Hotshot Build!

During the past week I've been slowly building my Tamiya Hotshot that I picked up awhile back. I plan to get it working then run it at the track during practice or around my house every once in awhile. Here are a few pics I took during the build. 

Road trip to IERC Raceway

For this weekends racing we decided to take a trip up north to IERC in San Bernardino. This was our 1st trip to this track. The pit area was spacious, the traction good, but the surface was really bumpy, compared to our home track, SDRC.

I started off strong by setting the TQ for stock buggy in round 1, but things starting going wrong in round 2 after my car took a tumble that I didn't expect.  In the main I get hit over the 1st jump and drop down to last. Game Over.  Thanks for playing. 

The Red #1 Returns!

I place 2nd in Stock Truck last night and finished ahead of my brother, getting back the red #1 plate for my new truck body. I also currently have both plates for truck and buggy :). I also missed out on setting the new fast lap track record by 0.2 seconds. 

I set the track record at 25.259 after round 1 of qualifying but lose it in round 2. 

Still rocking the plate on my buggy!
