The first time I raced, in St Louis, My Maxx would not run at all through the qualifiers...
Got it to the main, and it would start, but die after a few feet... Six would follow my truck around the track, and re-start me. There were only 3 Smallblock trucks in the main, but I had to get in a full lap to get a trophy... after about a half lap of Six restarting me, my truck ran it's @$$ off.. took second place...
One day at Leisure, the LST broke before racing started, and the Mach had not been broken in on the Savage. My buddy was there with his savage, so I pulled out his engine, threw it in my truck, and ran... Ran great for the first qualifier, then blew the one-way bearing before the 2nd qualifier. My shock came, when I saw that I ran good enough in the first qual. to make the A-Main, and couldn't run...
Another time, with the LST, I wasn't aware of how bad the LST devoured Rx packs... Made it to the Mains, and the Rx pack dumped on me halfway through the race.
