I'm moving to Hawaii August 2nd after a few years racing offroad in Tennessee. Looking forward to continuing my hobby career!
Hey Tim,

For VTA we have guys running all different brands from top photons to spec r so cars. My suggestion is when you get here stop by the track and have a look at what everyone else is running and go from there. As far as parts support Apex RC Proshop can get you anything you want.

Glad you could make it and had a good time. Found out your car is a Kyosho TF-5S. You can download the manual from www.kyosho.com

glad to meet you and your daughter. Reminded me of when I was a kid and my pop's taking me out to all the tracks in the island to try and race.
remember you don't don't have to get all the tech you saw to have fun! keep it simple and within budget hope to see you to again in the future!

I think Roy had so much fun in VTA that's what he is going to run from now on.

Anyway, another fun day at RWH. Great racing in all the classes. Looking forward to the next one.

VTA is getting funner. Imagine if Quark and RSKoncepts had shown up. Huge field. Lots of fun. Thanks to Bert as usual for running things on time. Thanks to Danny for providing beverages on such a HOT day. Thanks to Wes for picking up the drinks. Looking forward to next race day.

I would start with 30 or 35 weight in the shock...and probably 50 or 60 in the damper shock and see how they feel.

We should be out there next outing. Had our drag racing commitment because of a weather related change of date.

Is August 8th a RWH race day? If so, what classes are bing ran that day? A fellow R/Cr flying in from Vegas and was thinking of racing with you all if he has a ride that meets any of the classes.

Also, if VTA is being ran that day and We do make it out, will it be possible for me to run my TA ride with the silver can?

It should be a regular race Sunday, the 10thlol. Anybody we know that's coming from Vegas? Could it be Winston?

Run you're VTA. I just started last week, it was really fun.
