Track crew (I'm one of the crew) was a bit slow at getting the track prepped today!! Wasn't until the 2nd round of qualifying that the track was ready!!

Raced "Stock Short Course" pushed the 1st place qualifier and winner most of the night BUT could never catch him!!! So I finished 2nd :-)

Was placed in 4wd buggy with the J82, there was two 4wd buggies, two 2wd buggies and 2 gas trucks in the main. Finished 4th over all, 1st 2wd buggy!

Track was ODD! High traction but slippery!!! Wish someone made "Hole Shot" style wheels for Short Course class.

Did qualify 1st in Mod SC BUT finished 3rd after a multi lap fight with two other racers.

Pulled the J82 off the shelf, they put me and two other 2wd buggy racers in the 4wd class. Qualified 4th , 2nd 2wd buggy in class, finished 5th over all, 3rd in 2wd buggy, Mike Sage got his buggy tuned and out ran me!!! :-)

Plan to race "Stock" Short Course next week so out comes the Tekin 10.5 brushless motor and a 17 turn brushed motor in it's place.

Another GREAT night of racn' under the lights at Farmers Hobby and Raceway. Track was very sweet!!!

Qualified 4th in Mod SC, about 4 minutes into the 10 minute main my spur gear got "Old" no teeth!!!! So I finished 9th :-)

Gas truck qualified 2nd, thought the track was in a condition to use Proline Hole Shot tires on the rear, total waste no traction went back to JConcepts GooseBumps was able to keep 2nd place all he way to the end.
