FIRCC (Plant City)

As I have stated before, I WANT TO RACE THE SC10!!!

The SC10 just has NOT been the SC to race at FIRCC in the past! By the end of practice the diff was gone in the Losi XXX-SCT AGAIN!!!!!

Put the Castle esc and motor in the SC10, changed the tires from the Losi to the SC10 also. Got a couple laps in before the first qual. Qual in 4th, lost both body clips during the second qual about two laps in, stopped to get one clip on so the body wouldn't lift on the jumps. Was only 6 sec's slower in the 2nd qual than the 1st even with the body mount stop!!! SWEET!!!

Missed the A-Main by 6 sec's!!!! S*****d body clips! :-(

Fourth lap into the B-Main driving away from 2nd, a right wheel axle pins broke into three parts. I have my FIRST DNF for the year!!!!

The Losi XXX-SCT will be put on the shelf as I can not keep putting out the $$$$$ for diff/trans rebuilds every two weeks!!!
