Here are three more plus the only shot I got of "The Hobby Shop"

It was a fun day! I wish I could be there next week for the races. Someone will have to cover for me on the camera!

I agree that is a FANTASTIC PHOTO, THANKS AGAIN CHRIS FOR THE GREAT PICS, I hope H20Camel don't plan on racing much as I don't think he could get many photos while holding the TX and camera at the same time, We may have to limit the classes he can run in!!! THANK YOU CHRIS

Dang even at famliy events I get stuck behind the camera and not in the fun!

Well Rod my LSH isn't here yet, The dark horse Neu Moster can't hold a prop to my poor underpowered BBY Ovalmaster and you haven't built me a Psport hydro yet and I can't afford the XXX for sale so I think you have no worries for the Club Photographer competing!

Next race!
Sean you do know that the throttle on your radio is variable instead of and off on micro switch. Or you could buy a new computerized radio with a throttle curve program to help your twitchy trigger finger cope with the stresses or competition racing

Glad to hear it is back up and running

Talking Dark Horse can't beat cameras
Yes but where is the sport in that? The top shutter speed 1/10,000 sec on my camera will always make your boat look like it is sitting still!

I WAS JOKING , it was at full throttle in the straights, but it does scare me on that lake, as for the turns to AFRAID to push it more than about a quarter throttle. especially after its crash last year
