Lists updated as of April 13, '17 races.
Odd Thursday on April 13th - Fifteen racers turned out on another wet Thursday night. The Trans Am cars were the first to turn a tire on the track. Terry Abbott showed his driving skill by holding off Jeff Fields for the win. Jeff was right on his heels just 2/10 of a lap back. Greg Petrolati finished third just 4/10 behind Jeff.
The next race was the Classic Sports Car Division I group for the point series race. The then current point leader Chris Kouba was not in attendance and his opponents realized this was their opportunity to make up some ground in the point standings. The racing was unbelievably close! Just 5 laps separated the first place finisher from eleventh place! When it was all over Monte Saager had edged out Mitch Brooks by 9/10 of a lap for first place. Following Mitch another 9/10 of a lap back in third, was Dan Fritz. Dan had with a tied lap count with Greg Petrolati. Dan's faster lap time gave him the position over Greg.
For the last race of the night it was decided to give the new GT3 class cars a go. It is obvious this new class is going to provide some very close and competitive racing! In the first race for GT3 Greg Petrolati showed how it is done, winning by 8/10 of a lap over Rico Locati. Fernando Carvalho posted a third place finish 2/10 behind Rico. The racing was so close, of the twelve racers five finished with 50 laps, three with more than 53, and three with more than 46. It was really close racing!
Thanks for coming out to race folks! It was a great time as always for me!

Thanks to everyone that brought snacks!
No need to apologize Beau, I thought it was a good idea too! However our two pups get plenty excited with all the people around and I think it was just overwhelming for them with a new pup added to the mix! I wish we had a dog friendly back yard we could have turned them loose in. I'm sure things would have worked out fine if that were an option!

Thanks to Bob Nakamura for hosting last Saturday's NASTE race. It was another good time at the Gorge Raceway! The two sets of IROC cars were a handful which resulted in some of the closest racing I have ever seen! Thanks Mitch and Tony for letting us abuse your cars!

Thanks to Mitch for these photos of the starting grids from last night's race!
Odd Thursday Night Racing on March 23rd - We had some really tight race at Al's Rippin' Ridin' Raceway last night! First class on the starting grid were the GT cars. This is really a diverse class with sedans all the way up to prototypes competing with each other. This would be NASTE's version of run what ya brung! On this particular night Rico's Fly BMW sedan just squeaked out the win over Al's Porsche 962 by just 2/10ths of a lap. Less than 1 lap separated third through fifth!
Next up were the Classic Sports Cars for the NASTE Point Series Championship Race of the evening. Again we saw ten cars on the grid and the racing was just as close. Chris won the race extending his point lead, with Mitch coming in second, and Monte in third. This class is really shaking up the point standings.
A couple racers had to leave but we still had an impressive grid of eight racers for the start of the BRM Group C race. Rico had an impressive run to finish first with Al three laps behind. Dan followed in third just half a lap behind Al.
The last race of the night was for the Over 50 cars. Mitch again led the way to victory with his very dialed in Classic chassied Porsche 906. Al gave Mitch a good run but finished a lap short of beating Mitch with his KTM powered Cheetah. Fernando had an excellent run with Al's KTM powered Ford GT Roadster finishing fourth!
Welcome to new comer Andy! We hope you had a good time!

The last race on the TooBad track depends on a couple things. 1. If it sells soon. 2. If our house sells before the track does. 3. If it doesn't sell. 4. If our house doesn't sell. 5. If we find a place and I move the track with me.............well, you get the picture............
Thanks Chris,
The track is L shaped with an overall footprint of 17 feet by 15 feet. At the widest point which is where the overpass is, it is 7 feet across. The upper part of the track is 5 feet across, and the lowest portion is 5 1/2 feet across.
