I will get my 1/12th scale going for the week of the 27th. I won't be around this weekend so I will have to let Ivan win this weekend.

The 1/12 scales I think should run a 27t motor as the 19t looked a little fast for the track this past weekend.

Of course having said this I have never raced a 1/12 scale. I'm looking forward to it as it will be another class.

Brad.....I think with 1/12th scale you just mash the throttle and hold it that way!!! (Kidding!!) (PM better stock some spare 1/12th parts!!!) I think you'll really enjoy it....from what I remember....a real drivers type of feel.....and much more precise than the Mini's.....have fun....I can't wait to start up in September again.....

Always like your racing attitude Jim.

Colin, it doesn't matter what place you finish as long as you have fun! I've always enjoyed racing against you and have learned a lot from you since i started a couple years back. Thanks.

Brad, i appreciate the charity. You also never know, all the beginners are getting faster and more consistent. You can see the improvement weekly.

Roy, looking forward to September, cause i'm looking forward to resuming the beating i gave you in Carcar a couple years back! Especially now that you've sold out on the T2R.

Whoever else has a mini and wants to come out, it's a guaranteed great time!

Roy...I'm sorry. I forgot. We didn't have enough racers so we didn't bring out the computer so therefore i didn't see your mini. My bad. I'll make it up to you somehow. I'll try to coordinate with Craig on Wednesday if he practices i'll make it down there to pick it up or you can use my spare mini anytime until i pick it up for you. Sorry, I'll let you take a lap lead next time for a short while okay?

Great racing Sunday night again! Nice to see you out Colin and some of the other new racers. Everyone is getting faster and my days in the lead may be numbered. It might even be by kids that don't even have their driver's licenses yet!!! Scary.

See everyone in 2 weeks!

Right about the time you guys were getting the racing underway, I was a passenger in an 08 Mustang GT convertible. We were doing somewhere around 220-240kph on highway.....on a highway somewhere, with the top down.

It was a litle noisy, but we seemed to get home faster than usual.
