We have the JConcepts Clash report online now - http://www.oople.com/rc/photos/clash2008/ (http://www.oople.com/forums/../rc/photos/clash2008/)

The first day was somewhat of a washout with heavy rains putting an early end to practice - hopefully qualifying won't be affected too badly.
Our race report will be updated as and when we get chance.

well... 2 days without oOple:eh?: Havin an ace time :D it's 2am here :woot: ive just got in from the club :drool: Police came in so i went :o Luckily i hadnt been drinking... much:lol:

Qualifying finished today, they dropped the last round because there isnt going to be enough time to run all 4 rounds.

Made the A-main in 4wd, 6th on the grid, 7th in the A-main in truck and have struggled a bit in 2wd and ive ended up B9. I can still bump up... if im missioning ;)

[Albertini]

I'm struggling to get my head round the results/classes but did Ben and several others miss the 2wd B? Paul Bradby miss the 2wd A .....or have I got that all wrong?:blush:

[mattym0310]

nope, you've got that bang on :)

[kropy]

Your reading it right

[Albertini]

My guess is we'll here abit more about that in the report overnight ( which have been great by the way), I think they may be in for a ribbing.:lol:

Saying that though, it looked like a successfull trip on the whole and a lot of fun no doubt.:D

[Lee]

Yes i think there was a split in the UK team and some got separated and hence missed the finals, and words will be had :lol:

[Richard Lowe]

I think Bradders started the 2wd A but broke on the first lap.

My rear shock exploded in the second half of the 4wd final so I couldn't land the jumps properly, then I snapped a cvd trying to catch Pidge so I had 3wd and couldn't clear the jumps anyway :(

[Gayo]

Who wrote the hilarious report? Awesome!:thumbsup:

[jimmy]

Vicky oOple and some by James Helliwell I beleive - day 4 is coming!

[Andy Moore]

I cant wait to check out the last days report!

[jimmy]

Vickys working on it now, I think Helliwell's done some nice reports of the finals and there's some interviews and things in there. Vicky's gonna finish it up this evening (florida time) and hopefully it'll be on tonight - we'll get a bit of a gallery up when she gets back as well. :woot:

[Chrislong]

She's done great work with the reporting. :)

Whats the story with the missed finals? :eh?:

[jimmy]

some confusion with times apparently - the guys who were in A finals were ok but anything else I think our boys missed. Lowe was there at the crack of dawn tho cos he's keen!

[Northy]

Good point Tel.

Anyway - good to see that the boys took a Sunshine club member (Ben) with them. That really is taking "care in the community" to a new level :)

They deserve a medal.

Keep up the retard poses Ben - they suit you ;)

EDIT - and is it cos Bradders is black? Booooo yaa

[Mrs oOple]

Evening all,
Just arrived back in sunny england, I'm tucked up in bed wearing Jimmys wooly hat, yay. I'm not here to sleep though - I'm warming my extremities and going to tidy up the race report.
Sorry that it's been slightly delayed, there is so much ace stuff to get in there that I wanted it all done before the final edition goes live - day 3 will be altered slightly also. I am very confident that you'll feel the final result is worth the wait :)

Had an awesome time in Miami, the clash was a really good event to attend with a great bunch of people, met some really nice dudes n stuff.
I do need to go back to Miami though because there is some shopping that I didn't get chance to do :cry:

More madness to come soon,

PEAS

[Chrislong]

Did you discover the club called Bed? I think it is at Long Beach. Think Vermin would have liked it in there :lol:

[woOdy]

I want to know if Jimmy went? (insert lots of personal information here! lol)

[ben]

Back home now :( :cry: The sun stayed in miami :bored::p

Had a brilliant week away, thanks to jason and the team for putting on a great event, might have to slip back next year:eh?:

Also nice to meet, Tim, J-RO, Maifield, P-dub, jimmy " top em off, top em off!!" and Josh, Brandon from Live rc :thumbsup:

Thanks Ben:D

[jimmy]

No:lol::lol: sadly I couldn't make it over this time :lol:

[Richard Lowe]
