SS Hobbies and Raceway (Tampa, FL)
Race 4 of 10 Series
Track opens at 10:00am NOT!!! Track prep started at 10 finished around 11:15!
Racing started around 12:30.
With the above I should have known that today was NOT going to be nice!!!!

RC10B4.1
First qual was a bit rough with all the NOVICES in the class, 2nd was better.
The MAIN SUCKED!!!!!!!! Lap two, turn five nosed into the pipe and as the marshals fingers was just inches from assisting me another buggy got into the pipe. The marshal STOPPED assisting me, got the other buggy going then finished with me! Now I'm down 4 more places!!!!!!
1st passed me about a lap later. Lap 6 found out I was 7th of 9. Stepped on the gas, worked up to 5th at the finish.

SC10
Every qual and the main, it was run into what ever moved near you by other racers. was hit three times in one lap by three diff racers during the main!!!!! Four turns from the finish a racer that I had passed three times choose to jump over the tabletop at full power in to my side on purposes (seems to me) rolls me on to my top and drove away!!! Finished 4th just like I qual'd.
===
RC10GT2-E
ALL the racers in this class drove like they know what they are doing, the marshals not so much!!!!! During the 2nd qual, I was on my 3rd pipe hit in seven laps in the same place!!!!! Yes, I know my bad. BUT the marshal, this time, ran cross the track to marshal his buddy leaving me againest the pipe another marshal had to leave his spot to assist me. I parked the GT2-E with a minute left in the qual!!!
The main CLEAN racn' for 7 minutes!!! SWEEEEET 2nd place finish.

IF it had been a club weekend of racing all the above would have been a lesser deal BUT it was a POINTS series race and all the BAD marshals AND bad racers came out to play!!!!!!!!!!
Don't know yet how many points I lost to these jerks!!!!
