Hey yeah sorry, you probably dont know me, my name is Michael Russell, I've been reading the thread lately, cos Ben and Michael have been singing the praises of the st ives track and ive always liked the layout, and now ive got the gas truck, i have been looking into tracks that cater for it, and saw u guys having a nice class, and you seem to be the man at the moment taking the last two wins, so i thought i'd find out what people are driving, i got the RTR, just cos its a cheap way to get into gas and see whats its all about

Ah ok, I thought you may be a regular at the track.

Yeah it's a good track. The layout is nice and fast, it's super grippy, and unless the weather is mean to us (ie a month of hot hot days that just wreaks havoc on the surface), then it's very predictable too.

Being a fast track makes it's a little easier for nitro as well. It would be great to see you down there man.

Thanks for the kind words re: the photos guys. I like how you can read "Ben Panic" on the window. When you zoom into the photo it's really clear. They are cool stickers... I'm going to have to write to oOple...

I must say that I think I have several awesome shots from that day and I'll put them up on the site either tonight or tomorrow morning if I get the chance. I'd also like to print a few of them out for their owners onto A4 sheets. I think you'll be delighted with the results

I took most of them at large format so they'd even print out fantastically onto A3 size if you want a serious poster for your bedroom or workshop. I can't print at A3 so if you wanted to do that, PM me your email address and I'll send you full res pics. You could get it done at a print shop for a reasonable price. (the ones on the web are seriously compressed so the quality is low...)

Thanks again,
Waz.

Not in pieces but I think I have a good one or two perhaps of b&p at some stage. I got an awesome shot of your wing that is really in focus, I was just a bit late to get the whole vehicle

Sorry Funk, I only have this one and it's not the best Stock is hard for me coz I'm usually racing too! Next time I'm up with my camera, I'll make sure I get some sick ones.

Remember, anyone who wants some nice photos of their car just let me know. Do realise that it can be tricky coz I don't always have my camera with me and I also need to marshal (and race too!!! ). I think Marg has been quite generous with me on those occasions that I am seemingly "passed out" in the middle of the track.

Cheers,
B4Bandit.
