Team Super Monkey 3rd place
Thanks to my fellow spring rollz concession teammate breaking in the main race, Monkey made it to 3rd place. Terrance got 4th place in electric stadium truck.
Terrance got 1st place in 2wd electric buggy. Way to go Team Spring Rollz.
Did anyone see that take down on Mike Sage to slow him down in the 1st Qualifier?
Ghetto fixed my truck with a zip tie!! Worked flawlessly, wish I had seen that damage during the break before 2nd qualifier instead of the 3rd qualifier!!!

Missing truck found
The missing truck mystery may have been solved. Detective monkey
believes the truck was used for parts to make the nitro buggy into a
truck, but I still think I had 3 chassis with 2 buggies and 1 truck

Dremel Hazards
Well never do anything with a dremel without a dust mask.
After cutting my new FIRESTORM body from its mold,
I went to eat and discovered a ball of something making it way down my throat.
After a few hours it moved down past the wind pipe until this moring when it made it to my intestines.
All is fine now, so remember kids, wear a dust mask!!!

WOW $35 buys alot of RC
Went to Hobbytown today, found a new body for my HPI Nitro Firestorm, and found a bunch of clearanced Duratrax Evader Stadium Trucks parts. I am trying to decide if I should paint the body or just apply the stickers.
The great debate
I can not decide what to do with my $100 extra I made this weekend.
Should I
A. Trade in a video game system and buy the newer version.
B. Save it for a rainy day.
C. Buy better tools for RC racing
D. Buy a trailer thats for sale.
E. Should I save another week and get a trailer hitch so that the Trailer could be used.
F. Just save up about $400 and get a down payment on a truck, but with todays gas prices I do not know.

Farmers State Race
I can not wait to see all the RC racing Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Hope to watch many races and learn some new tricks. I will have to run a concession stand on Sunday, can not wait to sell monkey burgers and monkey fries!!!
Monkey didn't make the main race
Monkey had issues all day with the gas truck, practice stalled, 1st qualifier bad turn marshalling, 2nd qualifier, did not start on time due to starting the truck issues, then stalled twice. Seems to be issue when trying to go fast, works fine when i just idle around the track, only when trying to move faster then slower. Then due to sponsor becoming ill, had to go home before main race

5/4 Rotunda RC race
Mechanic and fellow springrollz concession teammate Terrance, got 1st place in Gas truck. Whats more amazing is that Terrance did this not with his own gas truck, but a borrowed Duratrax Nitro Evader ST from the Monkey collection. Way to go Terrance.

I finally have all my electric and nitro stuff in one organized box.
Only thing that won't fit at moment is shock towers for the Evaders, and the starter box for my nitro truck.
Everything else is in it.
Now monkey can race and do concessions!!!!
