I wish my job had different hours so I could run so races with you guys.

I am wandering why do some people not what gas to run with there electric cars at the royal palm track? I thought the set up favored electric cars. Remeber I am a rookie so please take that into consideration with this question.

Nitro is usually faster even though the track is technical, does favor the electrics somewhat. I run a 13.5 now, so my speed and power is nowhere near a nitro car. It seems at times the nitro guys (I ran em too) can keep fueling up and going at times its 2:1, or even 3:1 nitro cars going to 1 electric. Its not bad, usually when 1 electric guy goes out somemore will follow, and eventually through ESP the switch off occurs till the batts run dry.

I am sorry I missed last Saturday, prior plans (jetskiing in lake placid).

I would like to practice this Saturday or Sunday, but if no one else (Electric Touring) is going, I will skip it, I do have to work in the a.m. anyway.

I will be running at the FnF Race on the 7th and your race on the 28th.

I think we will setup a grid for the 19t race on the inside chute going into the carousel.... This should help the starts be alittle more clean... at least more peel free....
