If you race with Myron you'll never be the last person on the stand, that honor always goes to Myron.

If Brian Busse is running the same car that he did last weekend at Bush River Raceway (and I'll bet he is), it's a Losi that's 10 years old or more that he borrowed from a friend.

@Kevin,
He was saying this past Sunday that he doesn't have to wrench and that he's not accustomed to just driving.

I think Ehrlich was running a Wildfire. D06. And said that a team mate was doing better with a ghost. In VTA.

I hated to see Myron break 3min into the race. His finish would have been much better, managed to set 3rd quickest lap of the group in the time he had tho.

There should be no argument over which body is best for VTA racing now. Anybody see the body that was on the winning car at the Snowbirds?
