Nice job guys, it looks great! Broke the DF last week, so I'm in scramble mode to find or make a replacement part. Should have one done this week though.

I was out there Monday after work with the EXO, and will stop by with the Trophy Truck tonight. It got me to thinking though. Would HT allow us to have one event there? The track is pretty big, but with some bridges to go over the track barriers, any configuration could be made without disrupting their layout. Just a thought.

I'm sure they would, the track stays open after the race season is over, they just don't maintain it. With man made bridges and maybe some man made jumps, I don't see us impacting the race track any. The only thing we would need to do, obviously, is let them know a time and date so they could let those who use the track for practice that we will be there holding an event.

I'm also sure with a little word of mouth at the store, we could possibly attract some more followers.

I can still offer a tarmac based race day if needed here at my shop in Greeley.

I need to go practice, where exactly is HOON 470? Thanks.

[TURTLE]

C470 and Morrison road.

Take Morrison road west towards the town of Morrison, turn left on to soda lakes rd (right across the street from the conoco). Park in the dirt lot on the right or the dirt lot on top of the hill on the left. Walk east past the big BMX jumps along Bear Creek. The track is in the meadow just to the east of the big BMX jumps. Please do not drive on the BMX jumps. we have a good understanding with those guys, "we don't mess with their jumps and they don't mess with our track".

Hope that makes sense. Rodney and I were out tearing the track up today, the track is running pretty good right now. Nice and technical.

[The Green Bastard]

Cool. I know of those jumps. Thanks.

I am going to head out to HOON470 in the next couple hours if anyone is interested in coming out and burning a few batteries.

Great video I love the Lancia Stratos.

[TURTLE]

That was amazing and head phones and the volume turned up is the only way to hear it.

All hail Lancia!

Funny guy. Its the one other company I really respect for its racing heritage. I still like Subaru more, hell I'm close to getting a Subaru tattoo... A Lancia one would look good next to it.

[STEW<CO>]

Looks good Ty.

[BasicMods]

Sound Awesome!!! Count me in. We can have is at my place if you want. Let's try for some time in June???
I just ordered a light kit from Rally Legends RC for the Fiat 131 body I just won, let see what $25 will get me. Ty said its 2 head lights, 2 break lights and front & rear turn signals. I Like the rally light setup Ty has but the Fiat body is way to boxy for it. I am also thinking about ordering a roof mounted light bar to help light the way, maybe RC4WD 4" light bar???
