Larry,

Day 5 (Saturday) was P-Limited Sport Hydro

[RaceMechaniX]

Brian Buaas also had fast time in T-Hydro. Several of these times were record setters.

I just noticed. Douggie turned a quicker heat with his borrowed P mono than Dave did with his Q mono.

Interesting how close the times were for P limited Sport and P Sport Hydro.

Ray - Great video of the Q sport heat. I remember Pags leaning over on the drivers stand to remind me that there was only 25pts between us. That was calming!! ...and then Jimmy yelling in my ear when I was chasing Pags for the lead, 'You HAVE to win this to take the class....do NOT lift!!!!!'. ....... And then....... 'AWE!!!! YOU LIFTED'. Good times!!!!!!!!

- "Chip"

That last heat my stuffing tube was severely crushed from hitting Bob. The binding was creating tons of heat and when I lifted off the throttle it would slow down way faster than normal. I'm surprised nothing blew up, glad I only had a M447 on there.

Pete I really wanted you to win that class. You gave it a great run. Not the best pitting there looking back now. Sorry about that.

[Shooter]

Don't know what you're talking about!! I wouldn't trade Jimmy 'the numbers' Fransisco for any other pitman.

Ray - I STILL can't believe you are only running an M447. That motor has to be much higher KV than the 1527-1Y. Whatever it is, I WANT ONE!

I just noticed. Douggie turned a quicker heat with his borrowed P mono than Dave did with his Q mono.

Dave's Q-Mono is pretty fast as I found out in T-Mono, however
he was never really pushed. If you recall Dougie and I had a very aggressive
final heat......which as expected he won again to gain 1st place in the class.

[jfrancisco892]

The Numbers. Haha. Remember you're not racing for the podium.

Terry,

We could start a thread all on it's own of Douggie stories!

I loaned him a 1515 1D back at the NATS at Lake Minden, back before most had bought into the "hype" of their quality, and he proceeded to kick my a$$ all over the pond with it in N2-Mono... :)

He's so freaking good!

[T.S.Davis]

I loaned him that P mono Pursuit. He had me move the cells up a 1/4" I couldn't possible tell the difference in a 1/4"

[longballlumber]

I wanted to bring this post back up... The link below should have about 400+ high resolution pictures from the nats. I am relatively new to using this type of equipment so some of them are blurry.

Better late than never right?
