Rafael is a cool guy. He drove me to RPM Speedway (the place is huge), and to the airport. His wife is super nice and friendly. She is british I believe, so she has a cute accent too.

They just bought a house 5 minutes from the Ramada, so his home track doesn't even exist 51 weeks out of the year.

thanx shane, are you telling my the oval car only made it half way into the pool? Did he regear to make the jump, or was he only gear to go 30 mph? He shoulda asked around for a junk 10 turn, gear it as close to a 1:1 as possible, and get a big runway. I could made it farther, and hey, thats like the lightest car there(well, cept for 12th).

That was his Snowbirds hotel room... I'm sure he has a better chair at home.

Mine might make you cringe too, only this is my dorm...

hey, i'll save shane the post, even though he'll do it anyways. Do advertise, you don't pay(i think), and you've posted here, on the main forum, and if your not paying, you gotta stop, its not fair to the other companies. I hope i got it right shane.

Is that a ROCKING chair?

I'm gonna have nightmares for weeks..........

Sorry to do this to everyone in this forum. Just keep checking for more S-bird pictures. Yep, that was Matt F in one and we can hardly wait for him to get safely back to Northern California for more carpet racing.

Bill - It doesnt "rock," but it leans back, kinda of two settings I guess you could call it. Ergo sucks, I usually have a foot on the woofer next to the TV, or on the TV stand.

I should have cleaned the desk before the picture.
