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 [...]

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 [...] 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 [...] Ah.. YES! Months of waiting.

Class 2 – Stock Stadium Truck, Stock Buggy, Open Stadium Truck, Open Buggy. [...] Photos of my new SC10 body in progress, along with the final result.

Masked and ready for paint: Body masked for the first stage of painting (main color) Primary color applied. This silver [...] Monday night was another great time down at Bremerton Radio Control Raceway. On the heels of the 4 hour Enduro race just 2 days before, turnout was pretty light for a Monday night. In fact, there really wasn’t enough depth in each field to run the normal Novice, Stock and Open class for each vehicle [...] This past Monday, I took the plunge and ran my first full race with the re-bodied SC10 truck. SC10 truck in the pits during Monday Races at Bremerton RC Raceway. It was a real blast, but I have A LOT to learn about truck setup before I’m going to be competitive. The most challenging [...] I took a few shots of some UAVs at the Museum of flight, for my friends on the Radio Control forums.
