I have an Elixer of STFU I'd be willing to share. Clearly I don't need it.

Yeah, I got the idea from hanulec. Lock & Lock is what they're called. Good for oils, parts, etc. Also, my small parts containers (like for screws) I wrap many times with saran wrap to keep them closed.

I'll have the one with my oils at the track tonight if you want to inspect it.

However, Jade Anderson has admitted to throwing the shoe on stage, but also added that she didn't mean to hurt him. Speaking to a Scottish radio show, Anderson stated, "I just wanted him to touch something belonging to me. I didn't mean to hit him where I hit him, I'm really embarrassed."

This is the second time in just a few months that Styles has suffered a blow to the groin whilst on stage, after a flying shoe hit him at Sydney's Horden Pavilion last April.

The latest single from One Direction, this is 'Stop Throwing Your Fucking Shoes at my Nuts'

Are we going to have enough people this weekend to run both 17.5 and 13.5 12th scale? I know there a couple of us planning on racing 13.5 at nats.

I won't be there tonight, but will be at the track all day Saturday and Sunday.

I'm planning to be there all day Saturday as well. Anybody else planning to show up?

Maybe we should all chip in and order pizza or something. I feel like we need a bonding moment before nats. Lots of b2b hugs.

Are we going to have Pitting practice this weekend? It could take hours to figure out how arrange a pit area efficiently.

My pitting practice last night was fruitful, I think. It made me realize where I need extra space, and how I might be able to fit everything. Honestly, I think the biggest problem isn't going to be the actual 36x18 space that you are directly working on. I think it will be the extra stuff that you don't necessarily need on your workspace, but need with you. For instance:

- radio
- bodies
- spare parts
- extra tires
- unused tools
- oils, etc

Normally we use a hauler bag or something of the sort of these items, but I think floor space is also going to be at a premium (and most of us arent flying with our hauler bag). Bodies and tires could be handled with an extra chunk of shelving (ala the high wooden shelf you can "order") but the rest of the stuff is still up in the air...at least for me.

Oh and Clegg, I bought 2x of those bigger shelves you posted (albeit from walmart) and they are way too big. The smaller ones seem to work well, but the big ones take up half of your pit and make it nigh impossible to use your setup board (depends on your charger setup though, too, I suppose). I still want to try elevating my pit light, which might help, but we will see.

Yeah I found that out myself the other day... They are now relegated to holding bodies above my pit because they are way too big for the small space. I ordered another 18x7 shelf which is the same size as the one I took to IIC and is in my pit now and I think 2 or 3 of those stacked may get me where I need to go to have space.

The smaller one that I posted the other day is nice. But I am going to see what I can do with a stack of 18x7 shelves first as they are 3" shallower than the other one.

Storing stuff under the table is going to be interesting since I know I am flying with two roller bags for gear. Not too functional to keep those under the table. Only taking 1/12 is going to help with this space constraint... if I were doing WGT + Touring + 1/12 I am not sure where I'd fit everything.
