Sounds like you had a tough trip. I'm sure you'll do better next time. If I make it out there, I'll give you hand.

Captain, traction was more down than up! Make Toledo if you can. Very consistant, high traction.
Should have had you buy one gallon at a time (share with your friends). Hope you didn't have to give away what was left-over. I didn't think of it at the time (had my own problems to deal with).

I'm glad you like it.
Did you actually run it with a clear body?

I just finished building my new 960 and painted the shell, my 2nd attempt at airbrushing. First race will be this sat on the newly sealed track in Hamilton, Ontario. I'm praying for sun!

The up and down play is fine. You will not run into any problems with it.
