thanks to all that posted videos! the only race i watched all weekend was the Apache Gear Challenge (from the seat of the Orange Crush). i spent too much time fighting with my machine and not enough enjoying the races. it's nice to be able to see what i missed!

Bridget & Whipper, you should have nicer weather today, if you spent the night in St Louis. Clouds and a little north breeze maybe.

I was able to get to them no problem. I'd try again. I'm glad you said something about the links at the beginning. I have been reading the thread all along and never noticed Mike compiled everything at the beginning.
Thanks for that Mike. I like the format.

very odd... i tried it on both computers (win 7 and XP) and neither worked. switched from firefox to internet explorer and it comes up just fine... all the others work in firefox


on another note, I just did a simple seperation test and found that the 93 octane fuel that i bought for the racer at the Circle K in Ashtabula was around 40% water! that's the fuel i dumped in after i ran my practice laps. can't wait to pull the filter and see how bad it looks! once i get the fuel system cleaned out and see if the 400 will run as it did before i left, i'll probably throw the 440 back in (with turbulator) and see if that one will run. fuel was the one thing i did not suspect as i had just gotten it from the pump that morning!
otherwise the machines are cleaned, serviced and ready to go get muddy again. once Beth and I get the camping gear cleaned and preped for the next adventure, i can get back to work on the family truckster!

i looked over the pics from the weekend, and we have quite a few great air bud shots (time to start a second wall Whipper) and some great candid shots. We will try to sit down this evening and get some of them resized and posted. Until i can get them all posted I will leave you with this

Wow Brian, didi I read correctly that your can was almost 1/2 water? As in pour the gas off the top and the rest is water? That's bizarre. Recently I serviced two lawn mowers, they ran fine when done, but they later complained the wouldn't start after a hot shut down. Well, turns out they had lots of water in the fuel system. Further interogation revealed they left their gas can outside all year with a faulty seal I'm beginning to think nothing gets more abuse and less attention than some lawn mowers.

Thanks to Model Citizen and Whipper for sending in the racing results. I have updated the first post in this thread with the results. If there are any mistakes or any missing user name please let me know.

Thanks,

Mike

Hi All!
WOW! WOW! WOW! What a wonderful and dirty weekend! It was awesome to meet so many people and put a face with their screen name. The racing was great, but the trail rides are my favorite! Thanks to all of you guys that let Becky and me tag along!
A special thank you to George who let me play with his lens. Now I know what I want Santa to bring me for Christmas!!
