[quote="Leester"][quote="Ragtime"]I love the nitro cars. I used to have a 1/10th scale, 50 mph. A total rush to drive![/quote] Exactly! That's what I felt when I first drove a Nitro touring car in february this year. I never thought a car the 10th of a size of a real one could give you such a thrill! Now after spending 10 months driving these cars, it doesn't seem as much of a rush anymore. Well, that's because I have driven the car so many times that have gotten used to it. But still it's kinda crazy. Just to let you know, since you are from Texas. There is a race track that is in the lone star state, that hosted a world championship race, last year for nitro touring cars, and it was won by a Texan who happens to be my boss for my sponsor. It's called Mike's Hobby Shop in Porter,TX. It has a track that is truly world class. If you ever have the chance to race there or even just drive on it, it's worth a try. Here's the link to the track. www.mikes-hobbyshop.com/[/quote]

I imediatly got to work on the Summer Series. Every race expect one is on asphalt and aspahlt is a new expirience to me and my dad. I also have a new teammate. Bill Jeric who will be raicng along with me. <br /> <br /> <br />This season, the pit stop rules have changed. You now have to make two stops in 10 minutes or your race will nof count. The pit stop time has been increased from 8 seconds to 11 seconds. <br /> <br /> <br />Qualfying went decent for me, I ended up 4th overall but I was far behind the leader. I knew that this would be a learning year for my team but we would still have fun in the process. In the first A main i clipped one of the corners dots, upseting the car in the process. This dropped me back a few positions, with two minutes into the race, my teammate Bill, lost control of his car and i ran right into him rolling my car over dropping back a few more positions, however i was able to fight back and come in 4th. In the 2nd A main I made the same mistake at the begininng of the race and I got dropped back. Halfway through the race I was able to make up some positions, but I clipped another plow disk and it rolled my car over on the other side of the track and I had to go all the way around again. The good news was I was able to take 4th again. In the final main, i did not make the same mistake I did at the beginning and I was able to put myself in a better position. I screwed up my last race pit stop a bit by waiting a little bit for the car to come out but i went around again to come in. I placed 3rd in the last A main and was able to place 4th overall. My next race is April 28th, titled the Shanghai Grand Prix.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="modules/Forums/templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>Leester</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="http://cdn.wrongplanet.net/modules/Forums/templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Sun Apr 07, 2013 9:15 pm<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">Right now I'm sitting second so far in the GT-1 class.
