. :) Super close racing 4300, less than .2 between 1st & 2nd and .6 between 3rd & 4th. :thumbsup:

Sorry about your LRP BBQ Kyle, that's two in two weeks! :mad: :confused: Might have to try the Orange.

NO RACING NEXT WEEK, October 28th!! Midwest Carpet Onroad Championships next week at the PLEX!!

See you all in two weeks!! :wave:

Tim Ski

Yes but the BBQ was so damn cool. Maybe orange is the way to go!

So tim are you going to pay hazard duty pay for putting out fires? electronic fires sure will clear out one sinus problems.

He should. I guess we need to have wire cutters with us now, when on marshaling duty.

Tim. I think the 13.5 class will get even bigger. From what I've been hearing there is going to be a good crowd of them for the two day. I predict that the track record will be broken by someone in every heat.

Glad to see the Legends. IMO this is a great starter class for a newbee and a fun class for those that don't want to spend alot of money and still get a great car. The owner of the new Legends company, I hear, is dedicated to continue to produce parts and kits so the parts for them will always be readily available. And the Plex is an excellent track for the Legends.

And congratulations from the Murdock family to Alex on the birth of his new son.

Alex--- I started my son in R/C with a Grasshopper when he was 8 years old and my daughter got a Hornet when she was 3. Almost 30 years later we are still having fun with this great sport. Wouldn't change a thing. Let us know what your son's first R/C car will be. Again Congrats.

See ya in 2 weeks,

Bill M.

It'll probably be the new 1/36 scale losi truck as soon as his hands are big enough to hold the controller. :thumbsup:

Or if Associated comes out with one, I'll buy it instead... :thumbsup:

Tim Ski

Had a good time Tim thanks for such a nice facility to race at. Car was wicked in the feature but still had a good time

Good time as usual, the additional traction seem to help as well.

Great runs Bill, and Nick. Also congrats to Rob also for the 4300 win. :thumbsup: If I was’nt for the 14 different posts on the product support page I would have never known. :D

Good to see oval at the plex growing again. Can’t want for the BRL event. I’ve got lot’s of guys talked into coming from far, far away to see why the plex is so awesome.

Thanks Sonny!! :wave: I can't wait for the Spring Sizzler, It's going to be AWESOME!!!

The track will be open this Saturday for practice @10AM. :thumbsup:
I'll have the computer up and running for laps.

Later,

Tim Ski

Thanks Tim and thank you for the point series prize. Had a lot of fun as always at the Plex. Anyone that has been here knows that this is one of the best.

Great to see some of the guys from Vinton over this Saturday. Always a great bunch to race with.

Hats off to Richard on his point series wins. But Richard outdid himself this weekend with the homemade fudge. Now I don't think Richard gets on these pages but for those of you who don't know Richard Hensley he always brings donuts. But this Sat. he brought donuts and WHAT HE SAID was HIS homemade fudge that he spent all night making. Now I don't care who made it but it was GOOOOOOOOOD !!!! We had fudge, donuts, and we also had some coffee. Once in awhile the Mullins' will bring cookies. Now it doesn't get anybetter then that---Fudge, donuts, coffee and cookies.

But the funniest thing this weekend was Eddie Ridley's wife whom I don't think has been at the track before. Her and some other women were placing bets on the car they thought was going to win each race. I believe Mrs. Ridley won twelve bucks. They were clapping and cheering and having a great time. But, as she was leaving, while counting her winnings, she turned around to some of us and said that the place smelled like a room full of old people wearing Ben Gay. Now if she thought that the place had a strong Ben Gay odor Saturday she should smell the place this March during the BRL race.

Sonny, I think the crowd in March will be big at the Plex So everyone bring your Ben Gay (Paragon) and let's fill this place up.

See Ya,

Bill Murdock

Bill, congrats on the point series win. I can't wait until I can make it back to the plex. It is an awesome facility. Also, congrats to Rob it sounds like you guys really have those cars hooked up.

The link to get track results does not work currently, is there a new link or any suggestions on a way to get points and race results.

Happy New Year

Jim

Tim is working on it.

Thanks I will be looking forward to the update.


Jim

Anybody have any ideas what is going on at HT. Website has been down and no annoucement if or when the next series starts.

www.hobbyplexraceway.com (http://www.hobbyplexraceway.com) New series starts this Sat 01/06/07

Yeah, what he said. :wave:

any other explosions after I left. No more charging at home!!

explosions???? I thought you were into electrical fires...Upgrading uh?Just teasing hyperdriver

Mike Soltau's Ip 4200 4 cell pack blew up today. The first cell went off in his hand, the second cell went off on his pit table. Then, Phil put the rest of the pack in a trash can and the third cell went off while in he was taking it outside. Finally, I heard the final cell blow up and I thought it was all over.

In about a half hour Roger called down and asked if I knew that there was a FIRE outside the back door.

Outside, the fire had completely melted the trash can and burnt all of the trash to a crisp.

It was the wierdest thing. I've seen more Nimh's blow up in the last six months than I've seen in my entire life.

I thought Lipo's were supposed to dangerous!

How bad did it mess up his hand??

The Captain blew up with wins in both B/L classes!

Way to go neighbor! :wave:

hot stuff
