Thanks, It took me most of the weekend to figure the track out and get my buggy setup correct for it. I qualified 8th and got in some trouble in the beginning of the race so I was close to a half of a lap behind the leader. I finally cought the 1st place car with about 1 minute to go and then choked and put my buggy in the pipe so never got to battle him for the win.

Friggin Fantastic for my first Big Show. I did horrible though. Stupid mistakes like not charging my receiver pack for the first qual. Bad tire choices and I don't understand setup that well. Next time I will though. I had some carb problems Sat and should have tore it down to give it a look see. I started flaming in the main towards the end. I tore it down last night and my idle screw was broken in two, not sure how that happens, but it did.
I learned that big events really aren't into watering the track throughout the day and I was unable to adjust to the conditions. There was a decent blue groove laid down but it was like a 1.5 to 2 ft lane and if you got out of it you were all over the place. I also learned that there are some super fast guys that run Inter/Sportsman...
Biggest thing that kicked my rear were nerves. I do it at Karns too. Once I feel like I need to push I end up screwing everything up.
I would like to thank Keith for hauling me around and talking me down from taking 4 gallons of fuel down there. Hehehehe, I only used half a gallon. I would also like to thank Brittani at Applebee's for absolutely twisting my mind. Wow, she will be etched in my permanent memory forever....(long story).
I will be back.

There is a really great video of the last Pro 1/8 buggy qual on Ryan Lutz's web site if any one wants to see it. Really shows off the track.
