Re: Odd Thursday Night Racing (old thread)

Thanks for another fun filled race from the Saager's.  I had a great time, despite my car troubles.   I cannot promise Police & Fire Department visits next Tuesday but the racing should be good.

Re: Odd Thursday Night Racing (old thread)

Thanks to everyone that came to race last night, the racing was close, especially the GT class.  The long distance award goes to Mike who was in town on business from the SeaTac area.  CU next week at Bill's I believe.

Re: Odd Thursday Night Racing (old thread)

Thanks for hosting such a nice race Bill! It's always great to see so many racers show up! I sure hope you thanked Diane for taking time to bake us those great cookies!

Didn't get too many pictures, but tried to get one of everybody and some of the track too.

Re: Odd Thursday Night Racing (old thread)

You're welcome Bill.  ;~}

Kathy thanks you for your invite too and she's looking forward to coming to a race one of these nights!

Oh! And any time you are in the neighborhood and want a few more tomatoes or cucumbers, please feel free to stop by. I will probably have some in the garden for the next month or two. lol

Re: Odd Thursday Night Racing (old thread)

Very good, you guys can come over anytime! There's a lot of satisfaction in finally seeing cars go around my track after over a year of building!

I planned on having those left over tomatoes during lunch, but they didn't even last until 8:00am! I couldn't help myself and ate them on the drive to work!

Thanks again Dorothy!!!!    --------------------Bill

Re: Odd Thursday Night Racing (old thread)

Thanks for having us over, I had a good time though I may need to work on bringing faster cars.  And how can a scratch-built car be made from a manufactured chassis?  LOL

We may need one more category of construct-ability.

Modified the post, happy now?

Re: Odd Thursday Night Racing (old thread)

If that's true, I'll switch direction next race!!!

Re: Odd Thursday Night Racing (old thread)

Ok, who said that!

Re: Odd Thursday Night Racing (old thread)

Thanks for hosting such a nice race Bill. Please make sure to thank Diane for the cookies too! 

WhooHoo!!!! Lookie there! I made it to the podium last night!!! I raced like I was driving a magnet car! Oh wait, I was. ;~} Get used to it. I'll be driving that magnet car for the rest of my life!!!

Sure was fun though. I didn't get many pictures, but here's the link for them. I did get the new ones labeled 9-11-12 so you can tell them apart. I'm just putting all of Bill's races in the same album at Photobucket. http://s737.photobucket.com/albums/xx14 … 21%202012/

Looking forward to trying out the track in reverse. I'm pretty adaptable, so maybe I have a chance of moving up a space too! ;~}

Thanks again Bill!

Re: Odd Thursday Night Racing (old thread)

Congratulations to the Hammer!  Not just a podium but first place.  Let's hear it for Dorothy.

First Place! Thanks so much for allowing me to win at Too Bad Motors last night! Yes, I was driving a magnet car, but a win is a win!!! HeeHee!

Didn't take too many pictures, but still managed to get one of everyone there. Thanks for hosting Bill. Thanks Diane for the cookies and coffee. Thanks for the mixed nuts Victoria. Thanks Tracy for the cookies!
