You're right Doc, thanks! I forgot the point adjustment each driver received in race number one. I made the corrections.
Sorry about that!

Re: I was at a garage sale.I picked up (5 replies, posted in Cars)
The wing car would work fine at Rapid Raceway, but they don't race them in any of their classes. The Parma International 32 will run fine on Monte's track, Al's Rippin' Ridin' Raceway, and at my TooBad Motorplex. However the motor is way more powerful than what you need for those tracks. As it is set up it would be better suited to tracks like Rapid Raceway, but again they have no classes for that particular car. Of the two cars the International 32 could be set up to run in the GT Class we race on Odd Thursday Nights as a scratchbuilt. You would have to replace the motor with something like an H&R 26k, install urethane tires, and a suitable coupe type body. As far as the wing car, if it were me I'd sell it on Ebay. It would probably bring somewhere around $20 to $25.

Looks like you have a 1/24 wing car chassis and a 1/32 Parma Euro chassis. The Parma Euro chassis is a good one!

Re: NASTE 2017 Point Series Championship Standings & Race Results (68 replies, posted in NASTE)
The December first race at Rippin' Ridin' Raceway concludes the first round of racing with the Trans Am Class cars in the NASTE 2017 Point Series Championship. In this first round Rico Locati has established himself in the lead with an inpressive four wins out of the first six races! Rico is followed closely by Jeff Fields who also scored a win, and trails Rico by just four points. Currently in third is Chris Kouba just another three points down. Al Christensen scored the other win in the Trans Am Round.
For the next round of six races we will be racing the Le Mans Class cars. Will anyone be able to dominate this class? Can anyone beat Chet?

I'll take a look and see what I have Mike. What ohm resistor do you need in the controller? Would any other color than green work OK for you?

Re: Here's a little warning about eBay this happen to me Sunday (8 replies, posted in Cars)
There are bidding programs you can download and use that will submit bids quicker than you can manually, within the last 5 seconds of the auction. I have sold popular items and watched this happen. I have had items sell with the winning bid increasing by hundreds of dollars in the last 2 or 3 seconds!
I have also won items in the last few seconds. I once saw an item I was interested in at a very low price with less than a minute to go. I put in a bid and won the item by less than a dollar over the previous bidder. I received an email from that bidder stating he was "pissed off and going to turn me in to Ebay". Evidently he didn't realize I didn't do anything wrong. Bottom line, I was willing to pay more for the item than he was. My advice is to always bid the maximum you are willing to pay for an item. If it sells for more than that have no fear, there will ALWAYS be another one listed and another opportunity! If you are just looking to get something as cheap as possible, you can sometimes get it by sniping.
By the way, what kind of controller are you looking for Mike?
