Yuper RC (Lakeland, FL)
B4.1
Did NOT have the tires to fit the track but a 4th still isn't bad!!!! :-)
Sc10
Have a MRT transponder in the SC10, Yupers timing system listed me as someone else during first qual. Worked well during the next two qual's.
Lined up 6th of 6 for the 10 minute main, by turn 4 was in 2nd, just a few minutes later 1st broke and I drove away for the win, lapping the whole field, SO I THOUGHT!!!
Timing system choose to NOT count 3 of my laps, finished 3rd. Pointed out the timing error to the race director, was basically told it was my problem cause I have a MRT transponder!!!!!!!
They are on my "No Race" list now!!!!!

FZRC (Sarasota, FL)
B4.1
Changed the motor gear to a 32 from a 30 for the race last week at SS. NOT a good thing for FZ! New motor over heated during the first qual, about 8 laps in.
Changed to the Reedy 3300 motor and ESC for the rest of the races. Set the gearing to AE manual spec's 21/81. B4.1 ran faultless for a 2nd behind a B5.
===
SC10
Only change from SS was the top front shock placement, in to hole "0". Some Red Dot on the tires and I'm ready to race! Matt and I got into a rub and bump to the point 1st and 2nd ran away from us!!! Matt hit a pipe and I was GONE!!!!!! For a 3rd.
