Hey Alex

The race normally gets done around 4-5ish. It normally depend on the turn out.

If you where to win No that does not mean you have to run pro big block at the wf's. You only have to run Pro big block if you placed in Big Block At the wf's

There will be plenty of people willing to help you with ANYTHING.

You should come on down, its a great time.

Travis

Travis hit it all right on the head. If you're able, we'd love to see you. And, it'll give you a small taste of what to expect at the WF.

[Tom H.]

So, who's gonna be running in the S/C Tuff Truck class next weekend?

[AllanQ]

I'll be there.

Alex, hope you can make it down. You are more than welcome to come into the pits with the NLRCVA Team, we have plenty of space.

[Tom H.]

I'll be there.

GOOD! It seems like you've been gone forever!

[soulja]

i want to come holla at u guys.....but unfortunately i have to work. u all have fun

[AllanQ]

GOOD! It seems like you've been gone forever!

It has been forever. Last time I ran the trucks was November at Monster Jam.

[Tom H.]

That's right, you were "sick" (cough, cough) for the January race. LOL!

[AllanQ]

Who needs sympathy when I feel all the love..LOL

[Tom H.]

Who needs sympathy when I feel all the love..LOL

You know it! LOL

[SteGra]

Anybody else running short coursre trucks?

Gabe's Blitz is finally fixed (he ran it in the snow and puddles and shorted out the controller), but he wants to stick with young guns so he won't run it.

I may run it if there is enough to form a class.

[NLMD]

I think that anyone should be able to run in the Tuff Truck Class. It's not a monster truck class.

[godspeed1313]

if you need another truck my t3 can be a quick convert.

[NLMD]

I know that MD will have a nice class. I think everyone got a Blitz for X-mas.

Gabe should be alright to run it since he's running in the standard electric class now.

Sounds like everyone better be on their "A" game when they come on the track to race him!

[godspeed1313]

im glad he's doing the big boy class this season. it should give him some practice, i want to see him place at the finals i know he can do it. He just needs harder competition than we can give him :)

[Travis Mowery]

Sounds like i actually will have some real competiton in the class now

hehe

Haven't picked one of those up yet. Someday....

[NLMD]

Haven't picked one of those up yet. Someday....

They are really fun to drive. I really like racing them on a lap track. All the trucks are basically the same and makes for some fun races.

[godspeed1313]

yeah i want to get one too. i just can afford another truck. Thats why im converting my t3. for less than $100 i can have an sc10. that leaves more money for a visit to the Castle toy store :)

[savageman46]

I love all the trash talk!!

[Tom H.]

I love all the trash talk!!

Speaking of which..... NANNER, NANNER, my trucks are tuned & ready to go!:bolt:

Ohh trust me ill make it off alive, because i know how to drive and not hit stuff!

Did you finally get that rolling terd of yours that e-ravo thang moving? Last time i check you tore diffs out every 5 feet you drove it? When you replace the diffs again make sure you put them in the right time this time instead of backwards and learn how to shim!burnsauce
"Yeah take that one and stick in your juice box"

ok lil boy listen....:) i can shim a diff. it doesnt work when there is a hairline crack in the diff case. it was flexing everytime i gave it gas. but i will give you the backwards thing, its been a while since i have done that. but i suppose when you do that, its time to take a break:duh: but i have a whole new diff now, i put it in yesterday, and SHIMED IT!!! it looks like im in business. but i need a chassis and wing mount still. its enough to run it though.

And btw, my track will KILL YOU!!! not hit stuff... HA! i use a propane tank that is half burried for a jump, 4x4s on the ground for wheelie bumps, a trash can for one jump and a pile of tires for another. thats not the worst of it though. my launchpad jump will kill any lesser truck. its about 4 feet tall with four go-kart tires on top that kick you straight up. any truck that has ever run on it has limped off at some point, including savages :) so... BURN!

[SteGra]

Now, Now guys... let's keep the latest trash talk down.

The idea is to race and bash our trucks, not bash the truck of your friend

travis-"Meow"

Its all in good fun :)
but still :P

all this helps to add to the competition. travis would whisper at this point "if there was any" thats fine, don't worry about me. i would gladly lose if it meant travis got to race gabe. something about seeing him get beatin by someone almost half my age, its just an entertaining thought. :)

this is bad when hes at school and can't reply though...

[Travis Mowery]

Okay folks, it looks like mother nature isn't gonna cooperate once again. Saturday's forecast is heavy rain & wind tonight into tomorrow morning with the sun coming out late tomorrow to start drying things out. Which means things should be just right for Sunday. We just confirmed everything with Debbie's, so we're going to officially bump the race 1 day to Sunday. That'll give Y'all one more day to talk smack & get your junk ready to run!

[Travis Mowery]

Jacob that gives you one more day to smack tlak and get your junk ready

[toysrus]

I know i can not drive that good, but see if you can race on a fool tack for 15 to 20min ok.

[godspeed1313]

Jacob that gives you one more day to smack tlak and get your junk ready

its ready so don't worry about that. it still doesn't look purty, but it hasn't since run #1. i just can't wait to see what kind of track setup we will get to play on :)

[Just Justin]

so, how did it all turn out??

[Tom H.]

so, how did it all turn out??

It was a little soupy, but we wore a pretty good groove in the track by the end of the day. The turnout was great. In addition to our faithful followers, we also had new new folks come out to see what we were all about. I think everybody had a good time! Pictures should be done sometime in the next couple of days.

It was a great day. Cant wait to see the pics and vids.

[savageman46]

It was really a good event. I think everyone had a good time. We had some fun with truck intros. There was even a mud puddle for freestyle.

[Tom H.]

Travis made it to the podium... Jacob took his truck home in a basket!

no, no, no, you've got it all wrong. it showed up in a basket, i just dumped it out on the track. its still rolling though. i admit it has needed some work for a while, funds just hav'nt been there. its getting torn down and rebuilt this month, new body too. The junk will finally get fixed right, no tie wraps, i promise :)

[Just Justin]

Would you guys quit letting Travis win?? come on.

[Tom H.]

Would you guys quit letting Travis win?? come on.

He didn't win everything (for a change!), they managed to slow him to 2nd place in Big Block. LOL!

Joey only won by 5 thousands of a second and they had to go to 2 diffrent cammras to see who one

[Tom H.]

You're right, I did leave out the part about the photo finish.

[Travis Mowery]

:smiliejam:

It was a great day. i ran the quickest lap out of the whole day with my flux. Me and joey shelton had good races going on. It was real cool to see gabe race with the big dawgs. I think the race turned out to be coolest especially with the intro thing going on. That was cooool

[Tom H.]

Pictures are done! For the new folks, if you see a picture you want to download, click on it, then click "more info" underneath it. From there, you can download whatever resolution you want.

Great pics Tom. Good job catching all the action.

[savageman46]

A little water can't slow us down, we run monster trucks. Of course the prediction of a lot of water and wind will, so we moved the race to Sunday. What happens Saturday...sunny and 70. Oh well, Sunday was very nice and we had a great race. Debbies RC World had a perfect place ready for us to race on and dirt was just right. We ran a Chicago course and the racing was fast. Freestyle included a mud hole along with some high flying so you know it was good. Thanks go out to Sidewinder, HPI, AB Mods, and SMC for sponsoring our event. Thank all of you who come out and race, you guys are what make No Limit of VA! See y'all soon.

[NLMD]

Nice pics.
