TC Brushless Stock next year pleeeeeeeeze. I don't care if the BL motors are handouts that we give back and draw for after every run. Probably would require us to limit gearing somehow so no one overgears their one run motor.

I also wanted to give a special thanks to Jamie Tennies for his track setup work and teching during the event. Previously included him as the "team"; but, he is obviously a special person. Thanks Jaime.

I like that parts monster, I'll have to make one. I knew there was a reason I kept a bag of all my broken parts over the years!

Greatings and Salutations all.

Well what a week. From the set up to tear down all I can say is WOW. In my eyes, this was the best IIC yet. Before I can go on and say thanks to all of the racers and sponsors, I must first echo Boomers words and say thanks to our team. Without them the IIC would not happen.

Boomer,Jamie,Doug,Pete,David,Chez,Showtime,Andy and of course Charlie, and our mate from down under Luc. Also to my gang back at Trackside who held down the fort so we could take this show on the road. Kenny, Buck, Mikey, Joe, Corey, Danny, Mike, Dave and Snowy.

Also to Shane,Jason,Jake and Judy from Amp Draw for a wonderful supply of parts and supplies. Best stocked shop to date guys, Thanks. Also to Shane and his crew for all the hard work on the internet stuff. Again thanks.

I have a great time putting on this event with my great team and I think everyone had a wonderful time. The racing was great and the facility was again top notch.

I know everyone enjoyed the new schedule. Getting out before 8pm on practice nights and by 9 on race nights was great. We rapped up the final main around 3:15pm. That was awsome.

Boomer thanked all of our sponsors but I again want to thank them for all they contribute. Especailly Jack Rimer from Jaco. No matter what brand of tires or batteires you choose to use. If you enjoyed being part of the IIC or watching it live online, A big thanks goes out to him for his support since the beginning.

Each year we learn more and more about putting on this size of an event and we strive to make it the best we can. We have some more ideas for next year and look forward to making the 2008 IIC even better.

Thanks goes out the our international drivers who traveled such great distances to join us for the event. This year we had drivers from 16 different countries travel to the IIC. We hope you all had a wonderful time and that you will be able to join us again.

Also want to thank the magazines for sending their guys to cover the IIC.
Xtreme, RC Car, RC Driver and RC Car Action. Look for coverage of the event soon.

One repeat thanks goes out to Boomer for all his help. He is a big help and helps put this whole thing together. Thanks Bro.

Well enough of the thanks.

It was some great racing. Tons of action. Great times. Great battles, Great crashes and Great times had by all.

Only 360 some days untill 2008 IIC, Entire go online in May. Cant wait to do it again.

Thanks everyone for another great year.
Scotty

I love the internet

I was robbed for sure. I was on a tq pace each round, but then Scotty distracted me by starting the heat. At least my car LOOKED fast on the starting grid. I really thought it was unfair too how those boards seemed to only hit ME.
