It was a pleasure to finally meet (and race) with the "Nitro Tour Crew". It seemed as though they were hosting us at times- loaning parts and cars, sacrificing their set up time to help us. Great group of people. I hope to run again next year. Craig- Thanks for all the help today!! I never thought that Picco would see a flame again (I'll change fuels).

Man....What these guys do to get their cars runnin right...I even saw someone throw theirs on the ground and stomp on it to get it to work right....LOL.Thanks to Craig for lettin me run his extra EDM car...How about those tires Craig?? http://www.dirtoval.com/ubb/biggrin.gif We look forward to seein you guys up again next year!

I jujst wanted to thank Dave Lawrence and his crew for the fantastic job they did at hosting the Nitro Series.

All I can say is Wow! I had a fantastic time on Sunday. It was a pleasure meeting the great bunch of guys from Chicago. Just like Rooster said, amany times they sacrificed their set up time to help other racrers. My special thanks also goes out to one of the best racers I've ever met - Craig. Not only did he help me tune my car, he also gave me some desperately need fuel.

I even got to see my old friend Roy "The Living Legend" Moody. He looked great and was very competitive. Great to see you again Roy!!!!

Hope the guys from Chicago had a safe trip back to their homes.

Thanks

it was nice to finally meet all of you...i am always glad to help anyone that needs it (and is willing to work with me...LOL)..

hope all the 'lectric' fellas had a good time runnin the nitro cars... thanks for the setup help....maybe i'll bring some extra hands next year....5 cars is a bit too many....

lets get the nitro EDM's a regular class out there....you guys already have a couple to start with....

i am pretty damn tired now...thinking 8 o'clock sounds like a pretty good bedtime...

hope we can do it again...

craig
btw....we all went to see bearfoot bob win his 300th at weedsport(tho i don't think that tim hung it ALL out on the last lap...LOL....the track conditions were perfect...)

[g_rod22x]

hey Craig...glad to see you are home and safe...thank you for the ride on sunday...had a few solid runs....hope i didnt bend it up in the main...will they be running those cars at the PA race?...later GR

[shrttrackr]

hey GRod

yep they will....but...their rules only allow for a STOCK CW narrow probe body...no side damns...so we are building new bodies to go out there....definitely worth it if you want to come....it is a great track...plus there will more than likely be over 100 cars there....

let me know if you want to go...i'll have a car for you...(a bigger moto as well...cuz the track will take anything you thro at it....LOL)

Roger said they also run Gas Trucks there. I might consider running the XXXNT as a truck for the event. I'd definetely have enough gear with Bowties on it. Break out that GT g_rodd!!

[rcer6x]

Craig,
Thanks for the ride....it was a lot of fun. I hope you had a good time too. Can you run foams in PA or do you have to have spikes?

Terry

[shrttrackr]

corey

bring the car as is....you'll be quick...i ran the edm that goober drove at PA and was extremely fast....almost broke the track record....

terry

you have to run rubber tires in PA....there rule says no foam tires...i am going to take my whole stable of rubber tires there.. and i am going to make some new...i have a couple sets from when i was there last year...the tires that i had working the best last year were buggy bow-ties over truck rims...with wide blade buggy tires on the front...i think you can get the CW front tires to work as well...

i heard that you had started building a gas edm but have not finished yet...is this true?

craig

[rcer6x]
