What a beautiful day for this time of year. Was in the low 80's

When we got to the track there was a car parked in the middle where we usually race so we had to move the track down some and make it about 180'x90'. It was sure a drivers course, but a good challenge.
I started out running the Dominator in practice and found that you really had to slow down at the end of the straights with it, and then tried the T-Maxx and really liked it better then the Dominator, but I lost the steering on it and found out that the c clip on the Servo Saver had come off and with the Unlimited saver it makes it loose as anything, and also broke a yoke on the front driveshaft, so I decided I would run the Dominator in the main races.

When time came for our first heat race the timer wouldn't work, so they worked on it for more then a hour and couldn't get it fixed. Jeff told Ryan to hand count (of which I told him would not work) and in the first heat race Lee came in just a hair in front of me, but I was being careful being as though I didn't have a backup truck. After the next race Ryan decided it was impossible to hand count and just made the day a practice for people.

Don't know what this is going to do with the points, as this race didn't count, but should give me the bonus for being in all 10 races if I am at the rest and it doesn't rain. The Spences weren't there, but there were about 8 or 9 more trucks, so would have been a good race.

Got a few ideas on the electric stuff I am building for next year, so how that goes.
