Good to see all of you guys again. My truck ran like chit but it's all good. (The only thing that really got to me was someone getting on my channel during my main sendin me into the pit wall and then WOT the wrong way on the back straight) Oh well... I may be out next week. Not sure yet... dad gets kind of pissed when I am gone all day for some reason...??

Did you see that Spektrum is releasing a DX2 radio for $169.00? It's a 2 channel version of the DX3 and may be just the thing you need to eliminate mishaps like today. Horizon has them listed on thier site if you want more info.

Yeah... I think it is time. That really got to me today. Nothing like seeing that nice new .21 rip with nothing you can do but watch sonny chase it down... Good thing he's quick on his feet...

I saw that. It's a good thing the a main gas truck guys were out there for ya. Guys like sonny have been driving for many many years and seen it all. They won't hesitate to chase down and pounce on a runnaway to get it shut down. Had there been noobs out there, the chances they would do the same thing that fast would have been much less. I know when I saw my first runnaway at the track I was like what the hell do I do know? Someone else jumped in and took care of it :o:

Thats pretty good id say. I havent ran that thing in ages. Must be the paint job making it fly around the track. And bumping to the A main with the 10th. I felt like a pace car with those fast guys. Thats were I got my "move over" practice.:wavey:

thats your engine problem right there. 2 feet is more then enough for fuel line. 20 feet is way to much.

I can tell that's dan's truck because of the side pipe and the OS.21 head.
