Default Our Local track's big outdoor race of the year.

Well I placed 6th in the A-Main of the Monster offroad after winning the B-Main and getting bumped up. Not bad considering I wasn't planning on doing that well and their were some good and really serious drivers out there.

Here are some pics. The Kyosho buggy is my brother-in-laws. He finished 8th in the 8th scale buggy A-Main after winning the B-main.





The full lineup shot. At least alll the RC's that showed up on the concorse:

I've never had a problem with my 3.3 TRX engine. Always around 200 and runs good. Always holds a good tune.

I saw you there. Was trying to get your attention but you didn't see me. I saw you run and your hellfire was spinning out like crazy. Heard you one of the lucky ones to get a nice door prize. An Engine. Which was it.

i was soo confused cause everyone was calling me cause i registered late, so i wasnt on any of the lists, and he had to put me in, and i had to run all over, and i had no time to set up the truck, and tune it cause when i got there they were already racing

sorry, next time ill find you.

Not a problem. I figured you got there late cause you weren't there on Saturday for Qualifers and you got their late on Sunday. At least you got the engine.

yea and another reason the firestorm didnt do so hot is cause it is used to being jumped [link=http://img207.imageshack.us/img207/9131/img1405qe2.jpg]off of this[/link] at full speed not around run around a track, it still needs some work on the track

The track has both an Oval and Offroad. I think his hellfire was in the Offroad.
