Bill may not be there:
The good news is Sydor said he can't make it to put everyone 2 laps done! LOL His 417x was goooooooooooooooooone in USGT.
But that car will.
Mr. Murphy had that thing making the timing loop scream........
9.1 .... 9.1 let off the throttle poppy!!!!!!
Just a heads up.
I also understand young Mr. Whiteside has his Battery Giant powered car just a Flyyyyynnnnn.
Should be some freaky fast fun qualifiers!!!!

Bill will be at a race in CO so he will not be there....plus I dont think he handed out 2 laps to everyone...he did hand them their arse at the last race but it wasnt that shameful.
Rich has a 416 now so there isnt any reason for failure anymore.
RJ has been a force in the USGT class all winter nothing should change....
It should be a heck of a Nationals on the 14th!!!

What car are you running? IMO laying shocks in will have less effect than playing with camber links. I'd start there instead 
I think it would be great if USGT/RCGT or whatever held to HPI Xpatterns on cool rims. The reality is most places are running some type of spoked premount.
The Solaris Mediums are carpet worked really well and probably a bit faster than the XPattern in any compound.
There will be some good USGT racing this weekend at the final round of the Hurricane All Star Series at "The Track".

+1 on HPI X-Patterns... most popular choice here locally are the 4495, belted, stock inserts. Many rim choices, tires last forever. Track here runs Lemans style, VTA and "RCGT/USGT" together.. everyone running 25.5 motors. Pretty cool to watch!

This race sounds like its going to be a great one. With the close racing in the Hurricane series and down at the Southern nats everybody should be in the run for the title. Now I'm going to have to work on my car and make sure i actually make the A this year.

C'mon RJ working on the car is overrated. I don't even know what weight oil is in my car. I'd say I'm going to win, but I like to leave before the Mains anyway LOL

I do apologize for the lateness of this as well as the not having the spec tires sooner. This is and should not be any reflection on anyone other than myself for not having them sooner.
We will have a "special" run-in/practice time for USGT on the spec tires for those coming in on Saturday, time TBD. Set of 4 pre-mounts will be under $20.
