It's all good..

At least I'm not the only one tired..

Now if I can stop painting other people's bodies, and finish my own, maybe I would get a chance to catch a nap tomorrow afternoon. ..ok, yeah right..

One other note:

The qualifying heat sheet was not finished as of closing tonight, so we won't have it until the morning. Practice until noon tomorrow and then two full rounds, each 36 heats. Qualifying will probably continue until about 9 PM or so.

After that, I will do my best to get back here and get the site going. I'm trying to thrash as much as possible tonight so I can update tomorrow. As always, I usually get my act together by the second day of qualifying and start shooting a bunch of pictures up here.

Before heading to bed tonight I created the race page:
http://www.rctech.net/events/novak2004/index.shtml

Not too much there yet, but it's ready for everything to be dropped in tomorrow evening. I'll see you all then!

Nice catch I planned on getting a picture from Charlie & Bob Novak's pit, but I guess you already caught that.

It's an adjustable cell equalizer. This way you can adjust them for NiMH cells, and not have to "watch until the bulbs go out" like the other trays currently out there. The digital readout shows what you have it set at. It does need a power supply, but it sounded like Novak was going to include, or have a small one availible. It will be a little costly, and I'll double check on the price today, I don't want to give the wrong info.

Off to the races! I'll have more tonight...
