Wyd, you had the Slash working really good. I still think the BLITZ is a tick faster. Sucks we won't be able to race again until the 19th. Bring your A game...I may not get the Russ Wheeler treatment the next time around!

Congrats Dan on sweeping your two classes. Jason has found some serious speed and looked to be the only guy there to come close to your pace. Keep up the great work. Thanks for putting on a good show for your sponsors

Thanks for your tips and tricks for 2wd, Jason. The buggy felt more planted and had a lot more forward grip. Congrats on your run as well!

Bryan

I think your Blitz is a little faster but I think alot is how we corner. You seem to be sliding around the corners which is very fast if you can do it while I'm more slow a little and get it to turn. I think my way is easier to be consistant but your way ends up faster so I guess when its all said and done it is who can run their game plan the best. I'm working with what my Slash can do and you are doing what your Blitz can do. Fact is both ways get it done!!!!!! I'm not sure I can slide my Slash around corners but I know it can do it as Justin Mohn does it alot and can run fast but is not running consistant. I never really liked the sliding around method as its just not me but I guess I better learn it some as I might be needing it!!!!!!!!

Yeah Jason Haas was flying. I guess he needs to have sleep deprevation as it really worked out great for him. Jason you should just stay up all night every weekend.

no, its a spec class with expert drivers in mind. helps make racing better for the new folks and young folks....and so for the expert/neo-pro/'faster' drivers.

more fun for all and its already showing its worth. not modified, that idea died long ago. the truck is fun as it is.

This class is the same as Spec except it is geared toward the better faster drivers. The new racers, kids, or racers just learning (kinda a novice class)
