I need to follow Proctor's line. That thing was so slow, but so dialed.
Your welcome. Check out my other videos to see Proctor race in slow motion at Wolcott. It's like slow motion porn on wheels!

Good times last night, big thanks to Jon and Mark for the overhaul. Track was very smooth plus the addition of the straight is fantastic, any chance of installing a stop sign somewhere towards the end for those of use who’s vision and reaction times aren’t what they used to be?

Awesome job on all the changes! I really think letting the track set up made a huge difference, no way a previous change ever would have stood up to the same amount of entries you had last nite. BTW is that the new permanent location of the air hose?

That location is great Rick, you don’t even have to get out of your chair to use it.

Re: Air Hose

If I remember, I'll stop by Harbor Freight this weekend and pick up a new nozzle. The pens were SUPER ghetto.

mark/john, you guys did a great job on all of the changes. the track was a lot of fun to race on, even though my cars sucked last night. i have to make some tuning changes to both cars to adjust to this layout. see everyone next week.

Hey guys, I decided to get back into the hobby after 8 years removed. I still have my truck(Team Losi XXT MF2) that was only run acouple times and electronics/radio. When I started looking online I found Connecticut now has a good number of tracks and 2 are right by me, you guys and Wolcott Raceway. While also looking online I found out that there's 2.4GHz radios now, brushless motors/esc are the normal and it seems that the stadium truck isn't. Does my old stuff have any value or is it best just to start over? I can post some pics if that helps. Are you guys gonna be racing tomorrow, if so I was planning on stopping by to check it out. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I would but I only have 17.5 in both my buggy and my SC-10. If you could convince them to run a 17.5 I might but the track may not be 17.5 friendly.

Yeah it's VRC. I uploaded the replay and the owner of VRC put Scotty Ernst announcing a race on it and uploaded it to Youtube.
