Thanks for the post. I have zero interest in Facebook, so I'm kind of out of the loop.

Looks as close as the results from the Sano GTC Pro race, and not even hand-outs.

More hard data that the Hawk Retro is most consistent motor in Retro racing and produces the closest racing.

The four other guys were still close.
 
You being in the middle of them doesn't change the validity of my statement.
 
Regardless, it still goes with what I've said before.
 
The Retro Hawk is no faster than a top Puppy Dog.
 
I ran a low 4.6 with the original Z-rail F1 chassis, and a Puppy Dog bag motor, back before R4/4, five years ago.
 
I improved my track when I moved, and I still haven't gone any faster with the same chassis, similar chassis and Retro Hawks.
 
Oh, and I did those times five years ago with a non-spoiler tray Red Fox Ferrari.

Pardon my computer ignorance but how do I find the results from Saturday's KOR - ORS race at TTH. I thought I would be able to find them on the TTH website but I can't find them?
 
Thanks.
 
By the way thanks to Mike and Cindy for a great day of racing in spite of the difficult circumstances with the death of Jim Nolen.

Long and strong day of racing with a lots of new faces. 

 

Really setting the stage for the R4/9.  If you were thinking about coming for the R4 you better start finalizing your plans now.  The track has fresh braid in most sections just in time for the "big one".
