Default sponger: regarding Tape editing/cutting/copying

I work with a firm that can duplicate, cut, trim or anything else you would like done to the tape and burn it to a CD/DVD if you want. Get my number from Fred and give me a call, we can discus and come up with a game plan if you have no other resources to get it down. DON'T SPEND THE MONEY ON SOFTWARE, IT WILL TAKE YOU ANOTHER 3WKS TO LEARN HOW TO WORK THE SOFTWARE, BELIEVE ME!

Thanks Fantastic Fred in his Lucky Irish Stone House!

I totally agree with RBF (Dave) about Scotty. His announcing was so exciting that I just had to slow down on my last lap to watch the battle between Dave and Tom...spectacular! Then when I saw Dave get across the line for one more lap, I had to bust a move lol.

Also, I'd like to give props to the trophy girl. For those who don't know who she is, she helps her bf out when he's racing with setting up his car and cutting his motors! I wish I had a mechanic like that. She's in it to win it

We all need mechanics like her. I must admit, it's difficult to work on the car with her nearby.

Scotty is one of the greatest if not the greatest when it comes to announcing. For those of us that race at his facility in Milwaukee we are definately spoiled. I would definately recommend to everyone to attend at least 1 race at his facility, you will not be disappointed.

I just watched the race Yokomo put on the web and all I can say is awesome!

JasonC - As far as I know, most if not all of the glitching issues people were having occurred on 75 band - at least the unexplained ones!! I ran 3 all week long and never had a single radio hit for the weekend...


It was good to put a face with some of the names on here!!


Congrats to all!

Chris Wilde

Were you running one of the Reedy Spec's? A LOT of people are having problems with those motors I've been practicing with Chameleons with no problems but as soon as I put this motor in my car I had crazy throttle pulses until I cut my brushes down which probably hurt my performance some but atleast the glitching went away. Some guys gave up and just spectated the whole weekend

(not trying to hijack the thread, but) I'm proud to say that Scotty enthusiastically agreed to run the races for the HPI Challenge World Finals in Vegas later this year, it should be well-organized and much fun for all the racers coming from overseas and around the country. After he ran a regional Challenge race for us at his old Hobbytown location and seeing him in action at the Reedy Race last year I knew it was a natural choice to have him do the honors for us once again.

Muy muy kudos to Scotty for all the announcing, barely even taking a break to let Fred announce!

Actually, the BIG question is... if it does come out before the HPI
Worlds, will it be legal to race it?

Hi guys. Greetings from Malta.

There are lots of fabulous photos of various people at the Reedy race in the Yokomo USA site gallery.

Would somebody be kind enough to give us names of the racers in the photos.

Living on the other side of the globe we rarely get to see alot of these guys so apart from the Bakers, Spashetts and Masamis the rest are just faces.

So if someone would just jot them down, say left to right in the order they appear in each photo, I would be most grateful.

I recognise a few guys like Tyree Phillips from Novak for I met him at the Worlds some years ago, but for example I connect frequently with MO on the Yokomo SD thread and would love to put a face to him.

Thanks in advance.

Regards

Joe from sunny Malta.
