very nice bodies!

There was some great USGT racing action last night in the Grand Forks area. Didn't get to play as I didn't have my USGT ready but it was fun looking none the less.

At the American Legion. It runs every other tuesday night. It just started up. I believe the club is called Grand Cities RC Club and one of its primarily areas for info is on the krcproducts.com/forum board, but they do have a section in the ND thread area on rctech.

They may even do a weekend event.

no prob, had a great time as usual and I think they got a good core group of guys there with a real passion for rc.

heck, if offroad is your thing there is a guy in that area with a lot of land it appears who may be able to have races as he already has the workings of a track there.

Over in the USVTA thread, this was posted:

So I'm still rockin' my Turnigy Trackstar 21.5 motor and have been considering upgrading. If I were to consider a Fantom Ion, holy jeebus... there are a ton of options. Not sure what rotor would be considered OEM since everything is optional. I guess the first motor on the page would be the only one legal, correct?

For simplicity sake, I might just go with an LRP X20 21.5...

Anyone do USGT using the Viper VST motors? Got an old trusty Speed Passion 3.0 here but was thinking of picking up a Viper VST on the cheap to make timing changes a bit easier.

Finally finished up my 350Z. Saving for USVTA Indoor Carpet Nationals in Ft. Wayne in two weeks. Associated TC6. My goal, as always, is to not be last!

Now it will be a competion of which McLaren body is better. The HPI or ProtoForm. I'm painting up an HPI now. Mounting it might just have to wait.
