NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread (Page 63 of 82)

Another picture of the track, I use an electric winch to lift the platform when Im not using it, and I can move it to the center of the garage to have space all around.

Oh yeah Ive seen those, it looks like to make it work as analog you need to cut some wires in that section. Is that a 90°? I dont know if I would like to spend even more on the track, it was quite of a spend last month to do this digital lol how much are you asking for it?

Well what a crazy year so far......... all we are missing is a good old Earthquake to round it out.

Wow damn of course I would like it then. We should setup a race here then, who would be in? Of course just need to wait for after these fires now to go away. Hopefully we will get some rain this next week. Its pretty wet outside today, even with no rain.

As many of you know, I am having my shop/apartment/AirBnb building renovated. Work has been slow going due to a number of things (one contractor pulled out of the project, the "new" contractor got concrete dust in his eyes and had to lay low for 10 days, COVID killed some time, and now wildfires are making air quality so bad that nobody wants to work [can't blame them]). At any rate, since I think the "lockdown" stuff is idiotic and an overreaction, I have been champing at the bit to start racing. As soon as the renovation is done—probably late October—I plan to host a race for anybody brave enough to venture outside without a mask. We just spent 10 days at Disney World in Florida, wearing masks all day long in 90+ degree heat (everyone knows that viruses just THRIVE outdoors in the heat, right?). Not as much fun as you would hope, though the crowds are MUCH smaller and that's a good thing. Let's start racing again!

Hey guys, I am working on trying to get my garage sorted out so we could maybe host a night race over there soon.

I have a couple challenges to overcome before this can happen. But I am hoping before the cold winter months it is an option.

I want to emphasize that I think it is important here to respect those who open up their homes for us to race. I want to race as much as the next guy but it really isn't up to what we are comfortable with at this point. It is up to the track owners and their families and we have to respect that.

That said, starting next month there will be 3 weeks in a row of fast paced 1/24 racing going on. So now might be the time to try your hand at that!

  Yes we dont want to put any pressure on the track owners, when they feel ready to hoist again they will....hopefully there is a vaccine that will  be out shortly and all these crazy crap will behind us and we can get back to normal life again....
sounds like a plan there Zack...  hey the 1/24 stuff looks like fun. just wish I could get some in. but working both saturday and sundays really  screws that up.... come on winning lottery ticket.....

knock knock.. wake up....

"We might have everything done"

Silly Stan, When you own a home and particularly if you're married it's never "done".

just because I can..... got nothing else to do right now.......

I don't think anyone thought we'd be in "lockdown" this long........

I got my first COVID shot today.............so far I'm still alive and I only glow a little when the lights are out and I stand next to the wifi router........

I finally got my first shot scheduled for next Monday ! My hope is to get Odd Thursday's going again maybe in April. Last year we got just to one race past half way through the 2020 schedule. My plan is to continue with that schedule through the summer for points for the 2021 Point Series Championship. I'm eagerly looking forward to racing again !!!
