I just got a press release from Grand Motorsports about their new Wheelie Bar! Here is the press release:

Grand Motorsports Advanced Wheelie Bar System
Grand Motorsports announces the release of their new shock-loaded wheelie bar system. Designed to allow optimum weight transfer under acceleration, the new GMS wheelie bar system allows you to tune and control your launch by absorbing the energy of a wheelstand without unloading one (or both) rear tires. Grand Motorsports new wheelie bar system utilizes a standard Team Associated 1:18 scale shock, so many different spring and shock oil combinations are readily available. The graphite ladder-style bars pivot on dual high-grade ball bearings for smooth operation.

Available July 1, List Price $109.99, Will be available on the Grand Motorsports website for $79.

What a weekend! This was the Season Opener of the Midwest RC Drag Racing Season! With some luck on my side, I won the Extreme Dragster class! It wasn’t really the way I wanted to win, but I’ll take what I can get. The amazing news is that ticket on the right side there. Stangrey had a 106mph run! It was like a bullet! Sadly, that same run, I was his competition and crossed the finish line in the air while ripping some of the wires out of my speed control!

There were a few new people at the event including people from Wisconsin and Missouri! Hopefully they make some of the upcoming events as well. The more new people to the sport the better! (Driver from MO, if you are reading this, drop me an email.. I didn’t catch your name.)

G and his group did a AWESOME job on the floor of the track! Both the drag track and the on-road track were spotless and tight! Great work guys!

Here are a few pictures I snapped at the event. Hopefully will get some video cut in the future.
