Looks good to me!  I'll be checking with my local pusherman.

There goes the rest of my free time.  Nice post!

How about a class of Ford GT's and similar models?  At LeMans a Ford GT and a 356 Porsche were not expected to race in the same class.  With the new Ferrari coming from Policar maybe there will be a suitable challenger.

I have nothing against the Ford GT.  I have at least 4 of them, 2 Scaley, a Slot.it and an NSR.  I just think that when you have a car that so dominates that it's about the only car then maybe some class adjustment/creation is needed.

No problem, Doc. Time well spent is time well spent.

Thank you, it was our pleasure!

Jeff appears to have too much fun with this.  Well done guys!

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.
