Track was a little rough by the end of qualifying but was in great shape for main day!
It was a total blast watching the 'transformer' buggy running and Travis taking the buggy w/truck tires over the ramp!!!

WOW very good turnout..
yah those 10.5 sure are quick for the right tracks or conditions..
what did you finish in all your classes dakota??

Never use sauce at the Cactus. Dry, outdoor blue groove= plenty of traction

I have been to at least ten national races also the 2003 electric worlds and this race by far was the worst ran race I have ever been to. The sweepin before each race would have been fine if the track would have been closed for 1 of the 2 minutes between races but it wasnt. The favortism between some people was a joke some people getting docked laps and some people that did the exact same thing but the rule was not enforced. No organization at all, the whole thing with live rc is a complete joke and ended up with the police getting called. I will save my money for the Hot Rod race next year for sure.
