MT RACING Questions ??? - 11-09-2004, 01:13 PM

Hi all, New guy here and I have a few questions for Saterday MT Racing.
Whats the latest I can get there and still have time to get rdy. 5PM?. What time do most of you show up?
What happens if your truck dies or runs out of gas? Are you able to restart or are you done for that heet.
And if you do break down, am I able to run another truck? I have 3 trucks, would like to race the revo but arms and rod/shock ends seem to break easily. My next choice would be the savage. I think if I couldnt change I would have to run the savage from the start because, well it just wont break.
Thanks for the timeand see you all on wends/thurs.
Kevin

if you die or run outa gas you can restart it and go if you have enough time. you cant substitute during a heat or race but he may let you inbetween heats. And i wouldnt bother racing the savage imo because its to much of a basher to be able to race good. The one race i went to it was all revo's in the top spots followed but a supermaxx and then some big blocks. Make sure you get the new updated shock ends or you can get some aluminum ends at neweramodels.com. If your breaking a-arms i would say stop hitting stuff with them lol jk. 5 is when im gonna show up this saturday. Definatly no later then 5. Most people will be getting there around 3-4 to set up and get some last minute practicing in. Hope to see you there.

How can you say a Savage is not a good racer ? When set-up right, I'm sure a Savage will out-run your Revo. I've seen some Savages run at Leisures track and do pretty damn good. Jeez man have an open mind.

well ive never seen a savage actually racing so im just saying that from what ive seen. Im sure the savage can race but i have yet to see one actually get around the track really fast. I hope people bring out the savages and have them set up right. The more people there the better tho. and i have an open mind because theres nothing in it, sheesh lol.

I've seen a few fast savages, my own included.

All the revo owners better look out when the rebuild is done on my truck

hehe. There is a guy "duwayne" (sp?) that always practices on saturdays with his Savages (and other RC's) . I am sooo glad he doesn't race us with his Savy, he would kill us. He gets around that track like wiping his own ass, it's easy for him. He would absoloutly beat all of us. I asked him why he doesn't race and he said " I don't know, just don't want to" he leaves right before the heats start. We definitely benefit from him leaving, he would spank us.

At Camp Maxx in STL a guy name Kit (LakeMaxx on showmerc) wins every BB MT race......with a Savage.

If I had a Revo, Savage and whatever else MT I would race the Revo most likely. That truck make bad drivers look decent. (IMO)

I think my Savage can get around the track pretty good... I haven't been racing on saturday's because I work but if I could I would be there every saturday to race. Maybe we should set something up on dec 6. We can have some REVO and Savages go head to head.

I wish duwayne would race because by racing people better then you it is actually the best practice IMO. I bet by the end of the racing season we would all be a lot better just from racing him. il go against anything but il probly loose because i havent been driving as long as most people. I really dont care but ya i say december 6th we can do something like that. its all for fun with me .

Sounds cool. We did that last year as our clubs first event was open to everyone and we gave away about $800 worth of raflles. We are planning another one tha last weekend in January on Saturday. This will be an open event as it stands now.

You guys should have fun, we should still try and set up some club vs club stuff fo rfun and the loser pays for the pizzas...

Mich's Revo against a Savage???? Looks like I need to get some practice in, but I'm up for that. And I've been driving a lot less than he has, so that's not an issue.
