That's great... Not that far of a drive for me from Yukon, OK.. Just getting back to building chassis thanks to lots of advice and examples from Jim Fowler.
This is the first chassis I have built in 10 years or more..
Just running on my garage track right now.
BTW Richard, I think I raced with you back in 70-72 time frame at Broadway Hobbies. Raced most every weekend for a year or more until we moved to OK in 73.

Hmmmm.... name almost sounds familiar. Did you also race with Richard Gibson("Iron Man") at Tom Ugron's place in Pasadena?

I'm too lazy to do anything above and beyond what I've already laid out.
Sorry to hear you won't make the race... look forward to seeing you in February.

I've had no track time since May but have built up my fleet a little.
May need someone to remind me how to hook up the controller!
