Tag,

Thanks for all the HP and info yesterday. Brought home an Express TQ and Win in 13.5 sedan, qualified 2nd in T/A and won. Heard some feedback from other racers that bought and tried your 13.5 that typically run other companies' motors, and every one of them said it was money well spent. The most power they've ever had.

Good Job

Thanks for all the Express horsepower for this weekend! The 17.5 motor was absolutely screaming in the Sedan class. Most people were asking if I was running a 13.5 in the car. Unfortunatly, bad luck caught the better of me, and I got punted into no man's land on the first lap of the main. After that, I drove the wheels off the car to come back up to 3rd by the 4th minute of the race. Unfortunatly, as I made the pass for third, the person I was passing drove a little too deep into the corner and gave my car a massive body tuck that killed the speed. I managed to hold it steady and take home 3rd.

Anyone who wasn't there missed a great day.

Today I ran my T/A and 1/12th.

We got rained out, but I was sitting T/Q in T/A and 3rd or 4th in 1/12. Everyone was running brushless and I had some "Big Sack" edition cells and a 19T I "massaged" LOL! I was only one tenth off the guys that run 1/12th every weekend. The Corally 12X was darn good for its 1st outing. I'm starting to like 1/12th

Tag, look for some order from Hawaii, they will be coming to you this time. I leave for a deployment in 4 weeks.

Mike

Also, Just wanted to wish Brandon Melton the best of luck this week at The World Championship's for 1/8 Nitro Off Road in Charlotte NC. Brandon was on a killer practice run today that would have put him in the top 15 before he pulled trackside with 30 seconds remaining on the race clock. Good Luck Brandon,I'll see ya during the week......

Thanks Tag, the run was almost bobble free, car wasn't the fastest on the clock, but I just tried to learn the new sections without putting it on my lid, lol.

They were being pretty strict about not running the "extra" lap, so I didn't get to go all the way back around, I hit the loop late and they call you in at the 10 minute mark and you have to pull in that time, oh well. See ya there.

Win loose or draw, it's just awesome to be there, you won't recognize the place, it's crazy.
