Can anyone tell me if the tires for the powderpuff race come with foams?

Mike,
My son was wondering if there was going to be a mini-t track again this year? See you all in 3.5 days.

The tires from Panther do come with the stock panther foams. This year we will have a fleet of Traxxas slashes instead on the Mini-Ts and will be doing rentals and running races for the kids in the pole building.

When I updated my profile on rcsignup.com it took my name off of the preregistered list for the 1/10th mod class, is there anyway to make sure you still have my entry information? Thanks Jeremy Bertsinger

To Mike and all of the FHF crew,
Another outstanding job done by all of you. The track was once again a very fun layout. The racing was very intense yet very fun. I can not wait until next year. Have the calendar setup and already counting down the days. This is going to continue to get bigger every year as I am sure that Cody King, Ryan Maifield, and others will go back home and tell their friends about this event. Keep up the great work and will see you next year.

THANKS Mike & FHF crew!
I had a GREAT time. Racing was the best met some new people and everyone was as friendly as ever. I want to thank everyone that helped me out . Having nice and friendly people helping me with my Trucks make the problems more bearable. Always hearing don't worry we will get you back in the race. Thanks to Steve Slayden (Traxxas) for taking the time out when he was working on his Truck to help me with mine giving me valuable tips wrenching on my Truck and tuning it to prefection. Steve has a coolwrite up on his page at the Traxxas sight. Thanks for your REVO body. Great souvenier. Can't wait until next year.

Thanks everyone who joined us at this years newly named RC X Fest V !! This years event was a little more stressful than usual knowing that we had 3 of the top drivers in country . It was awesome to see these guys tear up the track and what was even more fun was to get to know them off the track as well! Tamiya’s Ryan Lutz is one of the nicest guys you’ll ever meet, he was here to have fun at the X Fest! He looked like he had the Pro Buggy A main all wrapped up, he flamed out with a few minutes to go and ended up second, he came off the stand with a huge smile on his face and I said to him that really sucked, he just smiled and said it was a great race and he’ll try again next year! Ryan also took his Truggy in the Spuds again this year, launched it off the mountain in the big air contest and went out to play spoiler in the Last Man Standing Race! He is all about having fun at this event and to top it off Monday he teamed up with the Loosenuts Team and with Mike Overman driving Gas Truck, Tony Sletten driving the Truggy and Ryan and his Buggy they won the 2 hour Team Race. Team Kyosho’s Cody and Paul King were awesome, Cody drove that Truggy like he stole it! Keep your eyes on this kid, he is fearless and is only going to get faster! Paul King is a master mechanic with these cars. He was super nice and helped numerous people all weekend with any kind of questions about there vehicles and I believe he even rebuilt a motor or two for some lucky racers. Asocciated’s Ryan Maifield was as awesome off the track as he was on the track. The guy can drive a RC like no other and was the life on the party in pits. He made a lot of new friends here and was allways ready to B.S. about anything with anyone! Traxxas’s Steve Slayden joined us this year and was checking out our competition in the Monster Truck class. Steve spent more time this weekend wrenching on other peoples vehicles than his own! He helped get more people dialed in on the track than I have ever seen before, just ask Rico!! He still managed to go out and win the MT class, and also dominated the Open Slash class with his box stock Slash on Friday night. I learned a lot watching and hanging out with these pros for the weekend, first off … I will NEVER be as fast as they are! But to watch them practicing, racing and wrenching, they are hard core and to see all the set up changes they try was simple awesome. Maifield would have his cars torn completely down 10 minutes after his race was over and spit shined and ready to go in no time. It was a absolute pleasure having these guys here, but the real thanks go out to all the racers who came out and raced this year, and especially to those that have supported this race year after year. So many people helped out this year and that’s exactly what I need to help keep this event going. I know there was some rumors going around about this being the last year, but not to worry, RC X Fest VI is on!
