TimXLB right now I'm just flying the Hirobo XRB to relax and have fun. I sold my Blade but will be getting either the new Venom CP (Like the Blade with some green alum. updates) or taking a huge step up and buy a T-Rex and slowly built that up. I'm not a great flyier but can normally hover pretty decent and move it around slowly. I don't really practice on a Sim yet but will once I get the machine I really want.

Well about time!!!!!! Remember you need to charge your packs before they will run in the car.

Well I just go home and wanted to post that Tag and I went to ThunderRoadRC in Gordansville, Va. for thier 'Birds warm-up race....

It wasn't that big of a turn-out but the guys that did show were some pretty well know guys. LOL

Tag and I both did some GOOD testing for the 'Birds!

Some of the things Tag found in stk..........are gonna make alot of guys HAPPY!

Tag ran stk. and BYFAR had THE fastest car on the track. He TQ'ed (YEAH I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE THINKING) But his car was DIALED! In the main he and another car got together in the first turn and Tag's body got tucked. It took him half a lap to get around so I could untuck it. Mark Unrath jumped out to almost half a lap lead and Tag ended up running him back down to with in about 5ft at the tone for a 2nd! Tag had him covered lap for lap by about .3 secs alap.

I ran 19t and had a pretty good car. Ended up 2nd on the grid behind Paul Lemieux. I think Pauls single fastest lap of the day was an 8.3. I was able to run a good amount of 8.4's.... But paul is a machine he want make a mistake!

Well for the main I pulled a STUPID move. I made some changes to the car to try some thing and forgot to put the screw back into the front knuckle! On the tone the car pushed right thru the sweeper! But I got to watch Paul run a great race! With Mark Unrath taking.

Guys Tag hit on some VERY GOOD things today in both stk. and 19t. He lent out a 19t to a guy who wants to remain nameless (you have seen him on TV on Sunday) But he ran one of Pauls 19t then Tag gave him one.... The look on his face after one lap said it all! He had to stop and starp him self in! LOL

SWEET!!!!

Is that the new accordion style battery bars for 3800's? When will they be released? Is it true they give you more front bite? Will I have to do any work to my chassis in order to get them to fit?

OH, now I see...theyre Brandon's batteries...so thats why they're TWEAKED!

Great racing with you guys yesterday at Horsham. Those Atlas 19 motors are off the hook. No one can touch those speeds. After I got my bearings together and shook the rust off, winning the B main was pretty easy. The IB3800 cells ran perfectly. I can't wait to get a few more runs in on them. Freddy and Chris - Great runs in the stock A main. With 30 seconds to go, Freddy was in the lead and got nervous.. You still did excelent! Schreff, Koway, Williams and Fairtrace had absolutely blazing speeds in 19 turn. I think I'll be joining you guys in 19 turn next week **hint hint, Tag**

Great time after the race too at Bennigans.

John
