and now we just have to influence the weather to keep the rain away.

If it isn't raining, Mark and I will be there.

Cool, been wanted to run that 12th a bit more.

Al you should see what i did to that touring car i just built...ripped the whole rear end off of it, i would say it had to be doing around 60 to 65 when i hit the dang pipe...LOL

Imagine the rpm of a 7 turn, but pushing the gearing of a 19 turn...Mamba

Cool!!.............. 2 people so far for 1/12 Scale. C'mon Guys, use the indoor set-up as a starting point. Should work nice.

...........BTW Mike, were you running foams or rubber tires before you tried to jump to light-speed?? ................

................... See you soon Bro!

Mike was probably as fast as any nitro touring car. And I mean straight line speed, not just getting around the track quicker.

And if you guys feel like doing a double this weekend, the Floyd Bennett Field track has a trophy race on Sunday, and there is a class for electric. Just bring a really big pinion gear!

Exactly. I look forward to racing with Mike. He is a helluva wheel. That will only make me better.
