Likely they watched too many staged youtube videos of lipos catching fire

That's gonna be an awesome race for sure. I wonder how much last year's JBRL electric 1/8 demo race has influenced this one (being at Rev and all). If it weren't for school I would definitely be there.

Dude. Can't you get a couple of days off for THIS? This is only going to be here this year. Next year it will be across the country somewhere REALLY out of reach.

Yeah, school can wait. This is far more important!

Well, maybe I will try for it then

At least it won't be hot!

The more I think about it, the more I am considering it. I can make the long (1200 mi) trip in a day if I have to and I have lots of vacation time as I haven't used any in a while AND my new race buggy shipped today. I would be running hard case... but 6s. Hmmmmmmmmm!

I am gonna try to make the trip as well, though this year's travel budget is getting thin(RCX, IHobby, etc.).

Does your suitcase fit 6'4'' skinny black guy?

Didn't realize that - that counts me out for sure. :(

C'mon Mike. Dan from RCPD will be there too. We could have a mini manufacturer's cup race!

Thanksgiving, smanksgiving... you can give thanks from anywhere... even southern California, LOL. (and eat turkey too!)

RC-Monster Mike · 09.28.2009, 08:52 AM

I would love to participate but Thanksgiving and Christmas are really the only times I get to spend any time with my family(2 brothers, parents and nephews), though. I think holding the race on Thanksgiving weekend is VERY poor planning.

I agree.

I would have loved participating in this race but a race on a Holiday like Thanksgiving just won't work for me.

Too bad you won't be able to make it Mike. Hopefully you have a great holiday break and maybe the family won't drive you too crazy.

For me, I am hopeful that the Thanksgiving holiday won't hurt the turnout too much. I, like many others don't do a whole lot on Thanksgiving (except eat too much) and look for something to do with the extra time off.
