Yes I have neglected this for quite a while. I will not bore you with the reasons, because they are are boring.
It was a very good season, maybe the best we have had yet. We only had one rain out for the entire season, which given the amount of rain we have gotten is incredible. The one rain out had to be the Hobby Connection Day cash race though. And it looked pretty bad for the final race of the season also. After an hour delay, the racing went on and it was a great day.
Here is a link for the photos of the last race.

What a turn out!
There is a hell of a turn out here. I got to the track a little late, and the parking is all but full.
It is another beautiful day, maybe a little on the warm and sticky side, but it is shaping up to be a good day.
I would like to take this opportunity to apologize for the last few months. I have been a little slow in some of my responsibilites, and I would like to make it clear that the situations that caused the problems are no longer a day to day issue. If this is a little vague, too bad.
I am hoping to be out to the track soon to get photos, but the combination of screwed up personal life and getting stuck working on race days, it is going to get better. After all we don’t have all that many races left in the season. Three points and a cash and a trophy race.
So, thats it. Hope to see you out at the track soon.
No this not a sarcastic posting. But I have a new peice of tech that has some interesting possibilites for at the races.
I have finally gotten my self an iPhone. While this is reason enough to be overjoyed, it has other potential. Say I am out at the track and it is 7:30 in the morning, and the weather has been iffy. I will be able to post track and weather conditions.
I will also be able to post photos straight from the track, with out having toget my laptop, hunt for a wireless signal….
And I would do this for the next race, the cash race, but I have to work, thanks Dave!
I will be moving in the next few weeks or so, and as a result it has been a time to go through old boxes. And guess what I found. Old cd’s with photos and video from 2002.
Looking through them, it is very clear that my skill at taking photos of rc cars and trucks have improved cnsiderably. But the photos are interesting because it shows what the track looked like back then. These were the old days, no 1/8 buggies or truggies. There were a few monster trucks, but it was just about all 1/10 stadium trucks.
In the next few weeks I will be uploading to Flickr, so bear with me.
It went better than could be expected. The rain on Friday helped out a lot, and the new sound system kicks butt! A big thanks out to Tom, Eric and Toby for all they have done!
Here is a link for the photos. There aren’t too many, only 80 or so.
