Is the weather going to hold for this weekend? If it rains out on Sat, are you going to reschedule for Sunday?

Great question! Friday looks like heavy rain. But there's still a 50% chance it doesn't rain! Glass half full!!!!! I've been out a few times when I thought it would rain and the weather was awesome! Spin that wheel roulette man!!!

Supposedly it rained all day here yesteday yet we never saw a drop at the track We wouldn't run sunday I dont think because we packed the dirt so hard that if it rains a ton on us saturday we wont be able to have the track dry enough to run sunday.

Thats all up to Gene though, he runs everything outside and I just keep my nose in the hobby shops buisness

We will watch the weather and see what happens. Tomorrow night will be the real decider. If we dodge the rain tomorrow then Saturday will probably be fine. The weather report shows 40% for tomorrow and 40% for Saturday but shows 60% for Sunday. We will just have to see what happens but for now it's still Saturday at 2PM.

Trying to move to a Novak 13.5 from the Titan powered Slash. How do you guys suggest I gear the Blitz with the 83t spur?

I'm sure you could practice some monday if the track is ok, depends on if we get a flood or not. Just call before you start to head out and we'll make sure someone is here and that you don't waste a trip if the track isn't up for it.

Hard to give you exact gearing without knowing what esc, but start around 12.5 FDR and adjust from there at the track.

Thats alright, I went to solder some tabs on those NiMh's I had and realized that one of them was coming apart and I didn't want to risk charging it so I just dumped the pack.
