Great job on the event Jeff! The reporting and photos makes it feel like we're there. Congrats to Dave on the SS win and to HT for making the PSO list, hopefully the crew will get the tire pressure corrected. My PSO needs some attention from me so beat up on it while you can guys

Urban Hillbilly Video covers No prep type of racing with cars that you see on Street Outlaws. Sean from UHV told me they have recently found HO Drags as a way to pass time during the winter months.

For those of you kids not on facebook yet, you're missing out on some good HO Drag Racing, videos and club info. I came across this today that was posted on "Central Kansas HO scale slot car drag racing" page. It's good to see our hobby getting some coverage.

I've seen some cars improve after adding weight. Could be the improved traction from the extra weight or the car might not be lifting at the hit allowing the shoes to stay planted? Anyways I'm glad it's working out for you. When I suggested we add 1 gram to our local Mountain Motor Pro Stock class (21 to 22) there were grumblings because it slowed everyone down about a hundredth. No one had heart failure (to my knowledge) and it actually tighten the field up a little since some of the cars that struggled making the minimum weight of 21g were now competitive.

Great race coverage KD! IMO the best coverage on the NTRA tour each year. Congrats on your wins Dave & Jeff. I think Jeff is becoming a little bit of a crash coverage whore Hey guys, look what I can do on the big end!

Shark pool; keep in mind that this is a 2 day event. If you don't get on the list on day 1, you'll have another shot in the shark pool on day 2. I bring this up because if #10 gets bumped on day 1, then you'll have a chance at the list again by winning the shark race on day 2. I guess if the shark winner on day one can't get on the list.... then day 2's results will most likely be the same.
