What a fun race we had at Howie's last night! The racing was so fast and so close! Most all of the field was posting lap times under 4.7 seconds! That is very fast!

Here's a few photos I snapped.

Was a blast to race this past Saturday!
Great group of cars!
There were some very fast cars out there that we hit with a bit of mechanical issues.

Thanks as always to Howie for hosting fun and competitive racing!

Thank you Howie for hosting yesterday. What fast group of cars, everyone had some fast lap times and a few very close to a new track record. I am just thrilled with my result, probably my best ever race at Rapid Raceway. My car was working really well especially in the curves almost making up what I lost on the main straight. Also thanks to Bill for his reports, pics and videos.

After the race last night ( Nov. 3rd 2018 ) during our BS session it was discussed to run a Porsche 962 race using Blue Groove Lexan bodies and no lights. It would be a special race like the Rapid 500 and the Rapid Grand Prix. I am definitely on board with it. The race could be an annual event like the other two starting in the 2020 season.

The previous posts to this topic were copied over from the Northwest True Scale Racers site with Howie's permission. The NTSR site is scheduled to close down at the end of this year. I will be copying over as much of the great information posted there as possible in the next few months. =====Bill

Race of March 1st. 2014. Only four 962's showed up to race. Gary and Dima raced Can-Am cars. Dima is doing an excellent job of learning the track. Marty overwhelmed us with his super handling and fast Jack Daniels 962, the rest of us have our work cut out to get up to speed with him! Marty and Beau challenged for the track record. Marty won that also with a run of 4.5023 sec. Beau ran a very respectable 4.5167 sec. The two man team enduro was mentioned as a possibility for next season.
