| Hey Guys, my name is Gabriel. i'm new to the on-road racing scene. for the past year i've been bashing around with my team losi XXX-NT. Now im thinking about racing on-road. right now i have a nitro TC3 with some hop-up parts, tune pipe, a STS racing engine which is ROAR legal and pushes out 1.5hp@40,000 rpm.im also running the barry baker winter nationals set-up. i know im a long way from the perfect set-up for your track. but i hope you guys can help me when i come to your track. i have never been there but i heard alot about it from the guys at warrick hobbies and im planing to visit the track on the 18th when you guys are having the 2 hour race.
was also wondering if anyone at the track who runs a TC3 if i can tag along with them and see the ins and outs of the track.
ANY HELP IS NEEDED..THANK YOU.

| There aren't too many guys with the ntc3. BUt that doens't matter. Come check out the track during the enduro, bring the car because the race doesn't start until the afternoon, so you can practice. THere's lots of helpful stuff posted in here abut setups that will help you. Make sure you run foam tires (37 or 40 shore) and get a good touring body (look at the recommended bodies thread) and some spare suspension parts (because that's usually what brakes the most) some gearing options and you'll be good to go. Racing starts on the 26th. If you've driven trucks before, you'll catch on here with no problem. Hope you make it soon.

| That Mazda will be great. Don't worry about a fancy paint job yet, Chances are it wont look very nice very long till you get used to driving at the track. One of our racers does very nice paint jobs though. His name is Alex (786.299.0072) He's on vacation till next week though. He's done two for me and I've managed to bang them both up on the first time out.
