None at te moment... :smiley_aayp:

I've been working on the House and building a Crawler. But I think the Crawler is going to get pushed aside so I can get my Buggy, GT and T4 ready for race action.

I'll get to the Crawler when I get to it.

Are you still thinking of going to Family this weekend? I know I'm going. Even with all that rain, they raced because the rain stopped. If you are thinking of going and think you might have trouble getting there, let me know in email and I'll give you my cell # and go from there. I'll prolly leave around 3-4 pm because it's an hour and 10 minutes from my house to there. I have to drive from NW Knoxville so a lot of it is in city traffic. LMK.

Next weekend Im racing rd3 of the RC ProSeries Califonia division...Im definately running the buggy class, but I may run 1/8 truck too depending on what the turnout is like.

I should probably be wrenching right now, I have so much to do before I can consider myself prepared...ok time to go clean my stuff up and start getting ready.

Well how Ive done is pretty good in the novice 1/8 class... :nodding: 2nd in points! :nodding: I would have been 1st if I did better at rd1. Throttle servo died sometime between my last heat and the A main :confused: I qualified 6th, but finished 10th due to the DNS :smiley_aayp:

http://jeff.rcpics.net/rcprostateseries/norcal/points/ use the tabs at the bottom of the page to see the Novice class.

They want me to move up, cause I TQed both heats at rd2 and won...They said my finish was the equivilant of 8th in the B...Kind of sucks, cause I dont want to move up to the Pro class. I really dont think Im ready to drive at that kind of pace. Its a little intimidating, running against sponsored pro's and guys that can afford anything....luckily there arent too many of them.

Im expecting to get my A$$ handed to me...wish me luck.

Dunno in trucks, it was fast and could get faster. I pulled a DOH at the start, and stripped a steering servo horn.

2nd in sedan late model, got beat at the end b/c I changed motors and didn't gear it high enough...needs 3 or MORE teeth...no biggie.

Well, the big day has come and gone. I did ok, 6th in expert C. I was hoping for better, but its ok, I did better than most of the other locals so overall it was a good raceday...I got to meet some pro's and check out Phillip Atondo's Losi 8ight up close and personal...its a awesome looking and performing car. He TQ'd and won by 2 laps over Tyler Vikk in Expert Buggy. I might be dumping the K-Cars....its that good!!!

Here are the results

You are very lucky to even be able to race will the big dogs, and place where you did is very hard when you have that kind of competition.

Great job man!

I just got my stuff from A-Main and a bunch of stuff from eBay. Now I just need to grab and SP2 front shock tower and my front end on my Kanai II should be upgraded to a SP2.

Hopefully I will get it all together by this weekend so I can race my 8th scale. Haven't raced it in awhile...
