Well, tomorrow is the first day of racing for the 1st Annual Kentucky Nitro Offroad Championship that Jetmech and I are attending!

Jet's already there and I'll be heading out about 5:00AM tomorrow. Taking a quick break from packing and painting the body for my truggy. I'm keeping my expectations realistic; just don't want to embarrass myself too much. If I TQ into a D or C main, I'll be pleased with my performance.

I'm racing my new MBX5T which should be interesting since I've really not gotten a lot of wheel time on it because of the weather here over the last month! I've barely got two tanks through it, so I haven't even gotten the engine fully broken in! I'm also racing my Hyper 7, which should be better since the last time it spun the tires clean off the rims (damn glue!)

I'm sure the Jet-man will fair much better! The dude can flat drive!

I'll be sporting my TEAM RCNT gear including my sweet hat Retarded Pilot made for me and the hoodie 4U2NV hooked me up with!

I'll do my best to catch some video and pictures of the event to post up!

Wish us luck!
 
Good luck, guys. Gotta represent for RCNT. So it's in Kentucky? Did you buy some 1/8 scale cinder blocks to put your ride up on while it's in the pits?

So how much is hitting yourself in the ankle barefooted worth???


anywho good luck guys whish i could get into racing
 
Checkin' in on my crackleberry, the track is good now, still a little loose but should blue groove by tomorrow afternoon maybe 3rd round. Have to say it's big air in front of the driver's stand. The last turn into the front straight is a drop that goes about 6ft below grade, up the face of the table top where your in the air for about 3 seconds. It's wild. 20's to low 20's for lap time which I'm sure will drop tomorrow and sunday into the high teens. 98 buggies, 66 truggies, 30some MT's, and 30some 1/10ths. The important parr is having fun. Monkey man will be running with fast company as my buddies can drive the poop out of an rc. We'll have ya dialed in. Race reports tomorrow if the op arises. Oh yeah and the possibilty to meet woodie on sunday.
 
Good luck guys. Most of all have fun.


Don't forget your bail money! :D
 
MW I have confidence in you bro, nice and smooth.

Good luck guys and have fun!!
 
Jet,

I'll be up there tomorrow morning/afternoon. I'm working on painting the FG body now and will leave here around 9-10 (hopefully) tomorrow morning.
