I'll be there without a broken buggy. I'll get to replace that T-plate.

Still sucks about this weekend.

New layout should provide a new challenge for everyone on Saturday. I'm looking forward to driving the new track. I hope the track changes help to bunch up the field even closer than before and provide more heated battles for position throughout the entire field. I know there are at least 5 drivers out there that have recently got buggies that haven't raced them yet. Hopefully, they will be out there on the 8th making the 2wd buggy class even bigger than before!

No Rain, No Rain, No Rain!!!!!

There is another line of rain coming. It is in alabama right now. Hopefully next weekend I can make it. My losi system got back from horizon hobby today. I sent it in on monday and got it back today. They gave me a brand new system.

My buggy (B4) has arrived and I've got my electronics in it. I've played with it in the driveway to make sure everything works. I've looked at the Associated website at the basic setups and stuff - anything I should know that specifically relates to Turtle Trax? You know me - my driving is extremely precise and my line varies only by a couple of MM's from lap to lap.

I like vegetable oil in the rear shocks with the piston holes glued shut and chocolate syrup in the front shocks with no pistons. I use 3 40# turing springs stacked on each shock with the new mounts I can move the shocks out 5 more holes from stock. Right rear tire is a step pin filled with great stuff foam and the left rear is slick with loose change in it. 11* of positive camber and the left front toed in 4.7658* Hope this helps


Nah Im sure shaun sent you a good setup since he won't help me with mine I tried one of his and went back to the setup above.....Man I have been in the house way to long today.

Isn't that the Cavalieri set-up? It's close, but Cav uses Zesty Italian in the front shocks and his rear tires are filled with a wacky Mayo/Mustard combo.
