Thanks Goose for the nice words, and thanks to everyone that came out to race!

Amy volunteered to help me post the race results and keep track of the stats. She is developing a spread sheet we can use, so look for the results to soon be posted along with more stats you can use for tuning your cars. Thanks Amy!

Just got this email message from Beau Frazier:

I'M "ALL IN" on the soap box derby idea! I've always wanted to do this since I saw the event probably 10 yrs. or more ago. Gathering with you guys to build a car would be great fun!! Running it would be totally cool. Another idea along this line , which I ran by the PASER guys years ago, with no results, was to build an electric drag car. This ties in perfectly with slot car racing. No big money cars of course. Just something to get down the 1/8th mile as a bracket racer. Anyway, I love the Derby car thing. Count me in...Beau

This sounds like a LOT of fun to me! I am planning to go check it out with Dennis. I agree that this would be a great project for NASTE!

Here's some resourses I know our club has! We have resident race car experts; Dave Smith, John Morse, Monte Saager, Rico Locati, Greg Petrolati, Chris Kouba, Jeff Fields, and Goose Gossett. Some of these members filled the full role of one man teams as they were drivers, engineers, builders, and owners. Some of these members are still active in those roles!
