Wyoming Race Jan 30-31st

here is the update from our first day of racing. We ran 3 sessions of qualifying for all the classes, We started at about 10am yesterday and finished up about 6:30pm. there are 20 drivers with most running in multiple classes. they are running the following: Super stock Mini-z, Formula 1, Kyosho Stock Mini-Z, Modified Pan and Nascar.

I was having some issues with my stock car pushing. then right before my first race I couldn't get a signal from the car. it seems that I had a motor wire loose, but didn't have time to really do anything about it. I grabbed the backup MR-02 from my box and put it on the track without even a test lap. the car was good, but not great. I still managed to finished I think second in that first race in Stock. the next race was even worse. I finally got my MR-03 back working and switched back to it. I didn't have time before that race to get really ready and then I made the biggest mistake you can make as a racer, I didn't put in fresh batteries and the dumped about 3 minutes into the race. I changed them quickly and got back in the race. I caught back up to 5 place and then I threw a tire. I pulled the car for the remainder of that race. Currently I was sitting in the last post on the top qualifying group (7th). I finally had time, and taped all my tires on and just hoped in the next race all would go well.

In the 3rd qualifying race. I was off. My car was handling great, but would traction roll if I pushed it to hard. I took the lead after 2 laps and lead the rest of the way. Car was quick and was handling great.

my formula 1 was hooking up right from the start and I lead every lap of the first 2 qualifying sessions. I changed my tires planning for today and in the third race weren't scrubbed in and were very slippery. I'm sure they will come in after another race and should be perfect for the Main.

My Pan Car is also handling very well and is dialed, I'm finishing about 5 laps ahead of 2nd. place.
