2/5/11

Lil' Dover SC (Sefner, FL) >>>> RAINED OUT!!!! :-(

BUT :-)

Richard, Steve, Javier and I decided to go over to the carpet track in Plant City, FL (Florida Indoor R/C Complex). Steve and Javier, THR's two newest members, have never seen OR raced on a carpet track. Richard has watch me race there. About 70 minutes into the afternoon, started doing "racing" classes! :-) Turn and jump theory, with application.

During the "classes", we did some "Slash" truck setups to Richards and Javier SC's. Most where learned way back when Short Course racing came to Farmers Sept/Oct 2008. Man, I some times forget that I'm THAT old and was at Farmers the night we seen a Traxxas Slash for the first time!!!

Richard and Javier after 3 - 4 batteries where turning laps only 3 - 4 tenth of a second slower then me.

Steve tried some setup changes to his Blitz, then did a couple laps better than me by 2 tenths!!!

Richard and Javier wondered if the new setups would work on clay tracks also! The only change needed will be tires to fit the track surface.

Time spent with friends AND Team Members is priceless!!!!!
