Hello is these thing on??????

Do not see anything on the race calendrer for the next odd Thursday race. what are we racing ?

With all these canceled  races hope you all are doing good health wise..

Well racing didn't happen just me and Al at the track so test and tune was in order. With crackers and smoke salmon  to nibble on as we tuned our cars to the razor edges..Let's all try again in two weeks. Hope to see some old faces  that haven't  been out in some times. Don't make me drive out and put hate signs in all of your yards. You all know who you are...

To be or not to Be? Will we race or will we not that's the question. If you don't have anything  going these  Thursday  come on out and get some slot car racing 1/32 style in..

Work all ways gets in my way.you all play nice.

Doc, there are issues afoot. Several in our local slot community have come down with Covid. Chris and I seem to be over the worst of it, but others are still very sick. Those who were exposed but aren't sick may still become sick for up to 10 days after exposure.

                                                                      you all get the crap at  at Daves race Last Saturday. If so I'm glad my work got in the way..

The rules state inline. That can be adjusted if we want to go that way.inline you can get the 1mm ride height rather easy with sidewinder  gear going have to go taller tire to make the gear clear the 1mm rule.

well after last Thursday night racing there was some concern that the brass am class would be to open of a class with the builds so it was decided to just go with the 3d chassis class instead. with that being said the rules need up dating.
 
Body:

Bodies must be injection molded or resin cast in 1/32 scale.
Lightweight interiors allowed, but must be 3 dimensional and painted to show drivers head, shoulders, arms, steering wheel and dash.
Tires must be fully under the fenders. Tires may NOT project beyond body work when viewed from above. Bodies may be realistically flared if proven the car ran that way in T/A from 1966-1976. Group 5-type flaring is NOT permitted
Chassis:

Chassis 3D printed.
Podded chassis are allowed.
motor configuration: IL,
Underside of car chassis and body must clear track road surface (not rails), on level track, by 1.0mm minimum.
Guide must be entirely under body, and NOT visible when viewed from above.
Traction magnets are NOT permitted.
Bearing-type of axle bushings are NOT permitted.
Body Mounting: All chassis MUST be mounted like an RTR car - meaning screws through the chassis to body mounting points and no pins THROUGH the body, Velcro, etc. However, a chassis with side mounts such as the HRS can be used - as long as the pins do NOT go through the body

Gears:

ANY aftermarket gears and ratios of your choice may be used.

Motor:

Any FC-130/S-can or FK-180 long can motor up to 21.5k in RPM is permitted / there is no torque spec.. This will allow for the new Scalextric motors as well as the Piranha, Slot.it and NSR. NOTE: We are aware that motors that may list at a particular RPM can come in higher or lower. Therefore, if the motor is MANUFACTURER RATED at or below 21.5k RPM - it qualifies
Motors may not be opened; only stock motors as the come from the manufacturer are allowed.

Tires:

ONLY Rubber or Urethane Tires permitted
Nail polish or clear coating of front tires is permitted.
Tires are NOT permitted to be wider than 11.0 mm as measured inner-to-outer sidewall

Wheels:

ANY Plastic or aluminum wheels NOT larger than 15mm x 10 mm may be used.
Wheels must have period inserts or look reasonably period for the car - no blank aluminum wheels please.

Bah,  humbug.

                    I think Mitch wants  to be the one pulling the classes out of the hat...

Well we had a light turn out with only 4 die hands making  it out to race so Mitch wife was drafted  into corner Marshall  duty. Up 1st was the over 50 cars and Al took the win  with doc 2nd and then rico and Mitch. The 2nd class was lmp and Doc took the win followed  by Rico Al and Mitch. Last race of the night was open and  Al took the win with Ricco 2nd then doc and mitch..that was it for the. Night.  We discussed  what classes to run and it was decided with lack of input that all classes would be thrown in a hat and be drawn my Al granddaughter.
