Thomas said it barely rained at the Nitro Farm. So the sprinklers will be running tonight.

I should be there.

I think just Mike Wenzel and Tim McNamara actually understood how the races were run. Some kids kept asking when the mains were going to be run, and long were they going to be.

Turn out was 16 total, 13 8th scale buggies. No J. Getz, Shane *unt or Jamie Le Dude, they had other things going. Also no Wolkenheim, so many regulars were not there.

Tim was the fast man in every race he was in. Stick to 1/10th Tim.

Thomas said "First and Last Annual Enduro..". Everybody did get a lot of track time.

Remember the BIG Summer Showdown trophy race is in two week, on August 21st.

There will be a warm up race August 14th. Bring a walkman if you have one, we may be broadcasting over FM instead of using the PA system.

A really nice kid from Madison named Czech won the A main Saturday. Everybody had a lot of fun, the track was dialed.

On my Buggy I use Panther Komoto Dragon's. Some people use Crime Fighters.

Not sure about on a truck, Jesse can help you with that.

For truck step pins are the way to go either proline or Losi. I use losi silver and sometimes reds. A set of silvers will last 2 race days and the reds will go 1. As for fronts the holeshots work but at times they load up way to much. The proline edge works very well. I used edge m2's until I tried edge r3's they give loads of steering on the gt.

Lance uses red ifmar pins and for him they work great but I don't like them all that much, for the most part we turn the same lap times with different tires. The nitrofarm is very tire forgiving you can get almost anything to work. I have a set of snakeyes but I have not tried them yet I think the farm is a little to loose of a surface for them but they may work.
