Update from Dennis hart:

1. Application is complete. I will go over it with the team or send a copy to anyone who wants one right away.  I took the liberty of assigning you as second in charge. Only surprise is a $200 fee to be paid by April 30th.  We can sell 20 additional shares or I will personally front the money and figure it all out later.

2. I have purchased 2 SBD axles for $50 including shipping from back east. They are in good condition and useable.

3. I want to purchase a simple back up camera to be mounted on the tail looking backward. (aprox. $50 )

4. It looks like $500 will cover materials,  I have sold 5 shares here to friends at the resort.

5. Attached is a copy of the livery that I recommend.

I consider us on track, time wise, at this point.  Will call a meeting to bring the team up to date and set some work sessions as soon as I come home at the end of March.

Still feel the need for speed.


Attached a drawing I sent to PSBD for you to put on the NASTE website if you wish.

Well it's getting close to the Fray In Ferndale for 2016. Sadly to say I have again this year failed on my attempt to return and compete. With that said I would like to officially start the ground work for a team formation for the 2017 Fray in Ferndale! Please, all you HO racers please start thinking about this and let's organize for a road trip in March of 2017!!!!

We have talked about it for quite some time now, so now we have one. I got it started but to be honest, I don't really know what to do with it now! Check it out on Facebook and put in your two cents worth!

At the next NASTE race on February 21st at Al's, I will have some of these chassis available for sale. These chassis are ready to run as they come in the bag, and they will be $20 to club members.

Just to note; I have been running and racing my car with the original tires after just a light sanding. They work fine on my track and Monte's. My plan is to have races from time to time for anyone interested in racing thses cars.

Thanks Chris! I'll leave a special place on my quarter panel!

Below is an illustration of Goose at the last race:

Lists updated as of Jan. 21, '16 races.

On January 21st Odd Thursday Night Racing returned to TooBad Motorplex. We tried a new race format with the Race Coordinator Program. For the first Vintage F1 Class race the format worked pretty well, with the finish positions aligning with the manual scoring used to check the new format. The same was not true for the second Can Am race. It appears as in the first race where the diversity of cars creates quite a spread in total laps, the format worked well. However in the Can Am Class the racing was much closer and there was little difference in each position's total laps. In the case of the second race the new format's finish positions were way different and off from the manual tally. So much for the new format!

But the racing was exciting and fast as usual! The track's surface temperature was 62.6 degrees at the start of practice, and 68.9 degrees for the start of the third race (BRM Porsches).
