Hats off to the electric team for a great effort in preparation and execution, you were in contention for a while i'm sure you will come back with more firepower next time.

Now that we have had this 6 hour race we know that you need to get past 500 laps to have a shot at taking this race. CRC drove the equivalent of 5016 laps or 150 KM
Hi gang,

Joe, Molly, Jay and the Hardcore crew, thanks for a great event. The Enduro race was really a good time and the Rome, NY based CRC guys really had a ball. Track was great, mother natured tried to give us trouble but in the end, it was perfect. Tough conditions for a tough race. Sun, cold, rain, mud, slippery, high grip... we seen it all in 6 hours. It was awesome!

I give credit to my teammates Brian, John and Mark that had to wake up at 3 AM to attend the event, that alarm clock must have been hated!

Also, awesome job by the electric guys, kept the car going in contention, fanatastic run. Congrats to all the racers and teams, it was a good time.

We were very lucky to keep everything going for 6 hours. In fact, we did not have any mechanical failures at all. The one early problem we had was self-induced as we tried to use a drill for quick tire change and stripped the threads. No flame outs, no plug problems, no servo issues, no diff issues, no clutch problems, simply had a practically perfect enduro race and we are quite fortunate and lucky to pull it off. I would like to thank the companies we work with for the great equipment, Losi, Dynamite, Spektrum, AKA and CRC!

Thanks again and hope to see all my Canadian and western NY friends racing next season!

A 24 hour race would be AWESOME!!!!

007 I also would like to thank EVERYONE involved. Joe,Molly and Jay for hosting all of us and for all the teams for providing such tight competition. It was a great way to come back after 4 months of not racing!!

Jamie James What a great day! I had a blast. Thanks to all the racers for making this a great event.

The Caster Ebuggy was right in the mix for a good part of the race. A loose connection in the ESC lead meant an ESC swap was needed and took us out of 3rd place where we had been running for a while.

I would like to thank the rest of the Caster team for a great race

A HUGE Thank You to Jay , Joe and Mollie for another great season.

Congrats to all the winners!

Can't wait until next season.



Oh and Joe...I love the ebuggy showdown idea :GRIN: I'm in.

Caster has proven 2 years in a row that this platform can lay it down and that we have the people to make it happen. who's up for the challenge?
