Dang, now it's a mad dash for the finish line with the super lol. I still need 2 motors, another esc, and 2 bec's. DOH! None of my lhs have the freakin motors in stock. Which brings me off topic...Why in the heck are novak 55's so much more $$ than the integy's? I'm down to the bottom of the wallet building these things lol |

Just last week the RT 72 location was closed near the rocks. We had to go to the Main Dam off of Arlington Hts Rd to crawl. | |

Lets see... I finished second last comp with crappy small tires... Now I have kick butt tall tires. Plus, your truck will most likely catch on fire | |

Yeah I'm ready for this comp. My super is still a parts pile though. I decided to do away with the dual Outrunner brushless setup. Outrunner cans would snag on rocks and stall. Which at Busse I guess it doesn't matter because you almost never snag on rocks. J/K If I get motors ordered for it I'll bring it. I don't feel Integy motors are up to snuff though. I mean it would be a replica of my bergs powertrain spinning tires twice as big. After buying a lift kit for my Xterra I'm short on cash at the moment. But, I do have my eyes on Holmes handwounds. | |

Son of a biatch. I gotta work. Mandatory overtime AT STRAIGHT PAY! I'm so pissed I'm sick. I've been busting ass getting this super ready and now my stupid work screws me over. I told them I had plans and they said if I don't show I better have a new job lined up. |

Yea, I'm my own worst enemy. That and all things electrical lol When it's my turn for some reason I start shiking so bad I think I'm gonna drop the stinkin controller. Like it's my first time. When I'm out on my own, I have no probs but my brain is weird. Maybe a little too much welding fumes. | |

yea we hear that everyday. We're hurting bad they say. Then they tell everyone we HAVE to work a 60 hour week next week cause we are so behind. I think it's all a bunch of bs. They use the economy as a excuse so they don't have to give raises or anything.
