I'm gonna need some variety cuz I'm gonna be drinking A LOT if I keep this up.
I live in wine country so I have whatever you need for variety. Merlot, Cabernet, Chardonnay, Pinot, Muscat Caeilli, Petit Verdot....you name it, I have it.

Pinot please. If you could send some Chardonnay for the wife she'd really appreciate it. Mondavi Carbernet if there's extra room in the box.
What were YOU saying about cheese, who needs the cheese now?!:
Just think Joe. You are not last now!

I'd like to know what happend though. It just started doing doughnuts and I couldn't get it to stop. I usually run with my antennae only up about 6 inches and have never had an issue, but even when I extended it all the way up it didn't help the situation. The throttle meter at the bottom of the screen showed about 50% and the steering was obviously pegged to the one side. I don't get it. :shrug:
I just raised the bar by a couple of laps.
Fast lap stays the same. I was focusing on staying consistent to improve my laps.
The only bobble I had was when the wife barged in to toss some receipt on the desk right in front of the monitor. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Yeah, FM with my 3PK. I honestly think it might have been a software glitch. I can't understand why else it would do something so weird.

Same setup I am using.
Looks like you get this one Rob - congrats! I tried but I just couldn't get the speed,that 17.9 is the fastest laps I ran. Never broke into the 17's in practice and I could never pinpoint when my fuel stop needed to be so I took 2 to make sur I didn't run out at the end. I couldn't make them really clean either.
I've been having radio issues too Josh. I switched transmitters(same type) but still had a problem once since.

Thanks. I couldn't let you get too far away from me. 
I'm surprised you could not make it with only one pitstop. I set my pit stop at 6 minutes and made it easily. I was using the mid-mid-mid engine setup.
You guys may want to look for a source of interference someplace nearby.

The mid-mid-mid is what I was running tonight. I only practiced one 4 min run with it before racing. I was running a top -bottom -bottom engine before.
I don't know where to look for interference,everyone is in bed when I race and nothing else is on around me.
The few times I encountered issues was because I didn't have my antenna up enough. The antenna on the receiver I use was also coiled up too much so I made it so it has 6" dangling.
Haven't had a problem since as long as I extend my transmitter antenna up about 1/3.
