I used my XR3000 for the Dublin Outlaw race yesterday and it performed flawlessly for 6+ hours. The batteries appear to have plenty of juice left. I highly recommend this timer....um, that's all for now.

Tom Thompson

When I was riding standard trucks, for tight slalom I heavily wedged my front truck and slightly de-wedged the rear truck.

Stanziale told you right.....EXPERIMENT till you find what works best for you.

I assume you do understand what purpose wedging and dewedging serves?

Tom Thompson

For the Ga. Outlaw......sweeet!

Wesley, I'll see you there on Saturday...or Sunday.

Tom Thompson

Chiill Skateboards supports grassroots racing. Damn right! It gets no higher than that brothers. T.A. Chris.

Tom Thompson

Yes, absolutely. Erin Office Park is about 1 mile from Fred's. It would be good for duels. But honestly, it just doesn't have the appeal Fred's does. The surface is a little rougher, speeds are slower, and the runout can be gnarly. Actually, I'd like to run duels at Fred's like you, Ron, and I did. ...

Tom Thompson

Closed on Saturdays and Sundays. Light traffic in and out on Saturdays. Almost none on Sundays. That's why I picked Sunday for the race. The place is a distro center, not a store....

Yes, I skate there on Saturdays, no problem.....

FRED'S

E me if your up for a pre-race session.

Tom Thompson

It was sunny and 70 degrees here earlier today, so my better half and I went out to Fred's and set THE course. The start distance will be a non-issue. The first 2/3rds of the course is very technical and features a taste of everything. The end is a ballzout wigglefest. Cone spacing is 6.5'-12' as ad...

Tom Thompson

First I want to thank everyone for signing up! I'm humbled that you guys are willing to make the trip to Georgia for a simple outlaw gathering. This is my first stab at anything of this sort. I promise to try my very best to make it worth the trip for all of you. Vendors are starting to step up and ...

Big thanks to Longboards By Fatboy, Chiill Skateboards, Skaterbuilt, and Pleasure Tool Bearings for stepping up and donating prizes.

Cool Marion, surely won't hurt! Keith's coming but not skating, still healing. Bobby's in if he can get off of work. Strong possibility that Mr. Radikal's sending a gift certificate!!

Hey Marion - got the timer covered bro. Just bring the crew and let's ROCK!

Tom Thompson

Hey guys, don't mean to butt into your thread...but I'm going to anyway :) I'm putting on an outlaw race in Dublin, GA. on 1/15. I know we're quite a distance from you guys, but I still want to extend an invitation to the DC crew. You guys inspired us to start putting on winter outlaw races here in ...

Well said Justin....

Cool Lenny! We'd love to have ya.

Tom Thompson

A-ight guys, I've chosen Jan. 15 for the Dublin outlaw at Fred's. I'm calling it the 1st Shamrock Outlaw. I picked Sunday because there appears to be less/no traffic in and out of Fred's on Sundays. Race format has yet to be determined. You can count on it being challenging and you can expect a new ...

Tom Thompson

Hi Mike - cash, but I will consider a trade for a similar sized stiff(er) foamcore.

Tom Thompson

Now accepting offers before it hits the bay this weekend. Xmas is 16 days away! PPS STS Foamcore for tight slalom. 28.5" x 8.375", 17.5" & 18" wheelbases, medium flex 145-175 lb. range, very light camber (around .375"). The foam wedge will be included. It's been applied and removed. If you choose to...

This hill is the entrance to a FRED'S Distribution Center. It's about 1 mile from my permission spot. I've skated it a couple of times with no problems. The center appears to be closed and car/bust free on weekends. This hill is butter smooth, long, and deceptively fast. Perfect for the 100 cone out...

Great! Trade and Suwanee rule. There's two races right there!

Wesley, what about Exit 46?....hunters?? Not to shoot down the Bus Station idea, mind you....

I'll pick a date for Mid-January in Dublin.

Tom Thompson

I propose we try this out. I know the idea has been tossed around for the past few winters... 3 or 4 races starting in January and running till March or April. Either hold each race in different locations, or have all races in one location. Personally, I like the idea of having them all in one kille...

First off, this is the best race site find between Maryland and Florida...make it easier on yourself as far as setting up is concerned...and just do an unlimited push start...as one gets used to the course,hill,speed one can start higher up on the hill.

jd, the voice of reason.....

Tom Thompson

I'm an advocate for being given the option of an unlimited push start, or at least as much of one as the hill will provide. At the same time, I completely understand Marion's safety concerns. The initial drop at Hobby Hill is MONSTER! I suggest this compromise: Bring one of the start ramps from Satu...
