Great race Bob, thanks!
I got a few pictures:
Bob teching cars pre-race. JK chassis are very popular for this class!
The Gorge is without a doubt the most challenging course we compete on!

PASER Monday at Rob's Redline Raceway proved to be a competitive and fun night of racing. Newcomer Steven Page brought a new, out of the box Flexi car and raced here for the first time. Great job Steven. A total of 7 racers braved a cold evening to come and play. Racers were vying for the coveted Weener Winner points that were up for grabs. Both races had close racing for all positions but Rob and Racerbob fought for top dog all night.
One of the great things about local club racing is the willingness to help one another with car prep, repairs and even loaning cars so everyone can race. I apologize for not taking any pictures. Each race ran 1 time through with 4 minute heats.
Here are the final results:
Womps

1. Racerbob 202.6
2. Rob 202.5
3. Steven 183
4. Mike G. 180 Total time tiebreaker

Topic: PASER Womps Alert! (6 replies, posted in PASER)
I know this is going to be hard to believe (it's hard for ME to believe)!
I am totally out of steel Parma Womp chassis (new or used) to sell!
I have only my one car I race and one new in the package vintage chassis (which I will not sell) left. If anyone has a line on used Womps for sale please let me know. I would be interested in buying a lot if the price were right. It appears they have become very popular and a complete car is currently going for around $50 on Ebay. If you have casr you would like to sell yourself I can hook you up with buyers!
We are going to need more cars and chassis to keep this class afloat for furture racing!

Re: NASCAR Race Under the PASER Banner at Inslot's Checkered Flag Raceway! (5 replies, posted in PASER)
After having Firehouse sub sandwhiches for lunch, we got ready for the third and final round. As Race Director I set the line up for the last round. My goal was to have the rotation set in a way that each racer would be side by side with their closest competitor for at least two heats of racing. I believe I succeeded, but I will wait to see and hear the reviews from the racers themselves. Here are the results from the final round:
Final Results:
1st Stuart (Stew Meat) 554 laps
2nd Bob (Nak Nak) 536
3rd Bart 524
4th Mike (Mike G) 514
5th Al (Meat) 502
6th Tim (Tiny) 491
7th Bill 473
8th Howie 454
9th Jerry 453
10th Mark (Skid Mark) 427
11th Hersch 409
12th Austin 340
Kudos go out to Hersch for competing with a Hanna Econo type chassis. A good chassis but clearly not as well handling as the current generation of hardbody chassis. He finished very well with a lesser chassis design.
Kudos to Mike for his excellent finish in his first race with his new chassis. Mike has become an excellent chassis builder! His chassis are well constructed and just plain beautiful!
Kudos to Al for suffereing adversity and sticking with it to finish fifth!
Kudos to Mark who hasn't been at the track for awhile, but got into the groove and drove a solid race!
Kudos to Howie for showing us all that a "Big Wheel" NWTS NASCAR can compete with OSCAR cars!
Kudos to new racer Austin who battled through the race with a new car, and multiple controller switches!
Thanks to Stuart for making it to the race. It is always great to have Stuart in the mix. He is always there to help other racers and lend great advice!
Thanks to Bob for being there and as always supporting all of our racing habits by managing and supplying us with parts and advice!
Thanks to Jerry for your friendliness, attitude, and willingness to help other racers, including loaning out cars and equipment! You're the best Jerry!
Thanks to Bart for being there. In the few years he's been racing with us, Bart has become one of our best competitors! He is a clean racer, and he is always fast!
And last but not least, thanks to Tim! Tim is always there to race, and is now also a track builder! Everybody needs to get over to Tim's and try out his new track!
Well That's about it........Thank you all!

Re: NASCAR Race Under the PASER Banner at Inslot's Checkered Flag Raceway! (5 replies, posted in PASER)
We raced the first and second rounds consecutively. Everyone started getting settled into the track and dialed in for the second round. It was the same leaders out front, but the rest of the field was tightening up. As usual there were some difficulties suffered by some, but nobody was put out of the race. All of the racers that had problems overcame them and returned to race on. Of note was Howie's entry. Howie raced a "Big Wheel" Northwest True Scale spec car. The car featured a fabbed aluminum bolt in motor box. This featured most likely saved him as he was involved in a spectacular wreck! His car deslotted in the bank and as another car was exiting the back at full throttle (OK it was me...) it hit Howie's car sending it airborn into the wall of the next turn. It was amazing the car was not destroyed! After the conclusion of the second round of racing we broke for lunch.
Results after the second round:
Jerry & Hersch.

Topic: NASCAR Race Under the PASER Banner at Inslot's Checkered Flag Raceway! (5 replies, posted in PASER)
Yesterday Inslot's Checkered Flag Raceway hosted a late model NASCAR race. All entries were required to comply with the OSCAR rules for late model NASCAR. 12 racers showed up for the race, some of whom had built cars at the chassis class Stuart Wall put on awhile back. The standard OSCAR format was not used as this was not an official OSCAR race. Instead we raced 3 rounds of 4 minute heats with the starting line up set randomly by the computer. The last round of racing was set by the race director based on the racer's first round finish positions. There was no qualifying period.
From the drop of the green flag it was obvious this was going to be a fast group of race cars! Like them or not, I believe everyone would agree these are some fast, excellent handling, hardbody slot cars! Lee Dundas Sr. and Bob McFarland truly lead us into the promised land of hardbody slot car racing! These cars are unique to Oregon and now southern Washington. They are not raced anywhere else!
But back to the race. In the first round Stuart made a statement by besting the field. Bob was the only racer close to Stuart, just 3 laps behind. Bart was racing the chassis he built in Stuart's class, and was in the hunt in third with a strong run. Mike showed his newly built chassis was a contender by holding the fourth spot.
First round results:
