      Sorry Todd. I missed what you were lay'n down here. An opportunity to tell everyone how great I am.

      Is this better?

      It only matters if I'm there because I make everyone better. My support, knowledge, higher level of expertise, and positive attitude have caused participation in our district to quadruple. My superior ability to not only solve a problem but share it with those less skilled is the reason I'm respected by racers world wide. My 5 national championships across two organizations in multiple countries and my 3 national record shields are proof that I am truly the expert I claim to be.

      BAHAHA I kill me. What a load of BS. I should write fiction novels. Poured it on pretty thick there. Not a lick of that crap is true by the way. In case anyone thought I actually believed my own BS.

      The championship stuff was real but they don't make me all that.

          I wouldn't believe it anyway. UNLESS.....there was a pic of you surrounded by a couple mediocre looking females and a cool car. Now THAT....., that would make it believable.

              John, sorry yes. Elks on Sunday.

              If I ever stop learning in this hobby stick a fork in me. I've died. None of us is the foremost authority. Part of the reason I dig this hobby is that somebody always has an idea that will spark your imagination.

              Just the other day. Mike was talking about the low resistance of solid copper.........hmmmmm.............6 days later my T cat has a copper buss bar mounted solid to the tunnel instead of 2 feet of floppy wires.

              Last night we figured out what was wrong with my Q sport. Couldn't see it right in front of my face. Fred said "why is it like that?" DOH! Well there's your problem.

              Should have it back up Sunday for a couple laps. Pete's new fins kick total butt by the way.

                  RJ.....don't be jealous. Hahaha

                  Let's pile on.

                  District 2 director.
                  Appointed by the NAMBA president as fast electric chairman. One of three there have ever been. During my tenure I helped (only helped) usher the lithium polymer era into NAMBA racing. That happened through a re-rewrite of about 80% of the electric sections. There were many many contributors to that end but the I was on the front line.
                  I was also contest director and chief organizer of the largest electric only race in US history.

                  Racing became less than fun for me for a while.

                  I have a lot invested in this silly hobby. I take it a little too personally sometimes.
                  The notion that I would be jealous of anyone's "success" would require me to allow someone else to define it for me.

                  Now, today, I get to race with my son, my best friend, and some of the greatest people I've ever met. By my definition........I'm the most successful racer in this country.

                    Guys,

                    I am planning on coming out on Sunday. I have a lot of testing to do. It will be a treat to test on the National course. I am going to try to be there around 9am.

                      Jay, it'll be great to see ya. Been almost a year.

                      I'll save a few square feet under my canopy. Then anything shy of a lightening storm and you can still get some laps in.

                        Terry,

                        That would be great. I won't have to bring my canopy. Should I bring my little generator or can can I bum off you for power.

                          Na, I'll throw the 1950 in the back of the truck. Plenty for us.

                              hehe I wondered if you were watching this stupid thread. Can it be slathered to prevent a boil from forming in the first place?
