I know there's a whole bunch more where that came from, Mr. Lex was taking pictures from all over the track.

I was nice to meet all the RC10talk guys, what a bunch of nice people :D

Badhoopty was running that Pink RC10 like a madman, he was putting some air under that car, Cline did a great job, he was averaging 15 laps and his car was quick, Congrats Cline, for only his first time racing off road, he qualified for the A-main. :shock:

I started 9th in the A-main moved up 4 spots in the first 3 laps and then got TKOd by someone I can't remember :evil: but it was fun, the whole weekend was hella fun. :D

Those of you who missed it, Don't miss it again next year, Erich, Mark, John, Will, and the rest of the RCHR crew was awesome as well, we had laughs, we gave advise, took advise and ditched out some nice vintage racing. :D

The Coverage from RC Driver Magazine is going to come out around January or February.

Great pics Jay! Great coverage too. Thanks to everyone who made this possible, I had a total blast this weekend, and already I'm looking forward to next year. I forgot how much fun racing is. It was great to see all the old cars and get to meet everyone finally, it was just a great weekend.

I've got a couple pics to post, most importantly of our amazing camera man in action.

Again, Congrats to Tim Covell aka covell2 for a great finish. Tim was really tearing up the track all weekend and fined tuned his skills just enough to edge out Mark Westerfield at the end of the day. I was totally impressed with Tim all weekend........ heck of a racer, for sure!!!!!!!!
