    Those old back up and turn cars… My dog ate the cord that connected to the controller. Then my buddy had a real Traxxis buggy and I “accidentally” ran it over with my Huffy.

    I had a day dream the other day of a track behind my shop and one behind KCW.  Groomed to perfection, stadium lights, billboard transponder timing, nerd fights and all.

    I miss it sometimes but I remember feeling more consumed with addiction than any drug, strip club, or form of racing I have ever experienced. It probably didn’t help that every time I hit the track I was Snoop/ George Jones level intoxicated and I thought breaking shit was equal to winning. Needless to say when I graduated to flying planes that did not last long but holy shit is it fun to scream KOMAKAZI as you dive bomb under an easy up canopy making people scatter like mass shooting victims.  Yeah, I had to give up RC.  But sometimes I day dream…

    I love cookies! What are the rules for this competition? I don’t think Oreos stand a chance but that is my van camping go to. If Rach had an oven in our vanagon …

    I got the old turd fired up this weekend and was a bit sheepish to find leaky fuel lines in the engine bay and a leaky vacuum hose on the fuel psi solenoid thingy. The previous owner said he just replaced all the fuel lines but I should have known. The hose was cheap and probably another ethanol victim. Maybe sitting for two years helped exasperate the problem or maybe I was just too retarded to spot the leak before under the alternator where the hose gets nice and cooked. I replaced the lines with expensive ass Gates 30r14, the high psi shit. Now to do some test driving (with a new fire ext. under the seat) and hopefully the old ‘James Brown’ shitbox will be up for a road trip or ten or twenty.

    One less SxS. I love it. I have always wanted to shred the dunes. I grew up watching all the Crusty dirtbike videos but I ended up at the race tracks and I have not ever gotten to spoon on a paddle tire to my dirtbike and launch it. One of these days I will make it out for a fun weekend of nothing but carving and sending some big booters.  I have raced off road races at Sand Hollow and Pismo Beach with knobby tires per the rules. All the SxS are like cockroaches. A VW sand rail is pure old school badass! A concoction of homebrew hot rod righteousness. Hero shit JJ!
