Hey all, looks like the racing will return to Sanford Airport again in '09!

It will be benefit race for Camp Waban which is a program for disabled children.

Scott 357Bronco got us hooked up last year and it was fun. How about a larger Bronco turnout this year? Come beat me again this year...everyone else did.

I plan on defending my title at the Sanford airport, and donating any winnings back to Waban. It's a new tradition for our class, as far as me and a friend of mine are concerned. Although if you don't see me there, I have the best excuse to miss a race.

Hey New England Broncos!

This is coming up fast and hope many can make it to support a good cause and have a little fun.

I hope to have the bugs out of my new engine to see how it does. Come and try yours out.

I live nearby, so if you need info let me know.

Sounds like it might be decent weather Sunday!

Come on down to Sanford and let that Bronco run a little. Should be fun.

357Bronco...how's the little one? Any pics?

Our little girl is awesome, tiring, but awesome. Even with her coming early I thought I'd have the Bronco together, but my transmission isn't done yet. There's a small possibility I may have it Friday, which means it will be a busy Saturday. I'm still going, even without the weapon, racing is racing;D

Just got back from the track, looking forward to tomorrow. Who's going? I won't be representing the EB's, so someone else will have to.

I think I'll go over around 8:30 am. I got there way too early last time and froze to death. I'm sure the weather will be better this year though.

Mike you're racing right?

I hope my truck is ready...I mean heck, the engines got 150 miles on it now...what could happen?

Paul's truck is running very well, I'd like to hear he won, that's the story that would be cool. I'm about to start making some phone calls, to see how the day went.

Hey guys,

Just missed a phone call from Don. My but couldn't get out of my recliner fast enough. Sorry Don.

No, I lost again this year. Not the trucks fault. I just need tree practice I guess.

My last run was my fastest: 6.460 @ 49.40 mph on a 6.45 dial in. Doesn't sound bad, but I still lost! Reaction time was .719 on that one.

I got a video (thanks Mike) and Scott your friend from Conn. has some pics of mine she said.

Had fun!!

Paul

Awesome Paul. A 6.46, on a 6.45 is unbelievable, that's what wins races. You lost at the tree, which only means one thing, YOU NEED TO RACE MORE;D ;D ;D As far as reaction, .500 is perfect, anything in the .500's, and even .600's will win races. Who won?

Awesome Paul. I'm assuming you dailed 6.45, not 4.45? A 6.46, on a 6.45 is unbelievable, that's what wins races. You lost at the tree, which only means one thing, YOU NEED TO RACE MORE;D ;D ;D As far as reaction, .500 is perfect, anything in the .500's, and even .600's will win races. Who won?

Thanks Scott, fixed my posted dial in.

Had a good 4 races all in the mid 6's as vs. last yrs low 7's. Need tires pretty soon If I do this again. The BFG AT's aren't doing it anymore.

We left a few races after getting bumped out. Couldn't tell you who really won.

Good group of guys there, but what was this?

Paul
