OK, I've been very patient today and haven't bugged

anyone on the cell phones, so does any one know what's

going on up at the Nats??

Not knowing just kills me!!

I'm having trouble getting around on this site today. The search

engine won't work. Don't know if it's my computer, or the site!

In the Northwest racers section, is the thread for the Nats. Finally I

was able to get into that.

Jeremy is still fast today. Looks like 25 sec. laps is what it's

going to take. That's all I know so far.

Default Brush Hood Alignment?

What tool do you use? Over the the hoods("H" looking thing) or through the motor? (take the armature out and replace it with a rod)
Thanks!
Jeff

Jeff, we use a special made alignment bar. I've sent

you an email.

Packing up to leave in the morning for Camarillo, if you need anything special

send me an email. I'll have motors, stock,19t, and mods. Brushes for all

also. And of course, T-shirts!

Casper, I WILL remember to bring a chair!!!!

But Scott might not have one!!!

And now the news you've all been waiting for.....

Team Slingshot/Banzai driver Jeremy Felles is TQing both Truck and 4wd 19 turn at the Stock Nationals up in Washington State. I was told by a reliable source that he had 0 qual points after 2 rounds in both classes (but that;s not verafied). Way to go Jeremy....

We are all proud of you back in Southern California!!!

Good luck with the rest of the weekend...

Good luck to all Bonzai racers at Camarillo!


Todd: Good news for you on the weather report. Maybe this time you'll be able to finish the race. You looked really HURTING at the Shootout...

Todd- Make sure you get some new batteries or whatever was stopping you from making that double, I noticed you weren't there the 2nd heat when I could see the start finish line .

Yeah, I think I toasted my 3800's when I put them on the Spintec...I changed motors, pinions and have concluded it is the batts. My old 3300's have held up better...that's because they take more abuse. Tonight was not fun and my son was exhausted so we left early...I need to redeem myself in Camarillo. Don't worry, I'll be standing right next to you!!!!!!!!

Watch out....I'll have new batts (Keith you have a PM) and brand new Banzai's strapped in!!!

On sunday, I burnt up my brand new co27 banzai. Didn't tighten the motor screws down and I got hit from behind, didn't notice till it was too late. I may be running my dad's that's still in the package. I also have brand new 3800 Promatches (average 1.226) that I should be running in the heats/main(s).

Update: We should be leaving in about an hour. We will be bringing a generator, Chuck Fowler will probably be pitting next to us and using it. We got a couple easy ups (2, chuck may be brining a third), at least 2 tables (don't know if Chuck has 1), and chairs for the four of us (me, my brother, dad, and friend). I'll also be bbqing today (hotdogs unless you bring something ).
