Mann's RC (Ruskin, FL)
For retiring for full time RC racing, I sure am racing MORE!!!!
===
GT2-E
Bobby took it to me every qual and in the main!!!!
2nd 3 laps back from Bobby!!!
===
TC4
Odd wheel day, just the start of the day!! Left front came off during the 2nd qual, then the righ front came off during the main!!!! One of the thing I check before going out per race is the nuts that hold the tires on. Never found the 1st nut, found the 2nd, NO threads in it!!!
Started 4th finish 7th of 8!!!
===
Spec-R S2
TQ'd both qual's, figured IF everything went right another VTA class win is in the books. :-)
2nd and 3rd got by me in turn two, was just a foot behind 1st and 6 inches behind the 2nd as we went under the timing loop. Moved to the right to pass both of them AND >>>> NASCARED the wall for 20 foot, taking the right front wheel and hub off!!!!!
===
SC10GT-E
Some how the timing got screwed up, during both qual!!! Had lapped every one at least two times and I didn't get the TQ!!!!!
Go at the tone, DID and was gone!!! Lapped every one again and the timing WORKED!!!
===
Had not planned to race until 12/26/2015 at Newred in Ocala, BUT!!!!
Got a PM the Chris (owner of Mann's RC) had fell while cutting some tree limbs at off road track. Report >> back broken in 3 places, ribs broken, lung punctured and a concussion. All this happen am morning of 11/30/15. Because of injuries, he had open heart surgery 12/3/15 and came through fine.
Chris is one of the GOOD guys of RC!!!!!
