I drove right by it Saturday coming back from Hotrods. It's a few miles down the road, but we're getting the ash fall out.

Isn't that DeJA Vu? Didn't we put that Fire business behind us last year?

WTF?

I'll blow as hard as I can and try to send some rain clouds S to help you all out! We had a decent weekend up here, however, the rain started in morning.


I'll be thinking of you all.

They say this area has not burned in 40 years. We has a lot of areas' burn last year but one of the problems is that with the decent rain we had there is a lot of new growth that came out of the burn area's. If we have another hot dry summer all those area's are a severe threat again. Luckly this is only one fire so they can put a full frontal assult on it and see if they can knock it out. When we had a dozen fires last year there were not enough crews to fight it all.

Lets hope we don't have to go through all that again this year!

I'm trying to back-track to the posts I should have answered
before! Sorry I'm a little slow today, but I am working!

A big congrats to our Billy!! He will be running for HB now!
We are certainly growing the HB team!
I think that's 5, Felles, R.James, Hase, Marcus, and now Billy!

In the "old days" it was Losi and Associated, now it
looks like we're moving towards HB and KI- O- SHO !
(I did that for you Casper, you can ALMOST hear
me say it! )

K-bojar, you're just tearing it up in oval!! I'm gonna
be looking for another oval title from you!

Drew, good to see Jason doing well and having a good time!
BANZAI NATION going strong down south! PLEASE say
hello to my Marcus for me!

Scott, did you get a chance to run the speed control in brushed mode at hot rods last weekend? If so how was it?

Thanks...Greg

No, I didn't. I'm going to have to just go out on a practice day and do it. On a race day I get too pre-occupied. But it is next on the list.

Yea, watched the drag race between A force and j force.

Lined up, looked like an even start but J Force smoked the tires and it allowed ashley to win. Great for her. Im wondering if Dad did it on purpose....

Anxiously awaiting more feedback on the ESCs. i really want to get one, but witht he kid, My lady is curbing some of my hobby spending. i need to dump off some of my collection and get focused on racing and vintage. Out with the old, in with the new!

Scott/Mom- Im sure if the flames get close enough, the racers close to you will rush over with garden hoses and help protect Fort Banzai from the flames. Also feel free to send me any spare motors and inventory you might need "Stored" in the event of fire. Im always wiling to help!

MOMO, I don't know what's going on with the fire today, will
have to watch the news. Just looked outside, still lots of
smoke coming from that direction!

UPDATE: We are continuing to get new items in for the BL
systems! The 3 in-a-package, gold connectors came in today!
Also, more of the 180mm sensor wires!!!!!!!! Fingers crossed
motors will follow soon! We have 13.5, 17.5 and 10.5 on order.

I have the new speedcontrols, and 5.5 and 6.5 motors in stock
now! Scott is working on updating the web-site, but we'd like
to have the rest of the motors before we upload it so we can
take pictures!

Since I can't post prices here, email me if you need anything,
or want prices!!

We are also still carrying brushed motors! I have CO27's,
KD19's and CP based mod motors!
