eHZ (Winter Haven, FL.)
Had a open weekend, 70 mile drive to race toy cars! :-)
A couple Slash drivers were having a problem getting their Slash's to handle right. They didn't seem to willing to listen to me until I out TQ'd the local fast guy!!!!!!! Then they listened, but only one made the changes and was fast enough to make the A-main.
NOT every RC wish is for a RC or a part. Some RC wishes are for the knowledge to set up a RC.
This racer told me just before the main that he qual'd four places better then ever before against the same racers!!!
As I was packing my car (Toyota) to leave, this racer stop in the middle of the road beside me and THANKED me again for the assist!!! 70 miles one way to make a RC wish, can't put a price on that!!! :-)

FZRC (Sarasota, FL.)
Was at FZ for round 5 of the Spring Series, they redesigned about 50% of the track and that half of the track didn't have the rubber down for a "Grooved" surface. This means half the track is a tire eater!!! Jim told me "You will need 3 sets of tire today". I laughed to myself!!!
Had GREAT traction for about half the first qual, thought the track needed to have the dust blown off, until I picked my the T4 after that qual, the NEW tires were BALD!!! Had left my other set at home so I put a set of SC tires on the rear for the second qual.
I checked the hobby shop and they didn't have any ST tires so I checked with Erik (he is the guy that painted the Rustler body for us) to see he he had a set I could buy. He had a extra set of JC Barcodes. Asked how much, he said for you nothing, your RC wish is made!!! :-)
As you know I'm normally the person giving out RC stuff, NOT getting it for me!!!
