Since we are all talking about power plants and we are only a couple of days from race day I figured I should show one of my rig power plant

I present to you my 1.9 racer
I call this rig "Spare parts Sleeping Honcho"

Old Honcho on the outside


Tekin RX8 with a 1/8 scale T8 2650 big boy motor sensored brushless system, can you see the MIP drive line frowning from the beating they will be getting from the pull of my trigger finger. lol

Crazy Inside

We are crazy. We are G6'ers. We are going to have a great time. Look out racing world, scalers are the tuff truck of the track. I would like to a buggy keep up with an scx10. Hold on, keep up, I'm dreaming. Stay together for a lap is more like it!!!

Two days and a wake up, sir and your wettest dreams may flood your pit station!!!!

Bring the rally cars out. I've seen some cool Colorado rally stuff & would like to see them on a "Parkerized" track conditions.

It might be like putting a green machine in with a bunch of big wheels, but I'm all about the racing!!!

More like, when will they close. This is pure supercross style track set up. Traction Raceway has Friday night races that last until 11 or 12pm. The G-Crew will then transform the track into a RECON G6 Terra-X track for Saturday. After the Terra-X, it's tear down and get ready for Sunday racing at Traction.

Woot Woot!!!

Doors should be open by 0900hrs.

OH MY! I'm getting giddy.

I can't wait for the first "tone" to drop and the first ever indoor RECON Terra-X is under way!!!

Dan W., what's under your skirt? Thong Depends???

Opps, my bad. What's under "The Wraiths" skirt???



I'm going to give you the "Terra-down" on my predicitions.

The RECON Terra-X 1.9 Class -

This is the toughest class because of tire to horse power ratio and the sheer excitment of close racing. Nerves will be an issue as drivers battle the track and each other, but the driver who excels in technical areas may get swallowed up in the straights by the brushless systems. So I'm going to go with the 2012 Axialfest Terra-X Champion, Skeeno.


The RECON Terra-X 2.2 Class -

It should be an obvious choice, as Dan W. and The Wraith have built a reputation of dominance. Even through adverity, but I have to go with the hungry IFS rig of frdtrkguy. But you can't rule out two of the most experienced Wraith drivers on the Planet; Cushdog & Madtrouter. Their knowledge of their Wraiths in all types of conditions make them a real threat. This class is going to be pure adrenalinized racing at its most inner core for podium thirst.



The Go-Phast Class is up in the air for me. The 2012 Axialfest Exo Terra Buggy Champion, Ty@Tekin would be a solid pick, but I'm not sure if this dog is in the hunt. Nissan_driver could handle the speed and flight time, so he would be be a front runner. My obvious pick would be Team TWERK Driver and Big Island Banana Hammock Model, DTP, but due to a photo shoot for the upcoming transparent testes tamer line of thongs, he can't make it. So I'm going to have to go with Brokennib. His Exo Terra Buggy is BAD! His driving prowess is as agessive as Danica Patrick's divorce attorney. So DO Work, Mr. Goris!


The SC 2wd/4wd is wide open. If Josh Harris was here, he would be in it to win it and the odds on favorite. From the South and faster than a opposum on oppiates, Josh would tame the RECON Terra-X. I am going to have to go with any home town hero for the win. There are not many California SC racers in the line up and I am sure it's a fear factor thing. Maybe more tarmac with less speed bumps would comfort them, but this is a RECON Terra-X, not your preeeety little pre-runner with glass front end and a squatty rear with 22's that you take to the grocery store.

A Nevada "real man" short course driver for the win in each class!!! Unless those fast chicks show up from LSR. Oh my! I think they might "WOW" themselves for a podium sweep!


See ya in a day and a wake up!!!!

As usual Parker you seem to forget one of TEAM TWERK's best drivers! Unibomber and his R&D Fab class 7 truck should not be taken lightly!!! His rig ain't no Cali Grocery Getter Wannabe, it's a pure Nevada Desert G6 Stage Slayin' MACHINE!!!

Skeeno is a good driver and I know you are "Teacher's PET" but give it a rest, how many "apples" can you give him before he keeps you after class to practice your "DICKTATION"?!?!
