Thanks Dan. You kept me honest for a good part of that main. No mistakes! LOL.

And ya, I know your "practice" car was up to snuff. Heck, my car has seen better days too after running all summer on it. You could probably cut yourself on the back of the chassis with how thin it is from wear.

I might be with you on taking this week off. Depends on what I feel like doing. It's Rupp's turn to drive.

The tt class has legs and should be very popular. Get together and take a trip to bumps, 4 makes a class I think. I get home about 8 pm after dropping my bitches off Chris runs at very tight program. If you want to hone your 1/8 Nitro buggy skills Hit Bumps when the big dogs run. I learned alot watching the best guys in rc rock bumps! Or bring a short course truck and get spanked by the bumps boys.

No problem. Yeah driving sucked as going up Reeser Summit was an adventure as one FedEx truck screwed everyone up!!!!!!!!!!!! I saw more bone heads out driving tonight than I care to remember. People driving in the middle of lanes screwing everyone up or driving at 2mph. You wonder if people ever driven in snow before. If they suck this bad in an area that can get snow imagine what its like for people that see snow once every 10 years. OMG it would be scary.

Brian, I have to comment on this...

Chris really has something special with Bumps. This winter is my first time running there as there's no where else to run 8th scale nitro and he lets us fill that place with exhaust. The turnouts every week, that I've been there, have been great and when he told me what kind of normal crowd they get for oval... my lord.

Keep up the great work guys.

Keith You're right that wasn't my only problem!


Brian I went back roads to 83 and that was a nightmare! I couldn't believe the amount of drivers on the road that appeared to have never driven in snow!

Too many close calls I'm just glad I didn't see any accidents!

Mike C I have your Airtronics M11 cover. Its back at my pit area. See you Sunday.

Schreff Bumps is pretty wild sometimes. I know Chris and the staff try hard to make it a fun place and to run a good show. Most of us know what to do so it makes it a little easier for Chris to take care of some things knowing the staff can cover the other areas.

The racers also help in making the place fun and the help to keep the show moving. Everyone from staff to racers working together make up the whole package. You need great racers and great staff to pull of what Chris does and its awesome he has has both.

SPN I saw two wrecks on the way home and just some plain dumba$$ driving as well. I know why accidents happen.
