Set up begins at 9:30am. Last salvo is fired at 4:00pm

-Bring $5 for Food and drinks (please no $20 bills)
-Bring a lawn chair
-Bring a friend

Anneliese is repaired and ready.

I'll just have to sort out which of the other "kitties" will come and play

Operation: Maple Culler?

I believe Operation: Choclate Glaze was a more successful mission, lead by Cpl. Horton.

Maple Cruller eh? It only seems approprate to showcase Tim's Grizzly 1. I look forward to the battlefield challenge

That's a good point,when you have a great tank like that, why waste ammunition. Besides a little green paint on the tracks will add to the camo

We've all practiced it this summer,
now the time has come to make it official!



Last man rolling, walks away with the trophy and bragging rights for the year!

Remember the rules:
1. Two tanks line up with back ends touch.
2. On the count of 3, race in opposite directions to a line marked on the ground 10' away.
3. After crossing the line the tank may turn and fire on the opposing tank.
4. First tank hit loses and the winner moves on.
5. The final match will be a best of 3.

Happy Shooting!!!



Also in the recent news announced on RCU,
I thought it would be a nice gesture if we dedicated this tournament to Phil of RC Tank Wars, if no one has any objections.

Looks like my dad will be joining me for this Battleday.
He said afraid to drive one of my tanks because he doesn't want to break it. He's obviously never seen me in action!

I can also bring the BBQ again if you guys want to do that lunch.

cool i hope your Dad has a great time take lots of pics don't forget to bring Ed's Tank back with you...lol

How about if I bring my laptop and we can Skyp you into the battle field .....or..... maybe one of the wiz kids can figure a way for you to " remotely " drive a tank on the field . I mean you got to keep your skills up or even some newbe like me will be able to smoke you next time you show up

well if we copuld get Captain Action to work on his Teleporting Machine it might be easier...lol

But you are going to miss out on deep, educational, intellectual, meaningful experiences like this.......

Ya that teleporting machine project of mine is on hold for now...I owe the neighbour a cat, and the pizza delivery man is still mississing too....and a few others...

Its amazzing what fun you could have with a $5 bill ,some string and a teleporting machine in your driveway.



.........and now cheep shots at Indy too..

Not to be a downer, but the weather doesn't look to good for Saturday.

You always say that........

I find that we can't call the weather really accurately until the day before.

So I will think "happy thoughts" about it and keep checking, we won't know with any certainty until Friday evening, IMHO.

If you drove the distance I do you be nervous too!

Do you know anyone in the area looking for a graphic designer
I'll be willing to relocate!

I understand, its one thing to be in the neighbourhood but it would be VERY disappointing to make the 3 or 4 hour drive only to have it rain.


As of early Thurs. morning, here is what one local source has for Sat.;

A chance of showers, mainly before 8am. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 54. Breezy, with a west wind 14 to 22 mph. Chance of precipitation is 30%. New precipitation amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible.

Here is a link for another site: http://www.theweathernetwork.com/weather/caon0247/l2a5a4/E915104

As of right now that's a bit disappointing (chance of rain in the morning, and waiting for a wet field to dry) but we are 48 hours away from the meet and things could change for the better so I will keep checking to see if the forecast improves.

I weed whipped the field on Monday because I would not be able to do it later this week, I also cut the grass, but I think Tim will likely try to cut it again today or tomorrow, weather permitting.
