WTG Zack!

man, hearing you come up is impressive. Its starting to come together for you. Everyone will tell you they've cracked under pressure. Happens to the best of us.

Keep up the good work. You'll get the #1 spot in no time. Just maintain focus and drive your line. I like to look at every race as a Qual and not a main, just me and the clock.

GL to all the Banzai crew.

Thanks Momo....yea im still trying to learn as i go! but the main thing is i had lots of fun.

and yes Scott me and Brent had some good battles he is very smooth!!! But once i put my NEW b4 on the track with no slop and fast bearings I plan on going at least 2 tenths faster a lap(at least I hope) to cut down on my overall time by A LOT, at least thats what happened last time I got a new b4!

Cant wait to see everyone at the Nats...me and Wayne are so ready.

Never forget to have fun. I think there are some folks out there (You see them at the track) who are so focused on the win, they forget to enjoy themselves.

Is the B4 a replacement for a different car, or just a rebuild on the orig. car?

I've raced a B4 for YEARS, I love it! I just picked up a complete spare roller for cheap. Im thinking of adapting some parts to my vintage RC10. Can't beat the B4. On the BL, how are you gearing it, in case I get one soon?

AE : Wayne tells me you are ready!!!!!!!! So, now we just
get there and have a good time!

Guys, if you need anything for the Nats, I need those orders
in now! They've been coming in, but I want to have everything
ready this week-end!! I will have extra stuff with me as
usual.

Momo: AE isn't using a BL system. We have a lot of team guys
who haven't made a switch yet due to the fact we can only
run brushed in stock and 19t at the JBRL.

Yes as Scott said its just a NEW b4 for the nats...i have gone through 4 now...im team AE all day everyday. hahaha

And then Wayne knows whats up with me...im going to the Nats to try and prove something...and i have not only been practicing my heart out I have been working(yes like a job) to get the money to do this...RIGHT...im going to this race to have fun but im taking it veary seriously! I want to win.

Today I went out and bought 4 scales(little ones) for each tire on my car to make sure the weight is evenly balanced on each tire...I did all the bearing tricks in the tranny...and this car is going to be PERFECT i hope.

So Scott you know im going to need a brand new stock for back up and a brand new 19turn! And I know all the motors from team drivers to just a customer have the same care and time put in them...but I need mine to have even more then that!

Dave and I ran at Mikes in Dallas this weekend. There were 12 mod cars, 9 or which were 4wd. I qualified 3rd and Dave 4th, and we swapped places in the finishing order. The main was rough. Q2 I was leading right about on tq pace and had a lap car drive through me. At my best run I was on a pace a lap faster than my last trip, I just do not have any luck.

Billy the luck will come, just hang in there, you're constantly
improving! Good job to you and David!!

Casper, awesome job at Pegasus! Zack, watched you on LIVER/C,
good job!! Week-end wins for Banzai.

Also, PLEASE read! I'm not sure how much I should post, so kind
of read between the lines. A member of the Banzai Nation has
been deployed to a war zone. Drew's son, Jason, has been racing
in Florida, and now he and his mom will be racing while Dad, Drew
is deployed.

Drew has been reading the thread, but he forgot his sign-in stuff!
So, he emailed me, and wanted you all to know he'll be rooting for
the team at the Nats as our #1 fan!!!!!!!!

We'll do our best to make you proud, Drew, just as you are making
us so proud !! Thank you, and know that you are in our thoughts
and prayers!!!!!!!

BTW: The Nats will be on LIVER/C if you can get to a computer, Drew.

well thats ok, the only thing you would have heard in MY race at least is Fez making fun of me bobbing my head on the drivers stand or him making fun of me for bringing a girl with me hahahahahahhaha.

It was really REALLY fun tho...I can see how all the guys from there get so fast it takes skill to drive those tracks!

Also, I just want to say thanks to Danny Greco for helping me out a bunch while I was there.
