Yea Neal. I've got two new STHIL chainsaws that need to be sent
out to be ported. We have to send the saws all the way out
to Oregon for competition mods and he is always booked up two
months in advance. I wouldn't want to ask just anyone to mod
my wacker engine for me. Especialy someone of the same gender.

I thought id stop in to share some pics from last weekends race. These were taken at the Texas Fall Championships at the I-27 Speedway in Lubbock and sponcered by Proline tires. I didn't do the greatest, but took 7th in the Truggy Pro-class A-Main. Not bad for only being my 6th race ever!

Thanks! Yea at the end of the A-Main all of the other guys were asking me what kind of engine I was running. Said it was an absolute monster and impossible to pass in the straights They all asked me what kind of run time I was getting and totally freaked out when I told them that I made 10min pit stops Truth be told though, I could actually, safely, make 11-11:30min pit stops But why chance it! Id still need 3 pits in a 30min main anyways.. And yes, the track was cool as heck! Small and very technical, it allowed me to sharpen some much needed skills! By this time next year im sure i'll be making the top 5 on a regular basis!

Nice work!

Wouldn't you only need 3 pit stops in a 30 minute main if you could go 11-11:30 per tank? That is a huge advantage!

Exactly! And honestly, if you watch the video that I posted of the 2011 Tumbleweed Classic out here in New Mexico, you can see that I only pitted 2 times during the 30min main 3x if you include the tank that I started out with... Not bad for a modded 25!
