Are any of you guys going to McCullough's for the gas race on Saturday? I won't be running at Altoona at all this year due to the move to Saturday...unless there's some Sunday races.

Brad - Sounds good, no...still running the GS and just got the new CL-1 Advanced buggy last week. I'm not going to run the new buggy until later this year but put the new big bore shocks and a couple other improvements on the car I'm running. My car only has only been raced 4-5 weekends so I don't need a new car right now. I haven't been out to McCullough's in a couple months so I will try to get there early on Saturday for practice. I don't see myself going back to the Losi because I like this car more. Saturday at Altoona is not good for my schedule but I have someone near McCullough's that can watch the kids Saturday's. I will be going to some other tracks that run on Sunday but they're 2-3 hrs away.

Gixxerman, are you going with the stock 3mm thick sails or getting the 5mm upgrade kit?
Marshalling Mod Sailboat will be great on hot sunny days. Just be prepared to tread water for 2-4 hours. Yes, those SHORT 1/8 scale hour long mains are now SISSY like! Mod Sailboat is for the serious enduro rc racer!
Ed, rubbin is Sailboat racin, LOOK OUT!

Brad - There's no way I could take them with me...I'd go nuts! Maybe next year my son can come race with me, he'll be six.

Mines been driving RC's for a couple years now and he's doing pretty good with them. I got him a Tamiya Lunchbox for Christmas and he drives it around inside the house without hitting anything. He has something I don't...throttle control

Sam, I remember watching your kid drive last year at the off-road track and he seemed like a natural with the remote. I thought to myself you might have yourself some competition there someday.
Trust me on this, not all kids are 'down' with RC. If he's really into it, consider yourself lucky!
