We have one more race with the Trans Am cars in the 2017 NASTE Point Series Championship, then we move to the Le Mans Class. The cars will be raced according to the rules listed for the Odd Thursday Night races with the exception that front motored cars will NOT be raced in a separate division from the rear motored cars. For the Point Series Championship the Le Mans Class will NOT be separated into two divisions.

The Oregon Donors Team finished 10th. Monte's Oregon Donors II finished MUCH better, although I'm not sure of their exact finish position. After 24 + hours I was not paying much attention to verbal communications!

WE WEREN'T LAST!

Yes indeed! Thank you Monte & Victoria! The only thing that was better than the super fun racing was the awesome soup!!!!

This is looking to be the closest NASTE Point Series Championship ever! We're four races in with less than 10 points separating first through seventh positions. With 14 races to go a lot could change!

Thank you Al for another awesome night of racing at Rippin' Ridin' Raceway! As usual the racing was close and hard fought. Highlights include wins for Chris, Rico, Dan, and Mitch. Current trends: Mitch is killing everybody in the Over 50 Class, Chris and Rico win when they can make the races, Jeff and Dan are no longer mid pack rookies, and what the hell is up with the Goose not being on the podium???

In addition to Sherry OBVIOUSLY kicking Bryans butt, had Beau ran all 12 heat races he would have been right on Bryan's heels as well! We should have probably screwed Bryan out of one heat instead of Beau!

Monte, that Bat-Asp was definitely Bad-Ass!!!

Bea Frazier's entry had everyone asking what is in the coffin?

We know it was green. Whatever it was it felt its way around the track quite well!

Here's some photos I took of some of the Halloween cars. Unfortunately I didn't get them all either.

This was Bryan Trachsel's entry. VERY tricky to turn marshal!!! For that matter, tricky to turn marshal ANY car when he was on the track........especially in the dark! Fortunately no injurries were reported!

http://www.naste.org/members/bill/IMG_3353.jpg

Sherry Trachsel's car was one of a very few that could keep pace with Bryan!

Dorothy Abbott's duck boat featured lights that lit up the whole front of the boat. AWESOME entry!

http://www.naste.org/members/bill/IMG_3355.jpg

Monte Saager's Bat Asp was a classic (no pun intended) favorite!
