This was also a project day. Mark brought his copy of a Hanna chassis in progress and got the motor mount and rear cross over soldered in. We got a few other little projects done also. Thanks to those who showed up and made it a fun day.

Re: This is the Can Am page.

What a fun day of racing. I really enjoyed the camaraderie. The racing was fierce but not taken too seriously. Thanks everybody.

I'm with Rico!

Here's a few pictures I took at the race:

The pits were busy too! Bart was telling Craig and Al that sometimes snacks help!
