Why you gotta sign up as that whack MoDrEaMeR crap Kyle ^ ^.

The track came out all right, not without the usual drama though. I think it should be pretty fun, there are alot of doubles, and a couple flat sections. There are more jumps on the left side that the right, usually works that way since we start on the left and people get tired/leave as the day goes on. By the drivers stand there is a double-small straight into a burm and into a quad (mod) or a double double (stock). Frank handpacked one of the jumps and it looked pretty good. Shouldn't have any problems making any of the jumps in stock, especially if you go wide. Unless you order off the kid's menu.


edit: Todd got what? 3rd in the A. Slim was seeing if Ryan James could lap the whole field. Would have needed 7 minutes to do it probably. I did bad, didn't even make the A :/.

The days of Ryan lapping me are pretty much over...he is a second and a half faster than me a lap though and it does add up...the thing is he was off for 2 MONTHS and still layed it down.

I've been having problems with my truck lately as you can see that I was second the whole race and started getting loose and lost 2 secs a lap when Gio caught up and passed clean...well it's hard not to pass someone clean when they are on their lids...hurting!!! Driving mod buggy is helping me in stock though...slowly but surely...

Can't wait to see the new track!!

Johnny...ya gotta start paying more attention to your car maintanence...your stuff looks like you got it from Sanford and Son.

Same pipes, reverse direction,

Down the straight, right turn about 110-115degs, little double, landing into 180 left, then flat to 180 right, a little right kink then a 90 right, double about 4-5 long, stock may need to go a foot wide to clear, kink right, 180, kind left, right 90, double 4 feet should clear, then flat to a big burn 180 right, then a double-double stock/quad mod, then 90 left roller, 90 left, 90 left scissor jumps, 90 right, double, 180 sweeper on to straight.

Looked good.

So same pipes but backwards! I wish I could get to the track to run that layout! Not sure I will get there to run before the JBRL this weekend.
