Tandem Highlights - 4/26/08

Just a few highlights from our team session last Saturday.

Team Practice Session

Today we got together for a short practice session. The track layout was tight and technical which made for some nice tandems. Hopefully, next time Terrence will double-check his batteries to make sure they're charged before coming out...

Update

After three weeks of testing I finally started my review of the Tamiya Driftechs. I like them a lot, and a few other people who I let drive my car feel the same way. They're a big improvement over their original Type D tires.

I also got in a set of HPI's new T-Drifts with tread, but I'm not quite sure when I'll get to testing them.
