Default On-road info?

Curious on the on-road side when the Fall points series is expected to start. I'm getting the list ready and am looking forward to doing some foam stock/mod racing in preparation for the USTC races this year. Also, when will the "Fall" drivers meeting be held as well?

Later,
G

I just got home from... home. Didn't go to the track, decided to work on my car for once. I even tried painting a nice body, but got mad at my airbrush and made it one color.

Did you throw it down the driveway? That what I do when a power tool doesn't work right.

nahh, didn't do that. Just threw it on the garage floor, grabbed a can of red spray paint, and made er red. I did put some silver window trim on with the airbrush. The tip keeps plugging up. I've tried thinning the paint, using more/less psi, more/less paint flow... it's good for about 30 seconds, then there's barely any spray. Maybe I just figured out why it was only $30.

JeffC, check out this forum for some airbrush tips- http://www.hobbytalk.com/bbs1/showth...threadid=11322

I have trouble with faskolor clogging up my tips as well. When I painted my B3 buggy, I didn't water down the paints but I did put almost full pressure from the pump. It sprays out like a bastard and I got decent results- I just had to be extra cautious when getting in closer to do edge shadows- and since I was using so much pressure I couldn't get them very thin, but it turned out ok and I didn't have to mess with the airbrush as much as I did the first time I tried painting with less pressure. . . It's still a pain though
