I think Classic 2 might as well die haha.

I think it just needs an adjustment.  In my opinion classic cars shouldn't have pods.  I feel like both Div 1 and Div 2 should run podless.  And not with cars that have had their pods tightened.  This is a chance to step back to the older type of slot cars.  Closer in concept to the 50 and older class.

If the Ford GT is your choice there are still ones to choose from, most notably Fly and Scalextric.

I would add the following to both classes:

Classic 1:  No pods, no scratch-builds.

Classic 2: No pods.

Allowing brass/scratch chassis in Classics 2 would be about the same as allowing the Slot.It cars without having to fight the pod battle. And yes I know a Policar Ferrari is coming.  I'm not that thrilled with a two-car class either.  Perhaps we need to consider adding a podded classics class.

I gave this some thought myself.  It might be easier if we replaced two of our current classes and kept two.

What do others think?

It can be troublesome when you write a long, detailed post.

Always best to copy all the text prior to submitting so if you get timed out, you can log in again and quickly post it.

You can also try the back button to see if it will retrieve it for you.

And Bill...  not the tuner or builder.  HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.  Bill...  builder of tracks, builder of wonderful Halloween cars, builder of the Bostic Bullet (AKA the O-Ring Ford that drove a certain track owner wild).  Not the tuner or builder.  HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Go work on your track Bill.  HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.  You kill me.

There was a detailed post on one of the forums with all that and more.  It was quite a detailed list.  Chris Guy maybe?

Do I spy tungsten weights in that pod?  Been thinking about those lately.

And speaking of Slot.It, what is our position on the new 21.5 motor that is more like 23k?

That's a lot of awesome work you've put in.  I'm getting tired just reading the posts.

Pack up all my cares and woes, down the road, there they go, bye-bye NASCAR.

The SCX NASAR's that have been digitized to Carrera and gave us so much pleasure at the last race here have found a new home.

Sometimes enough is enough.

May the sun shine on your day.

Yee-haa!

More devastating news.  I had emailed with Goose a few times recently and he had not been feeling well.

Victoria and I are both sorry to hear this.

I found him a pleasant, well-humored fellow.  I truly enjoyed our every meeting.

Seems so.  Maybe you need to update your software.

I hate to be the desparager but we've seen the Q-routine up there.  It never works out.  Buncha sandbaggers.

Be better for Alan to Q the unknowns and assign the knowns by result of previous reputation.

When I can outrun Vic and Bruce on a Q-run you know the fix is in...

Let's discuss Thursday night.

Yes, it will do that.  It allows for a relay on each lane of the three I have set up here.  I'm sure it was designed for fuel so "out of fuel" would require a relay to turn off the power for that lane.
