Nothing beats hearing a stripper crying all night in your room WOW!
You guys plan on taking in homeless strippers again this year?

That whole thing was because i started to say hello to everyone we passed hahaha. Wasnt my idea to have the person hang out with us all night and make me sleep with one eye open because she could have killed us. Crazy strippers....... Priceless vegas stories.......

You going to pit next to us again to hear the other crazy things that happen with us? lolololol

How ugly was she? Lolololol, at least you know when to fear for your life, which is more than i could say about a few basketball teammates of mine at their summer tourney in 2004. Dont forget to sleep with your wallet on a chain around your neck!!

She wasn't bad, looked like the typical Vegas stripper. This year Ray's coming so we'll be sure to have stories of foreign chicks assaulting him like back at IIC 2008.

Back to racing, is it time for Vegas yet or what!!!

True, but the ROAR list is a starting point .. if an ESC didn't pass ROAR's tests then there is no point in testing any further. If it did, then that is another story on race day i.e oscilloscope.

The Orca wasn't on the approved list during last years IIC and to this day still isn't ..

If a certain Speedo company is a main sponsor it would be hard for Scotty to say you can't run them! I may have one in my box just in case!

Sponsoring the race should have nothing to do with the racing rules...

On that note, if you can't have your equipment showcased at the race, why spend the money?

Dont have to say you can not run them. By all means you can run them in a mod class. The only thing people are asking if we we follow ROAR rules for blinky class, then that speedo is not approved for blinkly class. If argument is this not a ROAR race why do the the other speedos have to follow ROAR rules?

Bingo Tim. If it doesnt have to be a roar approved speedo then you should be able to run tekin v 208 without issue.

I'm sure people will also be running hand wound motors in the stock classes too. Which I find ridiculous as well.

I cannot buy/find a latest hotness motor that matches the roar uH list. I know my 875b meter is spot on because I have my novak 17.5 at 35 uH.

I really wish we just had hand out motors again. The amateur guys are lucky..
