I'm not sure what kind of plans Kirk has for chassis production. I do know this design works very well!

Topic: the 2024 Patriot 500 at Springwater Raceway! (4 replies, posted in Springwater Raceway)
The 2024-2025 Slot Car racing season is underway. The 2024 edition of The Patriot 500 at Springwater Raceway is in the books. The format this year consisted of a mixed group of hardbody NASCAR classes from PASER, OSCAR and NWTS. All cars were raced together and scored in one of 2 groups: Angle winder or Inline. Each group was scored separately, with the first 3 places in each group receiving an award plaque. The highest lap total overall received a separate plaque. Springwater Raceway always provides close racing, unexpected circumstances and just some plain old bad luck. A BIG thank you to those who came from Seattle WA, Eugene OR and Bend Or. Along with a dedicated local group of racers. Thank you, Cap’t Kirk, for doing Tech and assisting as race director. A total of 17 racers competed on a 6 lane rotation, with 4 minute heats. Each racer had 48 minutes of track time. Captain Chaos won the Racers Choice Award for his #28 Havoline Thunderbird. And now….. The Results:
ANGLE WINDER Class:
Name -- Laps
1st. NakNak (Bob N.) 501.2
2nd. Bartman 415.9
3rd. Mike Guthrie 378.0
INLINE Class:
1st. Prozack 479.6
2nd. Gary Tipton 464.4
3rd, Al (Meat) 443.9

This bank is the same radius, and has the same degree of banking as Inslot's Checkered Flag.
This will be the more challenging end of the track!

There has been a request to allow brushless motors for use in PASER classes. I told the person requesting I would post it up for discussion and let the club members decide. Please post your comments or views here.
