LOL!!!!

Let's just say this; I've seen Nick drive, I'm up to the challenge and given the opportunity - I'll bet on Nick every time!!!! BUT, I don't think I'm someone who he wants to put on his resume' as having beaten! AND, I'll be happy to add him to the somewhat LONG list of drivers' who HAVE beaten ME!!!

And I seldom 'wennie' out....

OH, and the reality of the current somewhat hard times is that there's not a lot of 'given new product to test' going on these days; I have 3 electrric CORR trucks - a Slash which I purchased, a Blitz which I purchased and a Strike which came to me from the magazine to to test! NOT a lot of 'given' for the last 1.5 years.... this has proven to be my year to GIVE BACK in many cases by not even breaking even on several trips which I have made to cover events and make sure that they received print coverage. BUT, that's the hard reality of the current times.....

AND, RC Driver still leads the pack in terms of diverse racing coverage - everything from the 1/8th scale Nitro ROAR Nationals, the 1/10th Scale Electric Nationals to the Chili Bowl Jr., the 1/4 scale Nationals and the KS Dirt Oval Championship in the oval area.

Road King,

Maybe put the Slash shocks on the rear and put that body on the Sc10 and it will help mentally. Oh, and move that switch, the marshals where way to easy and cheap to have them shut you off. Only cost me a pop,,,,lol
