Anyone have any good pics of previous racing at the track I am looking for some Good pic's rcbum
I hope to be off the Saturday of the inaugural race, Keith. But since my boss here at Wings and Wheels is a corporate pilot who's on call 24/7, it's possible that I could be stuck at work.

But if I do get the day off, I will bring my cameras and get some good still photos and movies of the track and racing action.

A.King, it was great meeting you and glad you had fun racing! That is good bit of a drive from Pineville but glad you made the trip. Your Slash looked great on both of the tracks and those proline shocks are a good improvement over the stock ones. There are more racers that have not showed up over the last month and a half or so, hope that we could see them back plus get the word out to everyone that there is some excellent r/c toy car racing going on here at T&T raceway in Shreveport LA.
Have fun and Race R/C!!

Just an FYI about the proline shocks, if you have any problems with the rod ends popping off the pivot balls, email customer support and they will mail you a free rebuild kit with the updated rod ends.

I actually took a washer and put on the outside of mine. And last time I rebuilt my shocks I used the shock ends and caps off of a set of REVO shocks. perfect mounting and set-up...

I just wanted to comment on the situation of Puddin not being allowed to race at T&T Raceway. I have known Puddin for several years now, since he moved back home. I am also familiar with incident where he supposedly threw some flyers of another track into the trash. He told me when this came up he didn't do it, he has no reason to lie to me. If you really knew his character this would not even be an issue. Puddin is well know and respected in the r/c community, from pros to manufactures, I have traveled with him and have seen it. He would have been a great asset for your track, just ask the people he has helped with national races. Just a couple of weeks ago at the pro series finals, he spoke what a good job you were doing at this track and that I should get back involved, yea right. This incident really upsets him because I know he cares. And to the people who say he made his bed and "te he he he's" when he ask about racing, I can see where you would be concerned, be cause you would be getting LAPPED. Nobody asked me to do this, but someone needed to say the truth, got a problem with it call me.

First of all James it was the fliers to the track that myself and a friend owned. Also I guess I am the only racer thathas had the courage to step up and say anything. As far as his character...Ok let's go there. WHEN he ran Hobbies X-Treme you would go in there and you would be waiting for awhile before he would even acknowledge you were there. Also back to the track thing, Ron Cunningham went in there several times and said something about the track over here and he said..."There's a track in Hallsville?" Along with other things...Let's talk about his conduct...hmmm...I remember hearing about some ranting and raveing going on at the pro finals? And the LAST race that was held at the now closed Hobbies X-Treme track I was standing right next to him on the drivers stand driving as he would scream out several times..."NITRO POWERED BULL BALLS" so this is good character? Man I would hate to see what you would consider bad then. Next....how about the rumor that he started about a racer named Josh Glancy..I mean I can go on and on about events and issues...If the crew at TandT wants to let him race by all means let him. But I can assure with in a few months the T and T track will suffer the same fate as Hobbies X-treme. And I am not saying he is the lone party involved with the closeing of the track...but he was a factor. After talking to my wife and a couple other people I look up to in my life I have come to the conclusion the Matt "Puddin" Sistrunk is not worth renting space in my head. Everyone knows his character and if not they will learn.

That's all I have to say on this subject....Like I said if the crew at T and T want to let him run there...that's fine...but all I can say is remember Hobbies X-Treme both store and Track.

Just wanted to put my 2 cents into this topic. I had issue with said person after my first experience with him almost a year ago at previous stated hobby shop. But as time has past I have realized that it is just a personality that is extreme from the norm and actually have no issue with said person. I would really enjoy the skill level that he would bring to the track. My vote would be for him to run at T&T.
