Quaker Steak and Lube  (Clearwater, FL)

Things worked out to race three classes!!! :-)

RC10GT-E

Was able to TQ both qual's BUT had the wrong rear tires on for the main! Didn't watch the weather (air and track temperature) was able to finishes 3rd.

XXX-S

Had changed to to a 17.5 setup for Vantage Trans Am class with a Mustang body. VTA class is limited to a 25.5 motor. During practice, trimmed the throttle setting to 100% to best match the speed of the other VTA's

Didn't have the correct tires, was able to finish 4th. Not bad for the first VTA race for me.

TC4

Was able to get some 32R tires (5 sets for $40) so I'm set for a few weeks of Mod Tour class. :-)

 TC4 ran just SWEEEET! Qual'd 4th, was able to stay with 1st (he was racing a X-ray), for about 4 laps then he was GONE!! A 2nd worked well in this class.
