No video.. no comp. Just burning day light.. Maybe we can do work and get video at ECC, for both of our threads! Learn to drive and those shocks wouldn't have such a hard life! The best part about this spot.. is the hand rail, up there, and the bike path on the other side of it! Hahaha... | |

No worries.. I finished half a course and Kyle ran it, after the break, with a perfect course! It's a Remedy, even when it's broke, it Remedies that with a perfect score! | |

Hmm.. soooooo,I wasn't so very ready for NEMS! No repeat 1st place, this year, at NEMS... A month or so later and I had a whole 3 more packs on the Remedy! "Ready for NENC!" (Not really).. lol.. This past weekend was NENC and things were feeling good! 1st course, prefect run.. -40 2nd course, perfect run, for what I did. (One bonus was way out and maybe a super could have done it) -30 3rd course.. RIcrawler and myself built.. umm.. not looking so hot! 5-6 finishers and best score was a 10.. yikes! I just rolled with the momentum I was running with and knocked it out! Through gate 5 and all is well.. at gate 6, my teammate M_Energy steps up and spots me thru! The rest was just as clean and finished out with a -30... Time for lunch and things to show down a touch.. kinda liked that momentum and made a dumb mistake on gate 1 of course 4 and a reverse.. -29 Course 5.. second guessed myself. Reversed out and came a different way. Cost myself a gate and reverse.. -29.. Then course 6.. 2 or 3 finishers? I didn't. I wasted too much time on gate 7.. +24.. Going into the finals course, I was sitting in 1st place by 15 points.. By the 3rd driver on course, we noticed a hellashis storm rolling in! Derrick went to run and the storm is moving fast! It's getting Black, winds are kicking up, and lightning is flashing! By this time, everybody is running!! Come on! Come on!!!! At this point I'm rushing to plug my battery in.. Ok, I got power.. Go!!! Gate one.. Dig... Oh shit, no steering!!! (Rushing to plug in, I pulled my Rx wires loose) Touch repo, right off the bat! Ok GO!!!!! I rushed through the course and killed the rest of it! (Minus a boundary and couple reverse) I think I ran the course in 3 minutes, but felt like 90 seconds! By gate 3, I stopped and had to show everybody down.. lol.. I finished and we all headed for the pavilion.. Not 3 seconds later, the drops started hitting the roof.. 30 seconds later, it was a Killer down pour and an Awesome storm!!! If you haven't made it to NENC, you are Missing Out!!!! The comp is nothing short of Amazing! In all aspects!!! Thanks Jslick, for everything you do!!! |
