14 minute main so run times became a non factor. Started and stayed in 3rd for the first 2-3 laps and then a couple of mistakes by 1 and 2 allowed me to take the lead for a couple laps before my pit stop. The E-truggy in our race passed me when I pitted and since he didn't have to pit I was unable to catch him. (he came In for a stop and go but it wasn't a 10 second pit stop like Nitro has to do)
He beat me by 16 seconds so it would not have mattered anyway. Finished the race with 2nd place and never touched my needles the whole day.
Buggy wasn't so great as I ran out of fuel halfway through the 14 minute main with a stock Alpha
The Werks engine just get retarded runtimes ! happy to hear the ole B5 is doing you well !
