and the intech will take a ton more abuse then the x-ray, and as far as wear goes I don't think anyone on the team as of yet has had any premature wear issues on there kits right now. I know that on the kit I have I borrowed it and it had 4 gallons on it and everything was still snug and no slack anywhere and the driver I got it from is known for being a little hard on kits...

Texas Off road shootout
Guys sorry for the delay on this.
Friday Practice
My dad and I arrived just before lunch, of course he had to stop and feed me...
I had to finish breaking in my Alpha A872, so I just went are at meduim pace.. Evo felt really good.. basically had my normal set up.
I used Intech BA1-MS tires, they kinda look like a crime fighter, but the side lugs dont caught the ruts
They felt really good, let some of my team mates try them out.
Normally I run 553 in my diffs but decided to go dont to 443,the buggy had so much acerleratoin I wanted to tone it down.
Felt pretty good , had fun practicing with Ryan Lutz... he is so fast!!
Saturday Qualifers
1st qualifer went well 6 overall in Pro buggy
Decided to shorten camber links ( buggy had too much side bite)
2nd qualifer was better.
Camber link change helped, was 2nd to Ryan in that one.
Feeling really good now, so for the 3Rd qualifer decided to go up front diff to 5k, and gridirons.
3rd round 5k up front felt great, gridiron not so good, still too much dust for me
Overall was happy starting 5th in the Amain!!!!
Sunday Main day
Ok I am the last race, so I decided to go through the buggy (ok my dad go thru it)
And I would help out my friends by pitting and such!!
Ok finally my race is up...... wow what a wait!!
but we had to hurry since they was calling for RAIN!!!!
Had a extended warm up, Josh Wheeler had a issue with his buggy so we waited..
Time to Race , motor running awesome (Byrons and Alpha).
Ready, set GOOOOO!!!!!
Of course ple up first corner, Lutz, Wheeler and I get though ok...
Buggy is working great keeping pace with them, Lutz starting to pull away a bit...Wheeler has something go wrong he is out...
Wow in second place now... but it seems I went too soft in the rear shock..
dang it is really hard to keep up this pace...
Castleberry catches we and pulls away... almost feels like the shock oil changed to 10wt lighter...One other gets past so I end up 4th.....
This race has different format, it almost is like a rocket rocket for the mains...
so I endup 7th overall.. not bad for such high caliper races at the event
Just wish the oil did fad so bad... could have been better..
Well there is always next time....
Thanks to everyone that attended the race and to Intechracing to sponsor the event!!!
