Day 1 Qualifying – Summer Indoor Nationals

I can’t say enough for the Amain crew as Kendall Bennett, JT and others are right on top of everyone’s needs and the facility and customer service is second to none

It was the Steven Hartson show today in 2wd modified and 4wd modified. Steven put down the TQ runs and really blistered the track in round 3. Heavy duty driving.

I had some ups and downs with 4wd and SCT being my better classes. I kind of blew out in 2wd in the fast round so I have to wait until tomorrrow to redeem.

Zack Genova looked great out there running lap times only slightly off the A qualifer guys. He seems to always finish in the top 3 in his qualifiers so he can be really proud of that. He has a good chance in the truck class of finishing in the top 2 so we’ll see what happens.

Tyler Vik picked up Chris Denney (Tanners dad) late last night at the airport which I appreciated greatly. Tanner has really showed some fantastic speed today on the track and currently sits in 2nd in 2wd and 7th in 4wd. His 2wd run was quite magical.

What else can I really say about today? The racer crowd is definately getting younger and watching the enjoyment these guys are having is refreshing.

Nick Black and the OCRC crowd drove up in the RV from southern California and they appear to be having a blast. Cody Turner is laying down the hot laps and is one of the fastest drivers here while Zack Rogers is really consistent and is at the top of both classes.

Jason Sams from Air Age / RC Car Action is in the house so check out the latest coverage on rccaraction.com.

I met the guys from R/C insider the new website that is all the rage in southern California right now. We did a few interviews so hopefully those come out respectful.

Stay tuned for more photos today and some video action when I return….
