Hey people this is Paco, just wanted to post these 2 videos for u folks to check out. This is of the rc18r races i filmed at san marcos on 1/03/09..

Since im a new member, rctech wount let me submit url links yet. so you folks have to add the www and the youtube dot com to the link before hand manually, after you add that just copy and past this to it:

/watch?v=HOGfs-3e5Zc <----- Video 1 final heat rc18r


/watch?v=9X6zBbctQG4 <------- Video 2 is of the second heat for 18r class

My camera broke this last sunday so i was unable to get film of the races. The camera is mostly always on my car but if you were close to the lead ; ) you should catch some footage of yourself on film.

Enjoy...

Default Thanks PACO BELL!!

There are the links. Good videos, especially the second one where I dominated from wire to wire.

Paco- do you have the original audio for the first video? I would like to hear how I sound announcing the race so I can hone my skills for the next time

Goes without saying that Team Viking RC's race tomorrow will be postponed due to rain. Milli Vanilli said it best... "Blame it on the rain"

Default Personally....

I personally prefer the WHO's Reign O'vr me!

Will there be races next weekend? I like the closeness of the new track we were supposed to race at today! Is there a possibility that the availability of this new track will confict with the DHW race schedule?

Also, what's the chance of having a local scoring/ points rating system ? Im not too computer savy so to me... sounds like it might be a pita! But, that's just me. BTW....RP30 tires worked awesome last weekend. Tried a set of rp36's for 1 heat and lost traction quite a bit. I think having cooler tires made a big difference for me out there.

Great program guys! I truely appreciate your efforts! Vinny

There will be no conflict with the DHW schedule, that is our only chance to race. Sometimes AJ and I can alternate heats while we are running the race, but it is still better to race each other and that is what we do at DHW.

We are working on putting together an SD circuit with points, probably start in the spring when the weather gets better.

You rock Joe! Let us know...I am waiting to try out my new Cyclone S. I was planning to go to DHW, but it was raining up by me in the morning and I figured there would be no racing...but of course I was wrong. It's a good thing that I am not a weather man!

By the way, what are some good tires to run on parking lot tracks this time of year? Also, what about the summer months? Thanks guys, I just want to stock up on some supplies and tires.
