April 27th My 3rd Race

Well, it turned out to be a nice day. Weather got into the lower 70's and the cars were fast.
I think there were a total of about 15 trucks.
I started out using the Park Tires on the New Maximizer rims, but seems the foam in them seems to float to the inside and puts too much camber on them. Need to figure out a way to stiffen them up some, as they seem to be nice wheels. I ran practice with them on and before the heat race put Park Tires on with the stock TRC rims. They slide to the inside a little too with the foam but not as bad as the others, so I ran the day with them. Did 13 laps in heat races.
Robert Spencer ended up winning with 35 total laps in the "A" Main. I started out placing 3rd getting into the race and ended up 3rd overall by what the points show. I had a Tie Rod come off on the backstretch and by the time the guy got the truck back to me and I got it back on and the truck started I had lost a few laps and just couldn't make them up. Think I finished with 28 total laps.
In all it was a good day and learned more. Temp on the engine was running from 250-255 or so at the end of both heat races. I need to work on the bottom end after it heats up as it doesn't want to run then, and is cold blooded, or so it seems in the beginning, but I am running the stock T-Maxx starter setup with no glow plug igniter, so that might help if I was to warm it up some with one on.

Not too bad of a day and had a good time and learned more, so it was a good day. We were running on course #1
