Hey Dawn, just a question. According to this rule:12.4.3 Vehicles, parts, and accessories used in Stock electric classes must be readily available through retail outlets at least 14 days prior to the event.
Wouldn't the LRP BL motors that showed up at the Carpet Nats on the Friday of that race not have been legal?

I've been reading the posts for the last few weeks on the thread and to be honest I'm not sure why anyone would want to run ROAR onroad with all these rules and last minute rule changes and whether or not the trophy girls were tasteful at a banquet held by the owner of the track. What happened to the good ol days? I've run a couple of Nationals in offroad and never saw any of this drama. Could be why onroad isn't doing very well when you look at it from someone wanting to take it to the next level. I've been a ROAR member off and on for about 15 yrs. and I've seen it good and bad. Actually think its on the good side right now but too many rules and regulations and it'll end up like Nascar......yaaaawn. Oh and Dawn....stop editing. I like it when you get fired up! I've actually turned the tv off lately just so I can read these posts!!

As I am a manufactures dream, ask Ruben he can tell you all the parts I broke this past week, I must say that I am a little Dissapointed in the some of the "pro" racers. This was an excellent event produced very well by the track owner and his team( thank you "Q" and the gang).the race was run very well by the R.O.A.R. team as well, (thanks Ruben and his crew for that).
This second guessing crap and the accusations of cheating are the results of small people with big chips on their shoulders.I for one think that this was awsome event. how about some postive comments for these peoples efforts? huh?
Quniton and Ruben is was a pleasure to race with you guys...WELL DONE ALL!

Don't cry if things did not go your way or if you felt that things should have been to your standards. I gave my time and effort to help make this better for everyone. Q spent more then 100 hours that week to make sure that everyone at the event had a good time and people are still complaining. GROW UP! This was about FUN and if you did not have fun it was by choice. IF you are one of the bashers of the event don't slander the staff of roar or any one that helped in making this a good event.

I talked to Q yesterday and he's ready for the next big race already!! Although Ive already thanked everyone that was involved I did forget the local guys that put in their time and took away from their racing at the event. So to 88Crew cheif and Hungover Racer along with all the others that I can not think of the names thank you for your efforts. You all did an awesome job tolerating the heat and racers all week.
