This past saturday, I was the only one from the boards (of the people I know personally) who raced. The whole day I was worried about no one around to pit incase I made the a-main. Luckilly, newguy showed up right before the races, so I lucked out.

My stupid self though, ran a bunch during practice. I squeezed into the a-mains for the first time, so I was pretty happy. 3 laps into the race, my receiver battery dies on me :o! I was so mad. The truck had been running great, no breakage, and this happens.

My Lesson Learned: Charge the batteries before racing!!

How about the rest of you? Ever lose a race to something stupid like forgeting to charge the batteries like I did?
