Finally did a test run with the finished Firebird at Springwater raceway on 3-26-'23. Need to fine tune it.
That came out really nice. Great job.

Pics??
better bring your a game every body has gotten way faster than what we were when you last raced. 80 laps runs are the norm anymore..
Been missing your great smile and smooth driving skills at the track there Montie hope you can start making that great drive out on odd Thursday to grace us with your presence...
Well we had a good turn out even with a few die hands not making it out. The racing was great all night lot of side by side racing. Al has taken over duec duties after finishing 2nd in all the races. I'm glad to be able to hand that duty down to him I held the crown for far to long. long live the new Duec.
That is slippery slope that once we get on there no getting off it.. we could use that logic for a bunch of cars if we decided that. So I'm thinking no..
O boy that was some close racing for the top step on the podium... I'm sure Al was asking if you got all his laps counted....
I would of only been a spectator. Don't have a Indy car yet
I THOUGHT about stopping by but the 2 hour drive from canby to stark Street changed my mind.
What time did you all finish up at. I almost came over after my work but figured you all most likely were done or close to it. Would of been around 4pm
The revo slots cars were fun and The racing was very close. A few less offs and it would of been much closer than the final results showed. There were lots of side to side racing lap after lap before some tried to get that little extra and either tipped out or used the old saying 8 tires are better than 4.
The mechanics have gone through and installed new plugs on the big v10 and installed fresh Goodyear eagles on the back of the breathing porsche for good measure. They reported the cars are tuned to a razor edge and it all up to the driver to get the most out of them. Track condition should be good for some really fast lap times come race time. So with that report let get ready to boggedy boggedy boys let's go racing....
Great turn out at Bob last night lots of big smile on every body face for the most part. And no that was a grimacing smile of pain on my face all night. Getting old sucks
Thanks Al for letting me hang out today waiting for the roads to clear enough for me to get home.
Have lots of snow in east Vancouver with still more coming down. Roads weren't to bad at 430 but that going change with it the hard freeze to night. Does not look like it going to warm On Thursday at all. Every body stay safe and warm.
Yes it was indeed wild night. going take me a lot more laps before I get that track down. howie nearly had his car land back at his pit spot with that rider he had...
It was good night of racing even with heated discussions on full size electric cars and other things. I think I had something for Al in gfx but the back up car was not as quick as my primary car. Really weird that photo edged part getting bent and contacting the gear.. all well we are even starting the second half so it anybody championship to win. Going be interesting with a new class part of the points races. See you all in two weeks.
Yes sir looking forward to to great racing tonight. Remember it's not the size or the car that counts it how well it races that matters.. close racing is were it is at..A little jab at those die hard 1/24 guys it all in fun...
Ok thanks Bill. The body came out great. Should be real real real easy to see it go around the track. Sunglasses may be needed.
I was looking through the pics and see that there was alot of cars that had the front glass instead of the screen mesh. Does it matter and what are you guys using any ways? have a body all done just need to get a driver tray and mount it to a chassis? holding off with the windshield till i hear back on my question.
And asking for a friend... Is there a class in which the Revoslot Alfa's, Escorts, and BMW's are legal?
Only class would be open. I don't they would be able to hang with what guys are running in that class. if enough guys in the club want to race them, we would have to make the rules and drop a class to bring those in. I believe are trying to put a cap on how many classes we run for the year. so it would have to be for the next race season before we could get them in. but nothing set in stone either. .
Checking on the new Revoslot class, is the 911 GT1 not legal?
revo slot gt so yes it good to go
Yes Elliot pick up the track pretty quickly. The hook is set nice a deep.he never getting out of these rabbit hole.... Al held par in pge and finished one spot ahead of me again. I seem to have a better car in gfx so the points battle is back and forth. One more race with the gfx cars and the new rule package takes effect. I think Al said we will be running Revo slots and old school rules tans am as the next two point classes. It should be interesting seeing how guys wrap there heads around the revo slots. Not to much one can do. Think it going to come down to who makes the least number of mistakes for 9 minutes. Even Thursday Bill's next week. all in all ir was good night of racing.
It was a great night of racing had new face show up to do battle and a old face that not been out to race for some time but still as fast as always.
up 1st was a class change. gt3 os what on the list but we a had bunch of guys that failed to read the schedule at left the gt3 cars at home so a quick count of cars and it was set that these would be the 1st race for the revo slot class. it was good showing and everybody seemed to enjoy the cars doc to the win followed by al and then rico. next was the pge class. Chris took the win with elbows out Al followed by Doc half a lap back. Last race of the night was open, and Doc came screaming back from the let down in pge and smoked the field with a new track record of 85.9 that was it for the night and it was test tune for those that stuck around after the last race.
