Mann's RC (Ruskin, FL)

===

GT2-E

TQ'd Jato class, finished 2nd.

===

SC10GT-E

Adult SC class (two kids in Novice SC) Rob came to race and TQ'd both qual's and was leading the main by about a 1/3 of a lap. Then a racer we both had lapped 2-3 times took Rob out and I was by for the win!!!

===

XXX-S

Totally SUCKED!!! Every time turning left the steering would lock for a bit. Didn't know what I was going to do for the main! I was just in the way of the other racers.

Walked by the racers sale table, have a Spec-R S2 now.

Rob gently pushed me into moving the electrics from the XXX-S to the Spec-R S2 (his bad!!!). Only took 15 minutes to make the change.

Lined up for the B-main, by turn two had a 20 foot lead on 2nd, finished 4 laps in front of 2nd. Went to the pits changed battery for the A-main. Go at the tone, brakes where set to high and RC would spin out when applied. Drove carefully for 8 minutes for a 5th place finish.

Broke the right front out drive two laps from the finish, RC pulled hard left under power. Parts should be here by Friday, so it can be raced at "da Lube" Saturday!!!
