Hello everyone, just returning home from the 2012 Montonica race held in L.A. @ the Greater L.A. Club. I think there were 87 entries in 1/10 and 1/8 Nitro. Friday was practice all day. The layout was fast and fun especially for 1/10. Don't get me wrong it was big layout and awesome for 1/8 but I ran 1/10 and it was off the hook. Traction was awesome as always especially when you lay down 8 gallons of VHT.
I WOULD LIKE TO THANK Garen the owner of Montonica USA for sponsoring this race, you do not find a much nicer guy in the world and thank you Glenn and the crew for all their hard work they do to keep the club going over r the years and always putting the best races on a s possible. Has always, we also would like to thank the racers for their strong support which you don’t find a lot in r/c with the times that we are all in now. Thank all the Northern Cali guys that came and raced, I think that was the most that traveled in a long time.
Saturday was qualifying and went 4 rounds. We all had a feeling that it was going to rain on Sunday so Garen and Glenn decided to get as much racing as we can in if we don’t race on Sunday. Qualifying was close in both classes till the end.
Greater L.A. club has a lot fast cats and great people.
Congraduations to all the podium finishers.
In 1/10th Mike Swauger (X-RAY NT1) ended up TQ with Steve Perez (MUGEN MTX-5) in 2nd and Garen (X-RAY NT1) in 3rd.
In 1/8th Mike Swauger (X-RAY RX8) TQ with Christian Lopez (SERPENT 733) 2nd and I will have find the results later this week when posted. I will post the results in qualifying order is how they finished due to rain on Sunday.
AWESOME TIME and hope to see you guys in a few months.
Thanks Billy
