there were 8 micros in the micro class, including me of course! (they mixed the stock and pro classes) these were the only ones out there. again, mines not there because my bodies were horrible looking, ugly yellow C5R

this was the Nitro Modified B main. i made the C main but no one showed up so the bumped me to the B main. i never started the race thought, my car was busted by the first practice lap :D thats me on the vary end on the left of the drivers stand. that SUPER nice guy named Ray took my car and ran to his pitts to fix it. he just got it fix and when he put it on the tack the anouncer said that the racers were on the last lap :( so i didnt even start the race. for some reson, if you look at the race results at the HPI web site 1( www.hpiracing.com ) it says i got 1st in the nitro C main anyway :D

I was there, I was running the black NSX if you remember, that picture of the c-main is in fact not the c-main, but the last round of qualifying for nitro pro saturday evening. All in all, it was an awesome weekend, IT WAS JUST TOO HOT!!!
in the complete picture showing off all the cars and racers, I am the guy holding up his arms in the back row towards the right side!

Do you have any more pics of the top 4 Concours cars? I painted the yellow/red/blue escudo. Also do you have any pics of my buddy Mike Armocida Jr's white Savage. He won the Savage A main.
If so, send them to my email. blacktiger355@hotmail.com

Nice pictures. Also, you finished first in C main because you were the only car in it I am guessing.
Blacktiger-this is a picture of your car I think.

nice escudo, but personally i dont think that orange/grey car should have won, the blue and white stratus looks best if you ask me.
HPI_freak
08-13-2005, 06:23 PM
no dude, that mustang won by a land slide. its an AMAZING paint job. i have never seen anything like it. you cant really tell in the pictures. the grey part had this really cool look of like metalic rust and metalic silver like......i dont know, it was like he dipped thin paint bruches in the colors then flicked the paint on. it was truly amazing, words cant describe it.
as for more photos, sorry thats it. and your friend that won the Savage A main, isnt the white truck with the jesus face it?

yeah right man, I was right there watching the concourse, the only reason he won, and the escudo didnt get it, was because the guy who won the concourse, his friend kept holding the car up and showing it off to the officials, that was B.S man, it should have been between the escudo, and the stratus, the mustang DIDNT look that good

he also didnt even run it at all, during qualifiers, or mains, which constitutes a disqualification by HPI rules, the body you used for concourse, must be used for at least 1 round of qualifying, or during a main, and it didnt go out once
