Yes Masami is that fast. Car looks like it is on carpet. Looks like second place is going to be a battle.

The track is extremely abrasive and most are running new tires every round. They did get to do 5 rounds of practice with 2 being timed to set the qualifiers. They are planning on doing another round of practice tomorrow before qualifying starts. Opening ceremonies are at 9am. Stay tuned as there were a ton of people taking pictures. They were also very easy with who was allowed where but tomorrow they are going to enforce the different areas of where people can be. Should be a fun and interesting day.

Wow, that track is huge and Masami is still a whole lap faster. Granted this is still just practice but it's pretty impressive anyway.

It would be interesting to see 1/12 on hand out spec tires........Masami might not be a whole lap faster.

so you're saying that after how many years now that masami has dominated 1/12 racing, that no one has figured out what tires he runs? sounds like sour grapes to me

I have also heard he has some special Yokomo tires that no one else can get a hold of....

1/12th Worlds on carpet would be a different story!!

I've heard that too but why can't Jaco or TRC or some other foam tire company come up with something that can compete? It's not like this is something new.
