USA update

Post by ozproducts »

Cody went to the track today, to start his assault on BP. The last couple of days he's been staying with one of the racers. He received all his parts that were shipped to Forest Watchers. Chassis,arms,bodies and tyres. So he is busy cutting coms and shafts ready to load, Chassis building will happen back at motel tonight. He just called and said the motors he just ran were doing 1.8s on 4ft and 1.95 on 8ft. He is runnig SPACE rubber by GO FAST. Also Cody said that Peter's track is better. So soon he's off down town LA for dinner with his god father Andy Wasserman, His first race is OMO at 4am Sunday our time.

Cody just raced in the OMO Class at BP He came 2nd 917 laps 20 behind 1st, some guy i've not heard of. He did 1 lap more than the winner of semi pro. Most people blew. He had to run straight up most of the way to stay with the leader. Cody raced a 26 mag les wright setup with a koford 84.5 490 arm which we brought from Peter at Mobile just before he left and had it BBB. He also raced a Boola chassis team boola gave him yesterday so he built it at the track last night Sounds like it was a bit soft and loaded up in the back shoot. He just called and said he hooked up his control wrong and blew his transistor (DUMB & DUMBER ). So now he is getting for the pro race 1200 laps just around the corner.9 entries So he is going to run a new motor each heat.Wayne

Cody was racing 27 lites today with a borrowed car, he was in secound catching 1st and the lead wire broke. Next class is gp 7 lite's this is run on spray goo and you can only use 2 motors. He lost the 2 motors and finished last i think. He also won concourse in OMO and GP7.After all the wing racing was over they raced jalopys on the road course, This is a scratch build chassis brasss and wire with a hard body, with Falcon 7 motor and big brass wire front and back bumpers. The local hot shot Peter Sterratt gave Cody his spare car and Cody TQ ( new track record) Fastest lap every heat and came 2nd to peter. All the other wing car drivers stood around in amazement watching. Normally wing car drivers CAN'T drive Scale cars

So what,...did Cody decide Not to run Grp27's ???,..

Pretty poor turnout, with Only 4 starters,.. considering the per capita totals, it's Worse than Aussie wing car racing !!!

They certainly got going damn late as well,..if I'm still up, I'll check back for the Opens.

I heard Cody chatting (out of camera) when I first logged in last nite, but haven't seen him there this morning.
