Josh/Ryan, if you want to come at like 5:30pm to help set up that would be cool; Ryan, call me on my cell when you get here as I'll be at the office, not the track.

Well I'm down here enjoying the sunny Florida weather with my wife and kids but I'm partially wishing I was back home running Zs with you guys. Especially since my wife got me a shiny new MR-02 575GTC for my Christmas/B-day gift (needless to say my wife is awesome ). I was also able to get a used MR-02 chassis with 94mm alloy mid-motor mount and damper system.
Well since several of us have 575GTCs, I've got to get some decals to differentiate mine. Maybe shoot for something like the attached pic. I love BBS and Pirelli so I'll be looking for those decals. And hopefully Dave will be able to find some good mini-zracer.com decals.
Dave, fyi I'll be placing an order for bearings, metal kingpins, and some other things (maybe some metal steering knuckles like drac ? ) before the next GTG.
I'm bummed I've missed these last two. Hopefully we'll do one on Jan 6th as I am planning to be back by then.

Hey this is Ryan, I am on Josh's name right now at his house.
I believe The points series starts on the 6th. You missed good racing tonight, even though it turns out the FETS fried in my car. hopefully Chuck will be able to hook me up next week.
I picked up a 575GTC as well, but the Yellow one. I'd like to get some shell decals for it.
Racing wasn't bad, but I'm not sure on the exact order of the mains. But I believe in the A it was Mini-Z, Will, and Drac (or was it Drac before Will?). And In the B it was Josh, Mike and myself. Unfortunately I had some tire problems tonight, LOL.
Anywaya Josh and I ended up spending about 7 hours there, it was alot of fun. Hope you can make it next time.

The last race was fun too... 4 Epochs, (3 mine, and will bought a new one) got some pretty good run time length out of them... I got hit hard and my front tire popped off, but it didnt stop me lol... epoch handles pretty good even with 1 front tire/rim missing .

Racing was great, Mike really enjoyed racing tonight also. I'm working on my iwaver '02 right now at work. I will be getting a Kyosho '02 in two weeks. But for now I will build a Mini-z mr-02 with a Kyosho chassis and an Iwaver 02 board. Josh, get rid of that Iwaver if the servo exchange doesn't work.

Ryan left his 1.5 motor spacer and Channel 6 Kyosho Xtal in mini-Z's F40. I left my 3Racing red wheel nuts near our pit space, and left my ball diff's allen wrench with Dave.
Ohh yeah, Ryan seems to have lost a front tire in turn 3.

UGH! Checked my schedule, and I won't be able to make it next time out. But the good news is that I will be free from then on out.
Will or Chuck, both of you have your emails turned off. Since I cannot be there, I'd like to talk to Chuck about my MR-02 when he has time. My email is Mazda787b@gmail.com, so please contact me sometime during the week.
Other than that I had alot of fun last time. Thanks again, and I hope to be back in my car for the next race!
I will talk to my school wednesday about using the Gym on a weekend for some racing.
