Odd Thursday Night Racing on December 29th at TooBad Motorplex. We had a great turnout with 16 racers for the point race. Gone is the snow and ice, and temperature-wise the garage was comfortable with all the bodies providing some additional heat. Of course the racing was hot and close! The widest margine of victory in any class was 1.1 laps! Highlights included Dan Fritz scoring yet another second place finish! I believe he holds the record for the most runner up finishes in NASTE racing history! Maybe we should start calling him Doc 2?

It was cool yesterday. The locals were wearing coats!.....about 70 degrees.......

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.
