Looks like a blast, Jeff!!! Ran the 1/8 a couple seasons, then they shut the dang place down. Bummer, Never broke anything though, you're right.. The last 1/8 just builds speed and wears out parts... I think my time on the short track also made me really work on 60' times, learned a lot about launching right and consistent. With no big end to pull it out on you had to have great short times!!!
