Lil' Dover SC
My step-son Tom went with me to race off road for the first time. He has ran off road RC's before, just in the yard or driveway never on a race track! He did well 4th in 2wd Ele truck, he got to watch me TQ and finish 1st in that class.
Richard and I were fender to fender for about 4 minutes in the Open Ele SC class for 1st, then the motor pinion on my car let loose. Still had enough laps to finish 6th out of 9 cars.
As the starter called "GO" in Nitro SC, I pulled the trigger and my SC-GT2 took off, literally it took off, the battery pack died and the throttle stuck wide OPEN!!!!!!!!!!!! A fellow racer grabed it and shut the motor down!!! Still got a 5th :-) out of five cars!!!
