Slayden had 4 sec./lap on the track and got 9 laps to Mikes 8. Mike is good by all means, but you guys should see Slayden in action...dude is crazy good. He was pulling off passes on offcamber sections with only a 15" wide path...most people struggled to make it through it, he was passing in it.

Thats what you call precision driving skill. I have done some pretty hairy passes myself at a local track (very tight, small track built for 1/10 Buggies and ST's - and I drive my G2R on it!).

The key is to not get nervous - and he obviously doesn't. That is usually what seperates the best from the rest - they can keep their cool in the craziest of situations.

I've pulled off a pass by literally drifting around the outside of a high speed, but sharp turn. One mistake and my truck would have been into a concrete wall at well over 30mph. However, I kept my cool and it came out fine. After a few laps, I tried to do the same thing - got nervious right as the turn started and spun out (broadsided the wall, busted my front left rockerpost on my G2R)... This was all during practice though, since I need a personal transponder. :007:

Its kind of rediculous actually...between the truck, batteries, and other support equipment, I have about $3500 invested...but I can't seem to get a ~$100 transponder... :031: :035: :019:
