Are you out of your mind???? Did you not see the people in those pictures? We ARE NO WHERE NEAR READY FOR THAT LUISR!!!!! Did you not see Frank K and Eric P in that line up. Man please don't let your mouth write checks that we can't cash on this side of the USA....... I know I have a big learning curve to absorb from both of those expert drivers. I myself need to learn about car set-up, driving style and race planning to mention a few. I know, I have seen them drive. They are mentoring those other drivers with a greater knowledge base than what I am trying to provide for the guys here.

I hope they come to our event and you will see what I am talking about .

Carlton,
Did you read my post??????
I said the "The WEST is the best"
They are in the West coast and we are in the East coast.
Therefore, I am saying they are best, they will win. I know exactly who they are. I cant wait to watch them turn laps at 301.

Default hey Victor

hi Victor,

Thanks for the snap shots. We always like to see pictures of 1/5 scale on road cars. LuisR is our main photograph expert and I will have him post some pictures of the racers and their car here if that is ok with you. I am doing fine so far health now and looking forward to the August event .

I am working on the flyers now and hopefully will get out as soon as i can for people to submit their entries. The cost is going to reasonable ( my personal stimulas package) not $80.00 dollars. So stay tune to more information coming

Carlton & Luis,
it's all for fun, we have a good mix of racers at this end and we all run in the same class. STC& F1, it's challenging at times but is fun and we're all friends.

BTW, I put some notes in my first post.

Victor

Nice Pics Victor!
Majority of them run your motor too
When is the next race that everyone planning for at the transit center?
Let's all plan together regardless what the size of the race is.
It was a fun day last weekend even with the conditions...
Has Glenn or anyone posted the results anywhere?

I think the next race is on the 27-28th, I sent a message to Glen asking for the results and the date for the next race.
I heard that DCM Contrast team is growing???

Keep the great pics coming Victor! Are you going to the Nats? Do you have any engines with clutches for sale that you could bring with you or ship to Baltimore?

Let me know, I drove "The Rock's" car last year in Nebraska and the power band was very impressive.

Yo Carlton, looks like the Stimulus Package is coming in so I'm good to go for the NATS.

Sweeeeeeet....
