Well isn't that great! Looks like it will be a fun track to run on. BUT just about any track is fun to race on and it's always good to have fun! Don't bust your buttons though Monte since it should be arriving tomorrow and we wouldn't want the excitement to be too much!! ;>}

You spoke and it's happened Monte. Looks like we're going to have more winter. Good thing we enjoyed the sun while it was here!
Sorry Bill. Maybe there will be sun again soon. ;>} Don't hold your breath though!

Yes, a big THANK YOU to Andre and Suzanne for hosting such a fine race. Very gracious hosts, especially Andre for taking it easy on us during the first round of racing. It was good to see so many racers show up and made for a fun evening! Love racing those little cars around the track too.
Have some pix to share. Only took one video, but will get that up later. You're lucky I got the pix done since it's my birthday today and I really don't feel like doing ANY kind of work today. ;>}

Yes, Rico, you are one heck of a great racer and if you'd had the right car, you would really have given Monte a run for his money! ;>}
Got the videos uploaded while I was outside today enjoying the sunshine. Mowing, edging and weeding while the computer did my work for me. lol Had to come post for you, but now I'm headed back outside. Too glorious of a day to spend in front of this screen!

Thanks for a terrific day of racing Monte! Beautiful weather you called up too! ;>} Victoria provided a wonderful spread for us too!
I think Rico will be checking very closely from now on before running his car!
Here are some pix. Videos will follow when I have time. Thanks Tracy for snapping a couple pix of me. You'll have to practice a bit for next time! ;>}

What a great night of racing! Thanks for hosting Bryan! The pizza was terrific and the racing wasn't too shabby either! Nice meeting Sherry! Got only a few pix for you. It's kind of tight quarters for taking them, especially since I'm not all that small. Took one vid too, but it will be uploaded another time! Thanks again! ;>}

Re: NASTE Racing Rules and Format (8 replies, posted in NASTE)
I would also like to form a NASTE Committee. The committe would consist of a small group of dedicated volunteers to coordinate NASTE functions and provide oversite.
One function I would like to suggest would be an award or trophy building day before the season begins.Two topics came up at the NASTE BBQ on Sunday Aug. 22 2010 that are open for discussion.
1). Ideas for trophies for next season. One idea is to have a perpetual trophy listing the names, dates, and tracks for each race winner. After each race the winner would take the trophy home, add something to the trophy, and return with the trophy to the next race. The winner of the next race would then take the trophy home, add something to it, and again return it to the next race. At the end of the season the point series champion would get to keep that trophy, in addition to having the NASTE Point Series Championship Trophy with his or her name added to the nameplate.
A trophy building session was also scheduled for Sunday Oct. 3rd to build some trophies for the individual races.
Did I miss all of this? I don't remember us getting together to build trophy's in October. I believe we still have some stuff in the garage that was going to be used for building them if you still need it.

YW Bill. Know you'll get enough of the local drinks while in Maui, but at least you'll have something local for when you come home. lol
Got the pix uploaded. Videos always seem to take me longer to do, but I'll get them up soon too.

Those cars were GREAT to race! It was such a fun night! Thanks so much for hosting Jeff. Congrats to Dave on his victory!
Congrats to Bill and Terry for coming in a very close second place!
You're welcome Bill. I'm so glad you liked the treats. I saved one of the cars to give to Victoria at the next race. In the mean time though, she'll just have to look at pix.
Yes, I got them all uploaded today. Whew! Long time getting the vids on YouTube. What a way to spend my 24th Anniversary! ;>}
See you all at the next race!

Re: NASTE Race number 4 (6 replies, posted in NASTE)
What a great night of racing! Thanks so much for all the hard work Monte getting that track up and running. I was truly amazed that you got it all done in time. I really liked the layout too! Thank goodness it wasn't just me with that car Monte! lol
Thanks Victoria for that wonderful food! Yummy pizza and I love having a salad to go along. Those brownies were totally gooey too! ;>}
Rico, you did an awesome job getting us so darn close at the end! If you'd had a few more minutes to run that final time, I bet we would have caught them!
You're welcome Bill. I am happy to oblige with the treats and thanks for being guinea pigs with my experiments! Going to try Mary's suggestion with the rum balls for next time.
Got the pix uploaded, but not video yet. Still haven't gotten the first Sunday vids up yet either. Too much to do this time of year. I'll get them up some day though, I promise. Didn't get many shots since I was trying to help with being a corner marshal. Might have worked better if I had stayed behind the camera though.
Thank you Bill and Monte for the 'items'. You two are terrific!
Have a great Christmas and see you all in the New Year!

Thanks for driving us all day Bill. Please thank Greg for the great van. Thought it was John who loaned it to us. Sure hope you got to sleep after that Monster Drink!
I spent almost 30 minutes trying to send a message to you on Facebook this morning. After it finally went through, I realized I could have just come here and posted the picture link! Sheesh! ;>} I'm such a blonde some times. Videos will get uploaded later. Right now we're off to have pizza with my friend Ruben. He's sure looking forward to racing in December at Monte's. Have a great Sunday!
Edited to add video links! Pizza was great and videos uploaded just fine while we were eating.

Thanks Bill! Window seat AND free coffee?!? Boy, that's going to be hard to beat. ;>} Is the window seat closer to the front of the van Bill? Also, what time are we leaving and where do I need to meet up with you for that ride?
Don't worry Monte. I might, and I repeat might, have treats leftover by the time we get to the race. LOL
Oh yeah. It's okay that I don't get shotgun. I plan to bring my plastic canvas project and having a bench seat will probably give me more room. Your seat is safe Rico!

Re: NASTE Race No.3 - November 19, 2011 at Fantasy World Hobbies in Tacoma (36 replies, posted in NASTE)
Shoot! If only I would have registered earlier, I could have called shotgun! ;>} Oh wait, I was already told by Bill that I would have to sit in the way, way back. Oh well, guess that means I get to eat all the treats I bring. I'll be too far away to pass them to anyone. Could I at least have a window seat please?
