I glad to see him get picked up by a good company. I met him in 2007 at crcrc. I didn't know he was at the time and we would go out side just to smoke an bs. They I looked him up in a Rc car auction magazine when I got back to the hotel... I met a lot of drivers there at that one race. Hahaha he's a great guy.

Yeah I think he will do well with serpent cars next time he is in Aussie I am going to make plans to go to the event he is at

I moved your post to the Serpent SRX-2 thread. I figure it a better place to discuss the matter.
