2008 RC-Monster Bash Info

[Finnster]

As said, I didn't have a chance to bring my trucks, but I was in town so I went over w/ a vid camera anyway, and got a lot of it on tape (when I wasn't marshalling and slipping in the mud.) I'll get some vid up when I get a chance, but it may take me a bit.

It was a cool but tough truck. Dave Mac (MacII) was kicking ass most of the day, TQ'd and led a lot of the laps in the mixed MT class and the BL truggy class. Sadly he had probs w/ both trucks late in the race and went out on both. Poor Dave, his luck doesn't hold up at the Bashes. At least someone can give Mike a good run for his money. ;)

It was nice seeing you who I'd met before, and meeting those I'd only met here. I'll be back with my trucks next time lol.

Good to see you again Ryan...thanks for the kind words, I honestly think there is some kind of curse on me at the Barn...happens all the time, great qual rounds and then something dies in my truck during the main. The funny thing is that I've been racing weekly at a small local track and I don't think I have one DNF this whole season. Then I get two in one day - crazy. Regardless it was a really great track - perhaps the best layout I've ever raced on. I LOVED the triple, and all the other parts. Super fun. While it was totally insane running in that much mud, I have to say that it was even more fun to slide the truck around the corners. I felt like I was drifting at times.

My damage seems to be a BEC related MMM death and oddly enough, a Nomadio Transceiver which I've had for years!

If anyone (hint hint Mike C!) wants to race at a very Electric friendly track, consider coming down to Pin Shop in Oakville CT, we race every Saturday, sign up is 1pm, racing starts at 2pm. Small crowd but there are a number of E-Revo's and a few 1/8th conversions.

Now I've got to put the titans back in the E-Revo...what a let-down that's going to be! I'm sending my Monster to Mother Castle with a note asking for them to hold it till the v3's are out...I want to get off this roller coaster.
