Wooooo what a day! We just came off a three week break because of Father's Day and in two weeks we have another and a week after that we have our Mid Season Championship, so we'll be busy.

Today the weather was perfect, maybe a little on the hot side. Considering it was raining everday for a few days before it was a welcome sight. All that rain meant the grass was higher than we're used to.

The Course:

Six lanes with each racer having three on each side for their course.



Each racer starts off on the outer most lanes behind the cones. On go, you jump the first big set of ramps in front of you.



Next turn inward to the next closets lane and jump the second set of big ramps.



Then turn inward again to the inner most lanes with the crush cars. Jump the cars and then turn outward to the lane you came from.



Jump the big ramps for the last time and on to the cones at the far end for the finish. Deceptively simple course but those turns are much tighter than they appear. Most of us were having a hard time with them in qualifying and the first heat.

it's my clod...and it's a JPS pro chassis...

3s lipo + dual mamba max pro + dual 4600kv + hawnmt and hyperstang yelling "LAUNCH 'EM!!!" = me squeezing trigger and clod going ballistic...:tmb

a good percentage of the time, it rolls over and gets back on it's feet though...

i think part of not having a crowd is the location where we play at...

it's our 3rd site now, and the amount of foot traffic is pretty limited...i think we had more exposure at the 1st and 2nd places we played at, since it had more people walking through it than where we are now...our second site was a major park, but we got booted from it due to someone complaining about where we were parking (along side our play area, but there were no "no parking" signs posted there)...

we did post up about our event on a local general forum, with an r/c subsection, and there's posters at the local hobby shops, but it seems to be the same core group of guys who come out to play...

i'd love to see more people get involved, but i think we'd need to relocate again, and get back to an area with more foot traffic...

Were all on Oahu it's the third island from the left on the island chain.
LOL, yes, third island from the left. I'm a big Maui fan. My cousin was born and raised on Maui. I use to go over there every other summer.

Now its been years since I've been back. Miss it.
