Default Me Time is going live!

Me Time Productions has a new site and will be doing live webcasts from major racing events. They've already done 2 test webcasts and the next one will be the Indy MBC's Hydro Masters from September 18-20 in Hobart, Indiana. You'll need to sign up and pay $1.00 for access to the webcast but that buck will also give you access to all of the DVD's that they've made over the years. Members can also do their own webcasts as they are planning a Friday night session where anyone can put on their own little show. Your dollar is good for a full year of viewing anything on their site. The content is supposed to be set up so that you can download any of it to your computer. Check out the blooper video of Mike "Grimracer" Zaborowski at the bottom of the home page, funny!
Oh yeah, the site: http://www.metimeliverc.com/
If you watch the webcast from Hobart, you might see my ugly self!

Kerri, you might want to bring some warm clothing along, the weather has been weird up here. It's only 52 right now, more like October than the end of August.
Yes, I've still got that picture of you from Celina. See you there!

Come on Kerri, I saw how the guys were when you were dressed in the shot above, I don't think that most of them could handle you in a bikini! I'm still carrying nitro tablets just in case!
Living about 120 miles away I'm packing for anything from shorts to a winter coat.
What's really great about going live is that people who have never been to a race or raced before will be able to see how it's done from start to finish without editing. There's some of the best racers in the US, Canada and one Frenchman attending.

Ross and others, we're getting really excited about this coming weekend. Mike is going to on the air a lot giving play-by-play. I got warned today that they want to interview me! Why, I don't know.
Kerri might be wearing a bikini but maybe under thermal clothing! The forecasted weather isn't going to be that bad as the mornings will be in the low 50's and highs in the mid-70's with clear skies.
Ross, have you wife watch also as she'll find out that we've all got accents up here on top of the world!
There'll be a chatroom going on during the event and I don't know if the Me Time crew will have enough time to chat as they're usually very busy with everything else.

I should be easy to spot at the event as I'll be wearing my black RCU hat.

Brian, too bad that it's over now. The lake is basically a straight shot right down 51. OK there is a turn or 2 as you have to take the truck route but that will run you right up to the lake.
I just got home from there, what a weekend!!!!!!!!!
Look for pix and vids ASAP.

That dollar will keep you a member for one year. I'm looking forward to the Gas Nat's coming soon.
I didn't know that they were recording the raffle as I won several prizes including what was supposed to be the big one, a Jaguar .67 outrigger hydro! I also got a card of O'Donnell glow plugs, a gallon of O'Donnell 50% nitro and certificates for 2 ABC props. Not bad for $50.00 worth of tickets.
If you watch the last video from Sunday, I'm at 16:09, 21:55 and 30:10.

Todd, seeing how I don't run big-block nitro, I had an offer right away for it. Kevin Sheren swapped me for a NIB RCMK S-254 Evo. He's gotta wait until sometime in January to get the kit. Me, the engine showed up in the mail this morning. I might have gotten the short end a little as I heard thaat the hull goes for somewhere in the neighborhood of $550.00 but Kevin has done a lot for me already wheelin' and dealin'.
Usually in drawings my luck isn't so hot but hey, it was worth the money anyway for the show that was put on. People are going to be typing about this event for a long time! Doug has literally thousands of shots to sort through before those will get uploaded onto their site. He's gonna have a helluva time trying to pick out the best.
The next event on Me Time will be worth watching but I'm waiting for the Gas Nat's webcast!

Hi Ron
i am back from vacation and tryed that receiver tank,( If you remember) it works a treat.
The reciever tank is full and the main tank fuel line blowen back into tank.
So there's enough fuel in the 6cc reciever tank for the engine to start & by the tyme it does,
the exhaust pressurises the main tank and feeds the fuel through to run.
I checked out the pics too"looks great" wish we had a purpose lake for that sort of gig.((USE TO))
Hey whilst im typing  (sort of) to you can you tell me the differance between a surface prop & submersable prop?
STILL WORKING ON IT

Not any difference as to surface and sub-surface props, it's just where they exit. With a surface drive you can spin a larger prop as with a 2-blade, generally one blade is out of the water most of the time.
