I drug out the TC3 "O" for the race. Hope I wasn't in the way too much with it. It has been over a year since I drove it. A total of 6 laps in two qualifiers proved that!
Terry took it out after the racing was over.... He was FAST with it. Came off the drivers stand and joked," I guess it wasn't the car!!" LOL!! I had been telling him that all night!!

I remember emailing you when you came out w/ V 1.0 of that thing. I want to see it in person, and possibly drive it. I thought it was pretty cool for its time. Closest I ever got was the TC3 Rally conversion! Might actually have to find it and make it a rally car again!
Congrats to everyone esp. the CCA and all they do.

I'm coming out early with my son tomorrow. It seems like the Associated I can throw around more and is more forgiving. The majority of the problems are my driving skills I am sure, but the T4 just feels more like my style.
I'm gonna try some different tires and see if I can get it more to my liking.
I will hit you guys up for info tomorrow.

If I don't try it I won't know what it does incase I need to use it. I have been going back and forth with a lighter set up and heavy.
I think the extra weight works well on the high bite track with good power if you can drive the line everytime.
At ECT I had a horrible time with electrical and speedo settings. I was ready to go home before the mains started.
I will run a lite set up at TRCR and hopefully have a better round 5 and 6.

HELLO FROM DON
HELLO and good morning to all of you.
Thought I would just check in and say hi. Hey MoMo NICE TO see you as well. I would like to say thank you to all of you for the help and kindnies you show Diane .
I see it all of the time but sometimes forget to say thanks at that time.
Well FOR ME boating season is just around the corner so i will be spending time out at westmorland in the near future. I have a new landing craft that i will be working on soon. Something like the one I brought down to Amain one night with the tanks that some of you saw.
NOW IT makes me feel good knowing
she is taken care of and watch out for .
WHen she comes down on her own or I drop her off.
That is what we mean we say were a big family that is what it is all about to help and watch out for each other and have fun racing.
OK I went off subject sorry about that one.
DON YOUR Vintage dirver.

Hey everyone love my rt5 but have a couple questions
where and how much weight works best?
Should shocks be easy to compress completely when off the truck?
And it seems like my shocks are always coming loose
my qualifier one of the front ones completely blew out the bottom the little black cap came unthreaded and dumped everything

It was my son's slash so I was fun getting to run with you guys. His is a over a year old and still all stock and on the stock worn tires. Special note to you all though; the tires work best in the factory direction. turning them around made the truck loose in the rear around corners. After the races I was able to turn faster laps with the tires in the normal direction. Even beating the track lap record held by an SC10 .

Tim (olucky) knows this one better than just about anyone else - he's won many a race with non-premium equipment. Not that he can't afford it - but there is a measure of satisfaction from winning races with what many would consider sub-par stuff. It's a lesson that's taken me a long time to learn, but racing with a cheaper setup is still racing. Congratulations for winning with a beat up truck, you drove the wheels off it! The killer body made it looks new, at least.
