Does anyone have extra battery hold bar from a m-04 or m-03. The one that comes on the m-05 doesnt work with my orion lipos so ya. Its that little l shaped piece that holds the battery in. Much appreciated

Hey guys, thanks again for another great night. The action was hot, and the King had his throne yanked out from under him. I know Ivan's going to come back more determined than ever to regain his crown.
The Mini A main was an absolute blast. I actually got to hold on to second place for a while! I'm going to be gunning for all you guys.
Thanks to everyone that stuck around for teardown. The crowd gets pretty thin by the end of the evening and those who stay are deserving of our gratitude.
Speaking of sticking around, there are some that don't. Everyone, especially those in the A main, know that it's a lot of work to set up and tear down a track each race day. We race together, we should tear down together. This counts for set up as well. There are a few people that show up late and leave as soon as the action has finished. Not cool.
I know that sometimes we're in a rush to get somewhere, but please support your fellow racers and participate. With a solid group of people tear down can be done in 10-15 minutes.
Thanks again everyone See you next race day.

That was definitely some good racing last night. I have two questions though, hoping someone might be able to answer 'em..
First of all, I noticed twice last night that when I was driving around, hit the brakes and came to a complete stop, the car just died. No throttle or steering, but the transponder was still blinking. All I had to do to fix this was turn it off and back on again. Never happened during a race, either. Brad suggested I try adjusting the throttle trim on my tx a little, which I did, but I forgot to ask what the reasoning was behind that. Do you guys think it's a problem with my esc or my rx?
And secondly, I forgot to write down the brand name of the lipo batteries Jeremy sells. Was hoping someone knew.
Thanks guys!

Hey scott any word about my transponder I gave you a couple of weeks ago, the one not counting consistently?
Brad any chance of one of these test and tune nights that I thought we were having the first time we had the early start? I am at a loss with my mini and would like to hear from some the experienced guys like AJ Ivan and many of the others out there. I am not up to bothering anyone on a race night as I now they are there to race and not be pestered, by tons of questions.

Great night of racing guys. Hope everybody enjoyed it. Thanks for all the help with set up and tear down. Special thanks to Al Noor for all his race directing that he took on tonight - much appreciated. Personal thanks to Colin for letting me use his tire truer, it seems to really help my car running on cut down tires. Looking forward to next time for the touring and 12th scale night. Hopefully we can persuade a few more people to come out.
Have a good week.
Have a good week.

Ivan bud, its easy to see why you held the TT01 title for so long, your so damn consistent! Amazing race bud, ive been more relaxed at a big titles race, than what i was on Saturday night! Exact same fast lap, and we had 3-4 feet between us for the first 4 mins or so! No room to let up and no time to relax, it was so much fun And Ricky, amazing flag to flag win mate. The rest of us were too busy climbing over one another to get to you lol. Congrats
And sorry i couldnt make it to TC/12th day on Sunday, two cold nights in a row was enough for me, plus my mum was cooking up a storm so i couldnt miss out on the food!!

Lots of fun last night guys. Had fun battling in 1/12th. Congrats to Kevin for getting your 1/12th up to speed and running such a clean race, I think you may have only touched once in the race. Great job. Lots of fun racing with all of you.
John great to see you out doing 1/12th hopefully you get that issue straightened out with the throttle control. Here is that link to Gearchart that I promised you.
