Oh Mr. Tim, you must come race on the 16th of August in Huntington Beach at BGRC and Schelps auto body. I set up once a month and usually do a 3 tile track. It's to much fun.

Contact me and I will give you all the info.

Hi Bruce,

I wish I could make it--but I'll be up in Pismo squirting sand and surfing with my sons and girlfriend starting that weekend for a few days. I'll have to make it out the next month you set up!! Come on out to Matshushima's and race with us. We had 3 guys tonight tuning stock and modified cars. I'm getting a little better --I got my old Hitec Lynx modified with a KO 2.4 module so that I can drive left handed. I can at least get within 1/2 a second of the "fast boys" some of the time. I think I'll need a few weeks of practice and tuning on these little babies to really get competitive!! But--it's BIG FUN!!! Grant's got some guys coming out Sunday afternoon!! Come on out and check out his new track.
Tim

Hey---not when we've been racing lately!! Quit throwing on the cold water Grant!! We're trying to get MORE people in remember?
Come on---get your signs up on the windows next door!!! Let's start promoting MINI Z again!! It's not going to happen by itself--not with our current economy.
It's going to need uplifting energy---so down one of those energy drinks of yours and let's GO!!!

We had some fun at Matshushima's today-- met Bruce and a few other's. Grant says they are moving to Wed nights and Sunday afternoons for racing. I'll try to get the Gyro crew out this Wed to play.
Come on out and see how fun Mini Z is!!!! Inexpensive and very fast.
Let's Race!!!

Yes Wed. night will be sweet, Grants got the track hookin up.

BGRC will be runnin this Sunday at A1 auto body in Huntington Beach. It will be a test and tune day. Tim, it would be great if you could let the guys from Gyro know about BGRC and this Sunday.

Just met this guy and he's already 6th gear wide open about mini-z. Way to go Tim.

For more info on BGRC and Sunday the 16th you can contact me directly at kglick@socal.rr.com

Thanks,

Allrighty then----
Got my Pan car bodies painted and ready to run Wed night!! I should have some of the new F-1 2.4 cars from Kyosho to play with too!! I'm hoping I can get these babies set up where they actually handle well. My original F-1 Ferrari has a SERIOUS left hand tweak in the chassis. It took nearly an 1/8 Inch of washers stacked in the left side motor pod to correct the problem!!! WHAZZUP WITH THAT!!!!! But with the 30 fronts and 10 rears --it's finally drivable. But I guess I'll have to go with the carbon fiber pans and the PN aluminum rear motor pod to get closer. I've heard 2 degree steering knuckles too with yellow springs all around. Anyone else got suggestions??
Thanks
Tim

Yea, sell them and stick to the MR-02.

Tim you're killin me. You've been into mini-z for about 3 hours and already you have a painted pancar body, I had to bum one from Grant. I thought I was the only jerk that owned 7 cars you may have more than me. Are you trying to steal my thunder? The reason I have so many cars is due to the fact that I can't drive, so I make up for it with having many rides.

Do what you must.

Bruce
