I'm ready for it...except for the stickers. Had some issues in not finding the correct media to make them waterproof, so we won't have any for this comp. But I promise that I'll have some for the next one. Looks like it's going to be just Tony and I coming from JC. Steve and Tyler both work at Von Hoffman and have to work on Saturday. |

ya you lucky bastard! The only cool part is I met some cool jeepers and got a tranny rebuild, engine tuneup, plugs, wires, hoses, balance and rotate, and breaks. I would have much rather spent the money on some new 33's or a trip to my first comp, buy like Stan's dad Randy says "what ya gonna do?" |

Bring extra crystals if you have them. I was thinking of doing some sort of check in so we'll know if there are any conflicts. There should only be one or two trucks running at a time, but it would not make anyone happy to have their truck zip off the cliff and end up in pieces 50 feet below. I'm running channel 76 AM.

I'm running Channel 82 75mhz AM. Is that going to conflict with you, John? I'm not familiar as to whether there's a frequency conflict between AM and FM of the same frequency? Unfortunately, that's the only crystal set that I own. So, if it does pose a conflict, could someone bring a set of 75 AM crystals for me to borrow?

Greg, I have a set of 80mhz AM crystals I'll bring. You did have a Futaba radio correct?

if the frequencies overlap, I will just use my spektrum and switch the reciever around. No biggie.

Yeah, I've got a Futaba. I guess that IS the beauty of having a Spektrum.
