Treads Gone Wild summer race series is heating up!

Round 3 of TGW is now in the books, and it’s becoming a very VERY tight series. Two rounds left and unfortunately, I’m in danger of losing my 3rd place standing in the series.

Bryan is how tied with me for third, and he’s brought his A-game, winning last nights A-Main.

I qualified 5th [...]

Evolution of a theme – New race body debuts at “Treads Gone Wild”

With the slow destruction of my old race body, the damage done to the very old temporary body, and the debut of the BRCR Summer Race Series “Treads Gone Wild”, it was high time for a new body. But, time was not on my side, so my original plan of a complex and amusing theme [...]

MooOOoooOOOoOoooo – The Milk Man Delivers!

Oh yeah, what a nice of racing!!!

This is the second outing of the ‘Mooo Mobile‘, drive by me, aka The Milk Man.

Had a good couple of hours of practice, and the truck was running pretty good. Did some baseline laps with the setup from two weeks ago, then I started tweaking the [...]

Short Course Racing Status, January -> April 2011.

BRCR implemented a track change in mid April, so I’ve closed out the previous dataset, and started a new one for updated track.

During that time I also acquired the TLR22 buggy, and sold off the AE B4 (took less than 2 hours to sell, yip!).

So, without yammering on, here is the graph [...]

It’s here! The TLR22. And it’s built!

Ah.. YES! Months of waiting. Reading the press releases. Seeing the sneak-peek spy photos, hearing the team drivers talk about this amazing new car. This (r)evolution in 2wd 1/10th scale RC Racing. Innovation, engineering, a radical remake.

The Hype surrounding this new (model / toy) car was intense! Just read this little blurb from [...]

Expanding Race Fleet – adding more 2WD fun

If you read my post on 28-February, you might recall that I mentioned the purchase of a new 17.5T power kit,

I also said there would be a post about about what I planned to use that in. Well, so maybe I didn’t post up soon, but I am posting about it now. [...]

Converting from Open to Stock Short Course

It didn’t take long for me to figure out that I had A LONG way to go before I belonged running Open Short Course trucks. Even though I had the monster motor in the class with a 7.5T Novak (most other racers were running 10.5T or 13.5T – lower the turns, the faster it spins [...]

Novice SC10 Racing in Review

You never really know anything, unless you measure, at least, something. So, a while back I started to keep track of my lap times recorded during racing.

Now that my NOVICE R/C days are behind me, I thought I’d look back at how long I’ve been racing and how far I’ve come from [...]

Monday Night Racing! 2nd round of racing in the Stock Short Course Class

2nd night of racing in the Stock Class was last night. Turn out was a little down, and there were only 2 Stock class trucks, so we raced with the Open Class Short Courses as well. It was quite a battle. I slowed myself down, just trying to put together clean runs, and my times [...]
