cool!
I needed to have trained Lee up more so he could resize the pics - he has about 200 so far taken by himself, roundy and cragg. taking ages to upload for him tho so i only have a couple!
oh well... There will be loads of photos when the guys get back for sure - so keep checking back! :D

We were fortunate enough to video Masami's laps. Hope to have it up in a week or so. Can't do anything with it until we get home -- got to burn it to a CD then mail it to Lia.

is that a new body on neil's yokomo?

check out Neils rear shock tower and shock location :p

Isn't the cactus held in Arizona?? I think they are GMT minus 8, so its the middle of the night there now ;)

as it finished if so do we know the results:)

I don't remember what lee said, but it was something like 35+ heats !!!!!!!! so if you only do 1 class, you are racing 2 times a day I think. so basically its on over the next few days, not sure when it finishes tho.

I saw Lee before he left, and i think he said the racing is over 3 days, Friday - Sunday.

The weird thing is that you race 2wd, then not long after your 4wd heat comes round so it's almost like a giant club meeting lol, quite weird to race 2wd then 4wd, then Truck (if you're doing it), then 2wd again etc - you'll need to be able to adapt really quickly i guess?

In some countries, Nats are like that!You run 2wd then 4wd and then Truck, if you compete in those three classes. Guest French Nats are so but not sure!

Anyway, that's not the really point here!

Some pics form today on K-Style:

Masami, the legend... not called the legend for his shell painting skills huh :D

Lee's doing well with the photos huh, you sure he's taking them? I wanna see his car in action, someone else hold the camera for a bit!

BX's leading the way I hope?

its hard for him to send photos (takes ages) so i'll put loads up after the guys get back. But I asked him to get lots of car shots (up close) of the various cars there.
