Hoping to make it this Sunday. Bringing VTA, 17.5, and TT01. Mini is out of commission at the moment. If anyone wants to sell an M05 let me know ASAP. Started converting my M03 to an M05 (not a version 2), and it's turning into a nightmare.

Would love to get one, but can't do it right now.

If anyone has on older M05 they want to part with, keep me in mind.

Per the Jackson forum, the track is being dried now! Pack up and let's go racing! I'm bringing TT01, Mini, VTA, and 17.5 touring. See you there!

Had a great day racing at Jackson today! Was able to run three classes! Mini, 25.5 running as VTA, and 17.5 running as Tamiya GT2. Also Carol ran TT01 after 15 years away from racing! We all had a great time! A little rain delay didn't dampen our good time! Lol! Thanks Al for having such a great place to race.

Mini Madness is coming!

After last night I can't hear anything.

BTW when's the next beach race?

John said the next race won't be until mid-end of August.

Does anyone know if the M05 and M03 use the same rear swaybars? Took them out of the 03 and the front worked fine but the rear doesn't fit across the 05 chassis. Looks like the same item # according to Tamiya. What am I doing wrong?

May go to RCCW Sunday to run 17.5, mini, and VTA.

Thanks, John. For those who care, the rear M03 and M05 swaybars are different. The fronts might be different for all I know, but the one from my M03 fit the M05 perfectly.

Ford and VTA fans: Check out these cool "VTA" cars that ran at the Brickyard (Indy) recently. I love 60's and 70's race cars!
