Matt-tay and Dustin... yep...!! I gotta agree with Lars on his local racers making the 'show'.

Lars - why aren't you coming down for this one?

Too close to the NC for me to take time off, and there's a few other folks in my dept out that week. And, I did it 7 years in a row, time to venture elsewhere

wonder if thats a side effect from losi jr going to the big k

Not really. Drake only really ran electric when there was not a gas race to run anyway. With Gas racing so popular now he is fully involved with that.

Yeah I have seen Joey on that bobcat. One of the years the NC got rained on it was amazing to watch him redo half the track in about 30 min getting the thing race ready. He truely is amazing on that thing!

That should be interseting with 2wd cars. Getting the nose back down will be the trick for fast lap times. Sounds like fun!
