What a fun day of racing last night was, I was more psyched about Matt's 16.8 fast lap in his first race day with the ZX5, than I was about my 28 lap main. We had some good racing, we had some bad racing, and everything in between, all in all a very Fun day...

I think my truck is taking the Fun spot of my racing, and 4wd is gonna be my new competitive class...

Still 22 laps in quals. is still eluding me.... I guess I got a couple more weeks to get it....

Last night I ran BK Bars Rear and Holeshots Front and was hooked up.
I could be wrong as I'm fairly new to the 4wd thing, but they mostly stock Kyosho and AE parts so the ZX5s and B44s are well supported. I don't believe there are any HB parts.

You are correct, doors open at nine and racing starts at noon(ish).
The track is more technical then fast so bring your driving skills.....not a super fast motor and battery.
The current layout is actually designed for 17.5 motors so even if you're running stock.....you could be competative.

Thanks Freddy! I think those couple of sub 17 laps I had were more the setup then my driving, but only time will tell.

You'll get 22 soon, don't worry bout that. Your getting faster and faster every week.

double dee's are always a safe bet ,bk bars and taper pin have been working like matt said and if the track gets loomy goose bumps. motor: 10.5 seams to be the best motor right now its not to much and its not to little but there is " no motor rule"so run what you have

Like I said my hired driver has skills. Congrats guys, on the good LIR showing. Congrats to my MUTSON racing sponsored racer, Kyle. I am going to get you a t-shirt made up, you earned it. You make my equipment look good.

Mark- Thankyou for all the technical support and set up support on Saturday.
