Thanks guys, Derek made a good weekend out of what started Saturday as a bad one, after being hammered in every qual. and not ever getting remotely close to a clean run. He started 2nd in the "C" main and he and Aaron Pucci bumped to the "B" and Derek ended up winning the "B" on the last lap about 5 feet from the line he passed Mike Cartwright for the win with Aaron Pucci right behind the 2. Before the "A" mian I told Derek to just go out and get what was given to him and there were 65 other drivers that wished they were in his shoes.. I think he only wrecked 2 times on his own in the 45 min. "A" and ended up 4th. He had 85 minutes of run time on Sunday and I think running the lower mains helped him in the "A" because he was in a super smooth groove. Thanks to the Wheelers for the clutch springs and we really enjoyed racing with them and all the North Division drivers this weekend. Thanks to Xray and RC America for having faith in an 11 yr old kid and giving us a chance to run on the best team with the best car out there. |

I was glad to see Derek do so well, he's so young and so good, in a few years he might be the kid to beat at a lot of places....good job! My car was really goood in the main, after 1st pit got engine died on track and clutch slipped until the next pit stop b/c they got fuel on the clutch. At pit stop towards middle of race they got fuel on clutch again but it slipped so bad couldn't do a small double and engine died but few minutes later it burnt off and was OK but acted weird. I was 2-3 laps down b/c of the flameouts and could only get 2nd place until Adam's rx pack died. |

best way to make sure your not in the same quals with your race partner is to write down the same channel number for your radio when you sign up. For instance me and my buddy both put channel 72 only, even if you have spektrum. It gaurantees you will not be put in the first qual toghter, until the reshuffle or the main if you qual near each other. trick works great. shhhh. cant have too many people doing at the same track or it wont work. |
