Xlnt, Mini-Z swarm is headed that way for Sunday.
Tonight @ kenon's Friday night race there will be a scramble to get some last minutes parts and such for TQ race too, so whoever needs anything Grant's there to assist and advise.

Carlos the motor is only $20 if I remember correctly, pretty sure.

LOL..me too after the UF1 race tonight...haven't even put my car back together after Phillip fett it for me so it's all in pieces, looking forward to seeing all tomorrow.

Great EZ-Spec race session again last night, ran a quali and a main, results posted. surprised to be on pace with only 4 seconds behind leader Brian in the quali, but somehow 3 laps down in the main with 3 laps less than quali i do see a 17 second lap under my name...wonder if timing system missed a lap!

We did a count of verified mini-Z racers for tomorrows TQ race and that number is 16! That's pretty impressive, should be a fun day.

Did the track layout change from last week?
I couldn't make it yesterday. Too burnt out from work during the week. I'll try for next week. Heading to Kyosho tomorrow. I don't think the guys from work will to mod racing at TQ even the the track is bigger.

Hey greenpea, track at kenon was same as last week, but we were all about 2 tenths slower for some reason, temperature, humidity anything could've been the reason. Grant will be laying down another set of RCP track which is noticeably gripper than whats there now not sure if it'll be in a different layout but guessing probaly will.

As for the big news of the weekend, TQ race layout is as Spring71 mentioned, same as last few weeks which actually I really like. would have been cool if you guys could make it this time around but no worries, this race will be held quarterly at TQ...plenty of time to get your mod set up and practice for the upcoming ones.

See all attending tomorrow, track opens @ 9:00 and racing starts @12:00.

Mini Z at TQ rocked! I was telling everyone it was the most fun Ive had racing there. Thanks to Grant for the parts help and especially to Chad for taking time away from his own cars and helping me with mine. I couldn't believe how well these cars hooked up on the carpet. Super awesome.

Well put, racing in that setting and format was an absolute rush for me & everyone else i spoke with...hope we can get to do it again soon and often

Thanks to Grant & Sean for making this happen, looking forward to the next one.

Chris great racing and noteworthy results BTW! speaking of results, they were going to be posted now if it wasn't for me airing out the car & having the result sheets make an early exit on the I-60 Grant's got them on kenon's laptop, so no worries they'll still be posted within a week when he gets to it.
