I have decided, that I need many boxes, but I only need to take certain boxes on certain days.
So I need to make one universal box that works for every car or truck.
Then a specialty box for each car or truck.
That will cut down on what I need on a certain day.

New gas Truck
It was so easy to start, I will be racing the former Fred the Hitmans Firestorm this Friday, and hopefully I will get it to work at Lil Dover on Saturday too.
Just have to fix the steering issues, the steering is reversed in the spektrum!!

Restocked RC race Supplies
Picked up 3 new rolls of electrical tape. My one roll was getting low. Do not know why I felt the need to buy 3 rolls. I now have 170 feet of tape.
Also purchased a lighter to melt the shrink tubes for electrical connections.
I found a sunwa multimeter tester. Hopefully my mechanic will inform me how to use it.
I got a pair of gloves for turn marshal duty.
There is also a new utility knife, all I need to do now is find a can or bottle of bug spray.

Saturday Farmers Announcer
Did not race but got more time to learn how to run a Race.
Really need to enclose the announcers booth and keep the mean people away.
A window view would be great too, but who am I?

Farmers Friday Results
Did not come in 1st, but did not come in Last. Many thanks to sparky and eric for breaking their Trucks to make sure I did not finish in last. For some strange reason, I do better on the track before it is watered. I guess in desert conditions I would do alot better.

Bad first Dirt Oval Race
With the threat of Rain, I became a track member and entered my first race. Was the only electric racer, and was put into the gas super stock class.
Never made it past the starting line, my spur gear was slipping.
The gas was winning until on the last lap it crashed into the wall.
Then it was raining so that was the last race of the day.

New Gas Truck
Got a Firestorm from the Hitman. Came with a crap load of other stuff, starter box, roto start drill starter, radio and receiver. Should be operational Friday if I am lucky. Other wise will be running my electric buggy and truck.
Got 1/18 Mini T
I got a 1/18 mini t from Mike, and it came with 2 bodies. Tried to use one of the bodies for the 1/18 slider, but it doesnt fit right.
Gonna need to either get a radio for it, or figure out why the radio is only making it turn right and turns off.
Also need to get some tires as well and the battery pack.

1/18 Slider Repaired
Just finished figuring out how to get my steering servo installed. It now turns left and right, its not 100% right, but good enough for racing.
After blowing up my mini ESC, I installed a full size ESC and its ready to go.
Just waiting on my battery bar to come in, and I need to order a new slipper gear!!

Nitro Truck not ready
Engine was ready to go, but mechanic felt it was not race ready yet.
Also while being the race anouncer, my mechanic parked the truck in a rough neighborhood, the tires and some steering arms were removed by some Vandals!!! LOL
