Ok, obviously anything I say will be observed as 'taking a shot'. For some reason my opinion here has always been so.

I don't plan to go to LHR and run to Bernie with complaints when I see something wrong. I will however walk up to the drivers stand and run my truck without the need of the frequency issue in the future.

if you have a complaint why don't you go to the lhr website and post on their forum. bernie seems to visit that more often, and can answer your complaint or question directly.

RC Dad, get used to it. Having an opinion other than the commonly shared one is considered unacceptable in these parts.

PS. I now see what these little red/green dots mean. Ohhhhh, did I hurt someone's feelings by having an independent thought? I'm so glad to see that freedom of thought and speech is alive and well in the midwest. I now am seeing how Hitler got into power.

Also, we have to keep in mind that today was a RACE day. I'm sure that had a lot to do with any problems that may have been encountered. From what I understand, there were people there from quite far away, and tuning is a bigger issue when traveling a distance. What might be a perfect tune here (Chicagoland area) may be way off from settings people are running in Southern Illinois, or Indianapolis area. Humidity differences, Temperature differences, etc.

For the time that I was there today, the racing was quite good. I stuck around through most of the firtst qualifying heats. There was a Big turnout. I think there were 5 Buggy heats, 2 Stadium truck heats, 2 Unlimited heats. and 2 or 3 MT heats. Racing started around 11:15, and I left at 1:20 and there was still one more MT qualifier for the first round.

Yeah Hilter and r/c not reaching much on that one are ya..... What a joke.

ROCCO...

QUICK................
PUT THE NYQUIL DOWN and call 911

Your Hallucinating dude!


Of all the LH posts ANYWHERE.............there isnt ONE that takes a shot at the LH FACILITY

A nice track, heated stands, flushing toilets and a hobby store nearby alone, will NEVER make or break a track.......... if the people that USE that facility give a rats a$$ only about themselves and their close circle of buddies.

Read it again slowly..... I said ..................the people that USE the track.


Take a trip and leave the farm, visit a few more tracks. Some offer far less niceities and can be just as much, if not more FUN...................A building or track by itself itself is but stone, dirt, and or metal. That same building or track will not by itself make or break a FUN day of racing.

Jims place in Bolingbrook, Radioactive Raceways was a classic example.
TINY indoor track..........what was it 60 or70 X 30 or 40?

No Air cond......a barely flushing toilet.........and the winters heat was supplied by body heat at times. A "hobby shop" on site that would take up a small corner of the new LH Bathrooms.

40-50 a Sunday would cram into THAT place and have FUN with RC cars. There was NO track in the area that was more FUN to run at........................for EVERYONE



And WTF?

What a class act YOU are bud

FWIW.

I was at the track today too. From what I heard the total entries were at or very near 100.

100 Entries for a CLUB race!

And as USUAL……the RACE DAY ran like a well oiled machine thanks in big part to this guy……….all in stride



HA!
(Bernie, reason #37 why momma always told you not to pick your nose in public…………..you never know when some a$$ with a camera is gonna take your picture )

Heres a few more Pix

Good God! Look at that pit room!!! I had better get there really early for the trophy race. Too bad I had to blow up the rear wheel on my bike or I would have had enough cash for Mike Czech to paint me a body. (I will be heading your way shortly)

(And Teamt Triple Threat... I have some blow-off days for finals this week so I plan on working on the logo... then Tommy can iron. LMAO)

And is it just me or does the track look a lot drier (AKA mor eloose) than last week?? (I wasn't there as you can tell. Had to work...)

those two are some of the action pics that i have ever seen so far lol

The track was real wet IMO, I was slipping and sliding out there dodging cars

I got there at like 5 till 8 and there were about a half dozen cars waiting. Some people had their gear sitting right outside the door.

It sure was much colder and windy there than it is where I live.

Track was hooked up, traction was normal. Of course as the day goes by the track always dries a little but it's never "dry"

I wanted to say thanks to the Leisure Crew for a good time as always. Bernie, Mike and John you guys rock. =)

Some good racing yesterday. Conrats to Slim on making the A-main. Go X-ray !!!!! Congrats to all the winners.. Sonny O, man that LSP rips dude.

Thanks Chris (Sh1nn3r) for the great job helping me pit all day even tho I knew you had to get your stuff ready for your heats..... much apprecaited dude. Thanks again.

101 entries for a club race. WOW !!! Not sure if the LH crew expected such a huge turn-out, but a smooth running show none the less.

Looking forward to next week's Trophy race !!!!!


Thanks again Mike and Bernie, you have a top notch facility !!!!!!
