Badass! I'm uploading the few pics I got right now.

We really need to try and take more time to get pics. Maybe if a couple of us weren't always on the edge of a lake we wouldn't have to focus so hard on our driving.

Lol, yeah trying harder lines is definately taking time away from the camera. Making us better drivers though.....

I was obsessed with that one line I found while you were talking to the park guys. I think I went up it like ten times.

Practice makes perfect....lol. Little hard for my 1.9's.
I figured out its definately an issue with the Savox Servo causing brown out when I attempt to turn. Just have to hook the CC BEC back up and redo my wiring. Oh well, another complete tear down before the next comp is probably a good idea anyways.

Went home and let Joey run his Stampede around in front of the house. He is definately into driving with me. So hopefully he can handle something like the RidgeCrest and drive along with me in the Wraith.

Im also gonna start looking into getting a GoPro Camera for our excursions. Maybe I can trade one of my other rigs or something.

Nice! Good to hear he is getting into it! How old is he again? I got into it when I was around 8 or 9. Built my first kit at 10 and was hooked.

Can't wait to see the RidgeCrest - been looking at videos and stuff of it for a while now. Always cooler to see them in person.

Don't trade one of your cars for one just for our meets man. But...if you really want to...it would make for a sweet POV video.

Completely blew a bead on that rear tire but haven't done anything aside from blow the rig off. Didn't have time today. Will hopefully get the bead reseated and rear axle bearings regreased tomorrow.

Waiting to see what Mr. Holmes wants to do about getting the motor leads put on this motor. Hopefully he'll just send me another one and I'll ship this one back to him. Either way, I'm stoked for this motor/ESC combo.

Also still shopping for the universals and such...going to try and sleep on it for a day and see how I feel about it. Won't be able to go crawling for a few weeks anyway so that will help me really make sure it's something I want to do.

Alright guys - my move is just about done so I'm ready to get out there and test out my new BR-XL and TorqueMaster Pro.

I think AILD said he and his son were down for this Sunday. Anybody else? Earlier is better. We usually get there a little before 9am to beat the heat and humidity.

Post up if you're in! I'm going either way.

Sweet! Can't wait to see your rigs. It will be nice to meet you too.

Sweet! I'm pretty much 100% waterproof now. The stock servo is the only thing not waterproofed but I'm honestly kind of hoping it dies...just not while I'm in the middle of a run.

Hey just so you know you won't be able to use the New battery. It has banana plug ends, needs to be switched over to deans.

I'll bring the axle part for you and let you run one of my LiPos for the day.....I do have a few, lol.

I'll be there. Can't say I'll be there by 8:30am as I am going to be up late tonight working on the Man Cave, but I will be out there by 9am or so.

AILD,

Will you shoot me a text when you're laving your house?

See you guys there!
