The TC main was good just had some mistakes that irritated me which lead to pulling the car. Short course was going good but had 1 big corner short and a marshal staring off into space that lead to second.

Kyle was the outstanding performer this weekend. He drove very well, was fast, and in many instances was lucky in lap traffic. TQ'd 12th and TC, 1st in 12th and TC, 2nd on Buggy.

Ryan had some of the worse luck I've seen with lap traffic, not from his driving but from others on the tack. Kyle and him would have had a killer A main if it was not for the huge varying skill level in 12th scale.

Sam dominated in Buggy, that Losi was tearing up the carpet.

I think everyone had a great time. The mall scene was kind of cool, if our track was more portable it would be awesome to have our race at a venue like this. Although many said the car show venue in the past was even better.

Kudos to Ryan's mom, great lady and wonderful host. Went above and beyond what she should have.
Also, due to Jim and Ryan having bad luck in 12th scale main. I put in a solid 3rd place run.

So, if a guy were to get a tax return and use said tax return to buy a 1/12th scale, what 1/12th scale should that guy buy?

Popular options for the COR track seem to be CRC, Top, v-design, speed merchant, and CEFX.

Just asking.

I know a guy with a crc gen-xl and a lot of spares he would sell you for an awesome price.

Hint: the guy is me.

New without breaking the bank though? TOP or CRC.

I have a LTE WiFi access point I would be OK leting the track use it for MHIC if we lack any other internet connection. It's pretty fast, not sure how fast at that location, but I know down town I have gotten 14Mb/down and 5Mb/up.

I wont be at the track this weekend at all (eplex or corrc), I have to get some parts shipped off from my motorcycle this weekend, so Sunday I get to spend the day tearing it apart. Should be around on Thursday.
