[DRIVNMF]

OH MY! I'm getting giddy.

I can't wait for the first "tone" to drop and the first ever indoor RECON Terra-X is under way!!!

Dan W., what's under your skirt? Thong Depends???

Opps, my bad. What's under "The Wraiths" skirt???



I'm going to give you the "Terra-down" on my predicitions.

The RECON Terra-X 1.9 Class -

This is the toughest class because of tire to horse power ratio and the sheer excitment of close racing. Nerves will be an issue as drivers battle the track and each other, but the driver who excels in technical areas may get swallowed up in the straights by the brushless systems. So I'm going to go with the 2012 Axialfest Terra-X Champion, Skeeno.


The RECON Terra-X 2.2 Class -

It should be an obvious choice, as Dan W. and The Wraith have built a reputation of dominance. Even through adverity, but I have to go with the hungry IFS rig of frdtrkguy. But you can't rule out two of the most experienced Wraith drivers on the Planet; Cushdog & Madtrouter. Their knowledge of their Wraiths in all types of conditions make them a real threat. This class is going to be pure adrenalinized racing at its most inner core for podium thirst.



The Go-Phast Class is up in the air for me. The 2012 Axialfest Exo Terra Buggy Champion, Ty@Tekin would be a solid pick, but I'm not sure if this dog is in the hunt. Nissan_driver could handle the speed and flight time, so he would be be a front runner. My obvious pick would be Team TWERK Driver and Big Island Banana Hammock Model, DTP, but due to a photo shoot for the upcoming transparent testes tamer line of thongs, he can't make it. So I'm going to have to go with Brokennib. His Exo Terra Buggy is BAD! His driving prowess is as agessive as Danica Patrick's divorce attorney. So DO Work, Mr. Goris!


The SC 2wd/4wd is wide open. If Josh Harris was here, he would be in it to win it and the odds on favorite. From the South and faster than a opposum on oppiates, Josh would tame the RECON Terra-X. I am going to have to go with any home town hero for the win. There are not many California SC racers in the line up and I am sure it's a fear factor thing. Maybe more tarmac with less speed bumps would comfort them, but this is a RECON Terra-X, not your preeeety little pre-runner with glass front end and a squatty rear with 22's that you take to the grocery store.

A Nevada "real man" short course driver for the win in each class!!! Unless those fast chicks show up from LSR. Oh my! I think they might "WOW" themselves for a podium sweep!


See ya in a day and a wake up!!!!

[DRIVNMF]

I am coming un-corked for the RECON G6 Terra-X.
I hope ya'll don't mind rubbin' a little lexan with a racer that has fast in his name...



That's right, racers. The Official Bearings of the RECON G6 & RECON G6 Terra-X, Fast Eddy Bearings, will be shredding up the Terra-X track. I just want to know how many classes will we be seeing this seasoned racer line up in.
It's fast and it's real and it just got real, fast!
OH MY, this is going to be FUN!!!

[DRIVNMF]

Here is a link to some pics that rangeair's wife took, enjoy.

Race results and recap on the way.

[DRIVNMF]

The RECON G6 Terra-X made its indoor debut at Traction Raceway & Hobbies in Reno, NV. With pogo nip, cool fog, blanketing the Northern Nevada valleys like the uncertainty of what to expect from a RECON G6 Terra-X. G6'ers and racers filled the Traction Raceway and Hobby shop; it became evident what to expect, racing and a lot of it.



Of course, with obstacles like the "Outta Track Experience" & Clickity Clack Corner; the racing was going to be just a tad bit different than the normal day at Nevada's largest indoor r/c clay race track.




Terra-X racers had several classes to choose from or race in all of them if they wanted to, because corner marshals are provided at a RECON Terra-X race. Two of the RECON G6 Terra-X classes derive straight from the RECON G6. They are the 1.9 & the 2.2 classes. G6'ers brought their Adventurist G-Rides out to race and others brought their 2.2, err training wheel G-Rides to the track. It was cool, some racers did some "race prep" to better prepare for the days racing action.






The Go-Phast Classes in the RECON G6 Terra-X at Traction Raceway included the Axial Exo Terra Buggy and SC 2wd/4wd trucks. OH MY, did they get some air time.

You see, what makes a RECON G6 Terra-X race so unique, is that there are two tracks in one. Depending on what class is racing, depends on what track version they race on. The Go-Phast class gets to stretch the legs on their brushless systems and blow a shock or two as they launch 20 to 40 feet at an altitude of 8 to 12 feet. The 1.9 and 2.2 classes faced rock gardens, mud pits, and faux grass hill climbs.

The racing consisted of 2, 8 minute heat races for the 1.9 / 2.2 classes and a 12 min main and the Go-Phast class raced 2 heats at 10 minutes each and had a 15 minute main. Attrition was the word for the day and most racers kept their trucks together. I was amazed at the talent that everyone had. Every race was very competitive and by the roar of the spectators, racers in every class made some new fans.

Some of the highlights of the day included, Dan W. and the Wraith. Heat one, Dan piloted one of the toughest Wraiths built around the track with a driver side front wheel, free spinning. Then in heat race 2, The Wraith had only the front passenger wheel pulling. Dan W. raced with one wheel drive. Werty was launching HUGE air and almost down siding a 45ft quad! He greneded a passenger side shock and still finished the heat.Having Team Vanquish in the house was a highlight. Jim, Elio, Dan, & the latest r/c force to be reckoned with; RECON G6 Ultra phenom, Mike Pham. For sure, a highlight any day of the week is the talented Andrew Rocha. This kid can flat out drive! It must be in the school milk, because another driver that was amazing to watch race was Katin Meeks. He piloted a Team Associated B4.1 in the Go-Phast class with authority! Just impressive, the new school of r/c racers coming up through the ranks.

Another highlight was Ed Knapp racing a bone stock Axial Jeep JK Rubicon to the podium in the 1.9 Class.



Congrats to everyone who came out and raced in the first indoor RECON G6 Terra-X. Here are your podium finishers.

The thrill of racing in a RECON G6 Terra-X...









and the OH MY factor of racing in a RECON G6 Terra-X.

[DRIVNMF]

How exciting is a RECON G6 Terra-X race, so exciting that even I laughed and had so much fun that I forgot who was driving what.

Correction on the RECON G6 Terra-X 1.9 Class 3rd place truck...

Dave Morgan drove an AXIAL RIDGECREST with an HR Chassis Kit. The true beauty of this rig is Dave's custom work. Check it out at the next RECON G6 Terra-X or hound him for some build pics.



Congratulations, again Dave and sorry about the mix up!
