Nice!

I well know the thrill of seeing a new product come to fruition.

Gotta love those contrarians.

Good choice Doc.  If I redo any of my landscaping I'm going with the static grass.

Oh, that was sarcasm.  I had to think about it for a minute.

Yes, it looks like you are using a solid rod rather than tubes.  Did you decide one over the other or that's just what you used?

Zack - rod rather than tube?  Bend issue?

I've got a great internet connection and bi-weekly guitar lessons.  I'm good.

Ya'll stay safe and we'll see you when the conditions improve.

Yup. spent a lot of time running on that track and knew Bill and Carol Heilers well.  They eventually added a second smaller track to the building.  When the track finally closed in St. Helens they moved the smaller track to Vernonia and operated it there for some months.  And that's where we raced the midgets with the rule you could come off and get put back on but if you rolled you were out.  So we're racing Midgets and I nerf Bill, his car rolls and out he goes.  Next thing I know he lassoes my feet with his controller cord, gives a little tug and over my car goes.  Locals all laughed.  That was ok, even then I realized the locals should get the glory not the hot shots from St. Helens.

Good times for sure.

Memories...

I have one car that was built with the help of Bob - a Chaparral 2D.  The chassis is a thing of beauty as was Bob.  We worked it over a couple of sessions.  He was helpful as could be to the fumble-fingered one.

Do they scratch-build in heaven?

Pick a night and we can broadcast it to the group using the weekly scheduler.

I'll make it if I can.  Thought I'm guessing some would prefer I just keep making tires.
