It sucks that you had to see that, I think you handled it great. At the same time I started laughing pretty hard. All the stink about the 17.5 class, motors, tech'n, blah, blah... It just goes to show you if you have that mindset you will find a way no matter the class.

I'm sure there's an obvious answer but what would installing a gyro do exactly?
Counter steer midair or does I give the car stability control?

Duck, it counter steers in corners for you. It will over ride your radio to keep the car from assing around.

New tire pricing program at Wolcott Hobby. Now through the month of February, buy 5 pair and get the sixth pair for free!

We already discount our tire from the msrp, and now have a great way to save you even more of your hard earned$$ Prices good on in-stock inventory, and special order! If you do not see a tire in-stock you run, just ask us!

Don't be afraid to ask about our prepay order for kits and electronics as well! If you don't mind waiting a few days for your items, we offer a program to pay for the item in full, wait a few days, and say some big $$$

Old news. I've run a gyro in all my rides since day one. That's why you never see me spin out, or crash.

lol

I've got spares if anybody else needs one.

I'll definitely try to be there. Sure would be nice if I could get my grubby mitts on a Tekno SCT by then though.
