I am glad that Christmas is gone .....I had a great time at the track ...started a petition to get the name of our track mentioned on CNN news channel. We are officially naming our track "Strange Place".T-Shirts will be ready at our next race which will be pneumatically compensated.We have all decided to not permit any pit tables being set up in the track.Rv's are welcome but no dumping your sewage unless you are completely full.Fireworks are still permitted as well as dogs and wives. There will no longer be any stroller racing with new borns ..... they must be at least 6 months but less than 11 years old.Alcoholic beverages are allowed , but there will be no sales of fire arms or pit bull fighting. If your gonna race you better get yourself a stage name.

Y'all smokin' green motors, I'm smoking green cars. Just when I got my set-up absolutly perfect my car decides to fold in two and smash the clutch bell into the chassis.

Damage: Motor mount, clutch bell, bearings, RB WS7III block, rear chassis brace, diff case.

Think I'll be down for a while....grrrr.

I buried the parts in the quad as a sacrifice to the TRC gods. Then ran around the track chanting: ohhhhhhmmmmmmm ye rike ye yay, ohhhm rike eee aaa ohhhhhmmmmmm, while hiting myself in the head with a Hudy setup board.

That should improve my luck.

It happened when I dodged that stupid squirrel and crashed into " Hippie mans" titanium leg. It really freaked out the people watching. 'Tis not safe to sit in middle of RC track and read book!

It took a lap or two for the car to finally fall apart. Hey it tries, its just too old.

Yeah I smoked another GRP. Horizon is telling people to adjust the screws the opposite of what it should be.

Somebody left /abandoned a Buick Skylark at the track this evening.I saw the flatbed truck leaving when I was pulling in. Someone took the wheels and tires off and popped the vin#. What the heck???? The stereo was still playing on a country station and the seat was really comfy ,I found some mail under the seat and it was addressed to Sherlock Holmes.

I am not the messiah.I am only a track bozo.Wine is fine ,but whiskey is quicker, suicide is slow and better, take a bottle ,drown your sorrows. A compass will go crazy at our track. I can see clearly now, the rain has gone.The car was dumped IN the track.... bastards! I'll pull the thing out if someone will pull the boards ...or move the pipes.

Ok now youve smoked too much!

I'm going to bury my entire Rc8 in the track to excorcise this voodoo luck I've got. I can imagine the look on "HVAC's" face when some kid pulls it out of the ground 14 years from now.

GRP ran good today. Dr. Viagra King was at the track playing the radio. Yeah and Grouchy had his new fangled custom built steel toed Crocs on.The Regulator suffered a broken toe??Lumberjack got to run the Fleetwood and actually complained about the brake pedal being too wide. Well I did loosen the ABS pulsatory nodule a little bit , but not enough to make him get car sick at the drivers stand.Trust me after Trigger got through with the Fleetwood it needed some Tag body spray.Soup Nazi was out there playing the banjo for tip money, he's getting really good at it but he needs to stick to the rc8 if he ever expects to win at the local level.Hammer???? What happened??????I have requested a new television for the track, 60" flat panel LCD... BTW I did pay the cable bill for December so don't worry about it getting turned off.

I am going to hide something at our track that has value and anyone that finds it can have it. It will be worth looking for.....TRUST ME. No questions ,I only ask if you find it that you post on here what it was. I promise it will be worth it.

Holy dead thread revival batman!!!!11!!!!1


Did you bury some old sport works tires in an AKa bag?

The fleetwood needs a tune up. Don't know why your AKA I-beams work as well as they do. Seems you got good steer even when that track is slippery. I Can't wait to try Gridirons. You seriously need to try the worlds setup from AE. I still am touchy on tuning GRP's. Grouchies scared to.

I don't want to be trigger any more. Going to half to wait till I do something stupid thats name worthy I guess. Can I be "Mr. Joshua". I be putting mercury switches and stuff on your car.

I bet that "Naked Savage" has a broken toe. That hit hurt. I heard a crunch.

That guy that hit him can't drive too swell yet.
Remember when we were rookies. Maybe I can make the b-main at the worlds like u one day.

I put a shiney Nickel in each of "Soupys" tires when he wasn't looking. Thats why he had to re-glue. That should throw his balence off some. He was talking about how if you take care of your V-reck that it'll last 10 gallons. But then his block cracked. Maybe I'll try Novus rossso or something.

"Princess monster truck" had fun running "D-mans" X-ray. He says he's going to get a Caster Lightning so he can race buggy now too. Every time we see him we have to ask if he brought his buggy.

At least they towed that Buick away.
