KBRL Series Updated Flyer

Really looking forward to racing in this years series, as an update, here is the updated flyer for the series.  The classes are updated on this one.  For more information about the KBRL and the series head on over to http://www.racekbrl.com/.  The sportsman buggy class should be really fun with the 17.5 motors. And this year I will be racing a new truck, the TLR 22 SCT in the Pro-Lite class.

Looking forward to the Pro-Line Surf City Classic

Getting ready for the Pro-Line Surf City Classic being held at the OC/RC Raceway in Hunnington Beach, CA.  this will be a 2-Day event on September 1st and 2nd (2012).  I am excited about this one because it will be first time I race outside my home state of Arizona, and should be a blast.  At this time I will be running my TLR 22 in the 17.5 Stock Buggy class, and if I get my TLR 22SCT in time, I will be entering that into the 17.5 Stock Short Course field.  I don;t have any plans on trying to race my HPI Blitz in the race, but it all depends on whether I get my new truck in time.  I will be making the trek with my friends over at Wolfpak Racing, Dean and Dragi.

Below is the flyer for this years race:

Looking forward to 2012-2013 KBRL Series

Its almost that time a year again, the 2012-2013 KBRL Series starts with the first round on September 8th, 2012 down in Tuscon at Competition Hobbies.  I am really looking forward to this years series.  Last year I only had my 2WD Short Course truck (HPI Blitz) to race.  This year I have switched over to Losi, and will be racing my TLR 22 Buggy and my new TLR 22 SCT.

Below is the flyer that has come out for the series.

Club Racing down at SRS/Hobbytown

Wednesday August 1st, 2012

Got in another great night of racing down at SRS/HobbyTown USA.  This was the first time I have gone down and raced on a Wednesday.  I carpooled down with my friend Dean from Wolfpak Racing.  This being a more of a practice session for us, we decided just just run our 2WD Buggies this night.  When we arrived the track was in great shape, and was able to get some night practice laps before the racing started.


I did not get a chance to take any pictures or get any video for this outing.  I need to get better at doing that. Here are the race results for Dean and myself below.

RC Racing at HobbyTown SRS in Scottsdale

July 21st, 2012

Its been awhile for racing, but this past Saturday I was able to get in some racing down at SRS Hobbytown in Scottsdale.  The day started off kind of of crazy, as a dust storm came through a couple of hours before racing started.  We had set up the tent/shade, but with the win blowing very hard, we in the end decided to take it down.

Ernest and Dragi looking forward to some fun racing.

Round 1:

I love the new layout, but was not setup correctly with tires for this round.  I was able to hold on to a 3rd place finish.

Round 2:

I thought I would better in the second round, but the truck kept washing out in the turns.  But it did feel better, I matched my first round with 8 laps, but came in 4th.

Ernest, Dean and Dragi, getting ready for round 1 action.

A-Main:

For the A-Main, the truck felt pretty good, and although I got a rough start to the race, I was able to pull out a podium finish, and came in 3rd.  Overall it was a great day of racing, with a good group of guys down at HobbyTown Scottsdale.
