Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

Fernando was going to run his Ninco until Monte offered his Thunderslot. I believe that Fernando has been taken by the dark side now.

Monte, I've been working on building a car that could compete against the Thunderslot. After driving Chris's I realized how far yet I have to go. I haven't given up though. When I ordered a new car I also ordered extra wheels and tires for my scratchbuilds.

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

Happy New Year Doc, and to all the rest of you former Rug Racers too.

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

Doc, I put that chassis under my CLK, and with a Flat 6 motor it was about as fast as the 956s and 962s, but with the body being heavier I couldn't get thru the curves as quick as the other guys, but that might be my driving style. Without Goose or Monte to lean on I had to go slower.

I took it apart so many times trying to get that extra little something out of it that I eventually broke the chassis. By then the body post were stripped and broken and in a moment of trying to clean the work bench it got tossed.

Best $8 eBay purchase I ever made even though I spent countless $$$ trying to make it go faster than it was ever meant to be.

Yes you did Doc

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

The racer previously known  has Doc will be Will be address  with the #2nd from this day forward.I hope this does not confuse any body or make them think any less of me. THIS is only a expression  of creatively and is not to be confused with the fact that I can't buy a win.

Somebody has to be the FIRST LOSER Doc.........I mean #2!..........you do realize that is the same designation as poop, right?

Al, thanks for the racing last night! It was great to see all my friends and to meet some new racers!

Maybe we should call him "Doc Deuce"?





Hang on...  I just realized that's not much better!

Thanks for an excellent night of racing.  If the wire on The Deuce's Camaro hadn't had an issue, he would have easily taken top slot in TA last night.  He was off fetching another car for at least a lap or two and I only beat him by a tenth.  He'll be tough to beat when TA comes around for points!

It seems to be contagious... 

When I got home last night, I did a bit of a scrub of the house.  Guess what I found?  Yes, in a place where it was totally not supposed to be, I found my DiFalco.

All is right with the world now.

Thanks for an excellent night of racing!

That was a fun night.  Looks like I'll need to source a Ford GT.  And no, it won't be red and white.  ;-)

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

I thought I took it home but I guess it's possible.  I'm out of town through Sun but will check when I get back.

Good racing last night.  I had a great couple heats side by side with Al, and the competition up and down the field is pretty tight!
