Odd Thursday - October 9th, 2014
Attendance topped out at 11 for the night's racing. The Goose scored a decissive win in the Classic Sports Car Class. John Morse scored his first win and earned his spot on the Odd Thursday Winner's List by winning the Trans Am race, and set a track record for that class while he was at it! In their third bout with their Trans Am cars, Greenman and the Goose broke the two race first place ties, with the tie breaking run resulting in only a 2/10 of a lap margine! The Trans Am Class is turning out to be one of the most closely contended classes. Rico survived the crashing and bashing in the BRM Class to take that win by 1/2 a lap over the Goose. All in all it was another Odd Thursday thrash!

Classic Sports Car:
1st Goose Gossett 52.2 laps

Topic: PASER Update (0 replies, posted in PASER)
Checkered Flag Raceway will have it’s first race of this season this Saturday, October 11. For further dates check:
This season we will have several changes from the past format. The first change will be a new starting time. We will open the track about 3:00 and start the first race about 4:00.
The next big change will be that we will only run two classes of cars each race night so that it will be easier to compete and you won’t have to have cars for lots of classes like we have had in the past. The classes will be hard body 1/24th or 1/25th scale NASCARs with either small wheels or big wheels. (check N.W.T.S.R. for big wheel rules) All NASCARs will run together but will be scored separate.
New this season will be Beau Frazier’s CanAm class of cars. (once again check N.W.T.S.R. for the rules) Coupes like the Lola or Porsche up to 1972 will be allowed. Both kit cars and scratch built cars will run together but will be scored separate. All bodies in this class should be painted and detailed to resemble the full sized race car.
The race this Saturday won’t have a tech inspection since lots of these cars are new but next month we will have an inspection.
Hope to see ya’ll Saturday.

Action during one of the Classic Sports Car rounds of racing.
Sherry Trachsel, Mitch Brooks, and Todd Flood get ready for the start of the race. Tood Flood won the second round of the NASTE Challenge race. Mitch Brooks was the overall winner of the first NASTE Challenge Race of the 2015 season!
The Monogram Grand Sport starting grid for the first round of racing. These cars were prepped in a totally stock configuration, and raced at 9 volts. The cars held up very well throughout the race.

I love this photo! This power nap may have been John's secrete weapon! John Fisher won the first round of the NASTE Challenge race!
One of many discussion, this one being lead by Dave Smith.
Greg Greenman Petrolati, Smooth Monte Kidvolt Saager (could you possibly have more nicknames?), Mitch Brooks, and Glenn Heath were all actively taking part in the discussion with Dave.

Even with all my runnin' around and chasin' rabbits, I managed to snap a few photos......
Early in the day, Greg Greenman Petrolati brought out his new Carrera DTM sporting one of the new 3D printed chassis.
By early afternoon the sun was out. Victoria and Dennis spent some time at the Upwards Game board.

September 25th Odd Thursday Night Race.
Racer turn out may have been low, but we definitely weren't lacking in racing action or enthusiasm! Mitch Brooks and John Fisher scored their first wins, making the Odd Thursday Winners List. Bryan Dickerson placed as high as second in the Vintage F1 Class. And Gary Goose Gossett set a new race record in the BRM Porsche Class. It was an action packed evening! With only six racers we ended up racing four different classes, all with three minute heats. I don't know about everyone else, but I had a great time (even with the DQ in the GT Class race!).

Re: NASTE Logo Contest (11 replies, posted in NASTE)
I have had a request to extend the deadline for the NASTE logo contest. The new deadline is October 25th, 2014, which is the date for the NASTE Halloween Race at Rapid Raceway. The judging for the contest will take place at Rapid Raceway. The judges will consist of three senior NASTE members in attendance, and the race winner of the expert and NASTE Challenge races.
Due to the extension of the contest deadline and any anxiety that may create, the Fantasy World gift certificate prize has been increased to $35 !!!!
We currently have 4 entries in the contest, so get your entries in now!!!

Re: NASTEburgring (25 replies, posted in Events)
My understanding of the points system for the NASTEburgring is you received a single point for competing , and you received one point for each entry you beat in your class. It looks like there were only two cars entered in the Scalextric Historic class at both races in the Tacoma area. Likewise in the Cartrix class there were only two entries in each of the four races. The maximum points the winner of each of those races could receive was also two. In the two Oregon races there were four entries in the Scalextric Historic class races. The winners of each of those races were awarded a total of four points. Most racers entered the Scalextric Vintage class, with seven entries in the Oregon races and sixteen in the Washington races. That's where the big points were, but there were also more racers competing for a win.
