Friday's report is now posted at SGrid Online, www.sgrid.com. There's an image gallery with 120 or so photos in 'flash' format of many of the racers at the event.

Today was a very long day, and it's now 1:30am. I'll copy over a couple of photos now, and some more tomorrow.

Guys...

Scott Kimbrow is doing a blog on our site. He has given updates that last two nights...figured some of you might want to check it out.

I was told qualifying is "rocket round".

Thanks to Dan Louis, I've now got a wireless connection right from the track, via AT&T. It's even pretty fast. Maybe this is something I need to look into.

I spent today taking photos I missed earlier. They'll be posted by later on today, meaning maybe I can even get a good night's sleep tonight...

Congratulation to Rick Vessell for his A-Main 4th place finish with the Team Magic G4RS, as well as his IGT TQ and 1st place finish.....also a big one for Andy Power for his 3rd place A-main TC finish. And I believe Josh Cyrul 2nd and Bobby Flack took the win...congrat to everyone in this race.

P.S...also, great finish for Barry Voltz, I wish I can be there with you, at least I can see how can you toast 2 engines in 1 race....(I feel your pain, you need NOVA ROSSI, thats why....)

Results, pictures, race report, chassis photos, and much more will be posted on SGrid Online tomorrow. I'd do it tonight, but with about 600 photos to go through from today, I'd be up until 4am at least. I'd rather get a night's sleep and then go through it all tomorrow.

Awesome race! The club did a fantastic job, and the weather cooperated beautifully. I'm sure just about everyone is going home pleased with the race, even if they didn't do as well as they had hoped.

There will be a full race report with more photos in an upcoming issue of RC Car Magazine - watch for it!
