Not a bad idea for the Sig art 
I cleaned up some stuff at the track (back corner area of all the tire dust) and re-spaced the tables back to even spacing.
I also removed the dog walk sign from our front window that was for May 7th 2011.
Productive night and I even got two bodies all finished up, and put down a few more low 8.2 laps with the 13.5 boosted. Lots of problems with the magentas going off at the 5 -6 minute mark still.

Awesome, man, thanks for giving the place some TLC. Glad Jim was able to save you!

I have no idea how you would lock yourself out of the track. You kinda need the key to lock yourself out. That's quite a drive for Jim if he was at home

Joe was painting bodies out back and the door closed from the wind, locking him outside. He has edited all of his posts in shame, but I ain't afraid of saying what happened.

Pesky wind. Just 'cause you can't see it doesn't mean it ain't there!

Yeh that weird lock on the rear doors to the building are made to auto-lock if they are closed hard... I was holding the door open and a gust of wind came and slammed it closed, and next thing I heard was the locking bar click on the inside, and thats all she wrote. So... if you go out to take out the garbage or something just be aware that can happen and have your keys with you.
Yeh Jim is getting a few rounds from me the next few times we go out to Applebee's

How badly would an RC10L3 Oval do in WGT? I know it is mostly the driver so just wondering if anyone has thoughts. This is assuming I would be able to run it in WGT.
I am trying to get back into RC on a budget. I have a TC3 that runs but I was always able to dial in the oval car so much easier. The only problem I see is weight distribution with the batts on one side. Get a lipo saddle pack?
Just thinking out loud here...
