1st day of qualifying is over for us electric guys.
Casper's gonna kill me, but I can't find my instructions
on qual points!
Yes, he wrote them out for me. 
There's a section on LiveRC that I looked in, but not sure
its' right. IF it is, Casper, Keith, Scott and a bunch of
customers are in the A's so far. Butts will be there tomorrow.
Had a few technical problems, a couple speed control "shut-downs'
and a couple other things. But motors are running strong.
Felles looks good, just out by a hair. He's running mod this year,
2wd and 4wd. He likes to make me a nervous wreck, so fingers
crossed he gets in tomorrow.
Don't know if anyone else has computer access, if so, please post!
The Aussies and Germans were rooting us on today!! Thanks Guys!

Jason, it's fun to watch, isn't it! Glad to see you and
Puddle in there!
Talked to Scott, he's REALLY tired, but tried to remember
friends and customers running Banzai. Who he could remember,
so root for them tomorrow too!
Erik Elliott, Theo Captanis, Nick Sava, Johnny S., Michael Baker,
Manuel Aguilar, Ryan Pursley. Johnny S., not sure, is your brother
running Banzai? Thank you all for a great showing today!!
Felles is 13th in 4wd mod, so he's close!!!
Scott charged batteries WRONG and blew up a cell in his last heat!
He said sorry guys, he WON'T do that tomorrow!!
I'm going up sometime tomorrow, so I won't be here to post. I will
when I get home. Scott's had fun talking to a lot of old friends,
Ryan Maifield ( known him since he was a kid! ), Tebo, the guys
on the Japanese team, Gil Losi Jr. Makes these races fun to see
people we don't see every week!!

Another Shoot-Out in the books! I'm sure Scott will be in
here to update when he feels human again!
He worked on
everyone's motors all week-end and customers kept him busy!
And they had a great showing!! Steve Butts came in on Saturday,
and made the show with only 2 qualifiers! Thanks for the extra
effort Steve!!
Team Results A-Mains
19t Buggy Casper 3rd
19t Buggy Steve Butts 6th
Scott White Old Dudes 4th
Felles I think qualified 13th in the B Main Mod 4wd and didn't make
the main, so finished 10th. His first time out with mod and 4 wd.
So, with only 4 team guys there, I think they did us proud!
We had customers ask to be included in results, so I did my best
to go through the results, and try to get everyone. I KNOW I will
probably miss someone, so PLEASE post it if I missed you!! And
again, we Thank You so very much for your loyal support!

I am glad I got to visit with most of you the day Jason and I were
there. I have to admit, sitting at home and watching on LiveRC
in the air-conditioning is really great, compared to the heat there!
Good job everyone, and Thank You all again!

Well I accomplished 1 of my 2 main goals, which was to get in the A main in stock. I was sitting 16th after the 1st round, then 6th at the end of the 1st day. I have a bad run in my first race, a guy got into me and my whole turnbuckle flew off and I was done with 1-2 laps to go. My 2nd race I did a lot better, managed to finish 3rd in my race and 6th overall. I think I was running mid 21s at that point in the race.
Day 2 I started out good, I finished 11th overall in round 3, then for round 3 picked it up and finished 8th so I would be starting 8th in the A Main.
In A1 a blue X-6 took me out (and others from what I saw him race over the weekend) and I was last after the first lap. I managed to get through and finish 6th. In A2 he took me out again, and I again managed to finish 6th. I was pretty happy with that so fa because I had a chance to get a Top 5 overall. Start of A3 I got by the wreck in the first turn, then coming over the first bump over the table top a <gasp> blue X-6 blasted me. I didnt lose that much time, and was in the top 5 until a kid just BLASTED me on the pitcher's mound area and I went back to last. I was disappointed but that, because he's the same kid at every JBRL that complains that nobody drives him clean and has something to say everytime I've been there about how people drive him but oh well, I will see him Sunday.
Truck I wasn't so fortunate. I had some issues and didnt get many good runs in, until it was too late. Started 5th in the B and finished 4th.
Big thanks to Scott for helping me out and Ray, Brian, Mitch, and Keegan for making it a really good time.

Kevin, good job on making the A! We'll reach that
other goal yet!
Watching on LiveRC, it's kind of hard to tell, but there
were some pretty good, shall we say, "wrecks" !
Most important, glad you had a good time!
