Topic: Odd Thursday Racing at TooBad Motorplex (3 replies, posted in Too Bad Motorplex)
After a little discussion at Penguin Point yesterday, the consensus was there may be room for some week night racing. Determining a suitable weeknight is tough because everyone has other things going on. With that said, Thursday nights seemed to be a good compromise for most. So, starting THURSDAY of THIS WEEK I will be opening the doors to TooBad Motorplex at 4:00pm for racing, every ODD THURSDAY (which is every other Thursday) of each month (i.e. Thurs. 2/7, Thurs. 2/21, Thurs. 3/7, etc.). Racing will start at 6:30pm. Car classes and rules will be carried over from the NASTE Tuesday racing. The rules are listed here: http://www.naste.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=477

Sorry I missed the race yesterday, but Diane and I were preparing for the arrival of our new grandson. He eventually arrived at 4:49 Sunday morning. From the look of concentration on his face, by 9:00am he appeared to be wanting to do some slot racing..............................well, it looked that way to me anyway..................................

Looks like we're on for January!!!
I studied that Mayan calendar closely. I think they should have used a bigger stone, or started chiseling further from the edge!!!!
I heard the Mayans don't race slot cars anyway!!!!

Re: The altimate slot car track (5 replies, posted in Slot Talk)
I've seen pictures of that one before. They also made one out of a real Camaro, done up like the Sunoco Trans Am Camaro.
I agree Howie, $125,00.00 is chicken feed for a slot racer to feed his addiction, but their shipping costs are outrageous!!!!!

Re: NASTE 2012 Halloween Race (27 replies, posted in NASTE)
I am definitely in favor of having the NASTE 2013 Halloween Race at Rapid Raceway!
What about a new scoring system for the 2013 Halloween race? Say some points awarded for best car theme, execution or construction, in addition to one point for each lap completed? And maybe bonus points for showing up in costume????

Thanks Howie for hosting our annual NASTE Halloween Race for 2012!
Cailin & I had a great time! Great food & great company! NASTE people are the BEST people!
Sponge Bob had a great time too (although he complained a lot about the handling of his car........er, boat!)......

Re: NASTE 2012 Halloween Race (27 replies, posted in NASTE)
OK sounds like we'll be pretty well covered. I'll bring plastic forks, spoons, and knives. Plus some finger food, probably chicken strips or what ever Cailin wants to bring. Howie's is pretty close to a Safeway in case we forgot something.
I have two Halloween vehicles up and running, Cailin's and one more. Both just barely make the 3 1/2" limit. Got my fingers crossed I measured correctly!!!!

Re: NASTE 2012 Halloween Race (27 replies, posted in NASTE)
Hi Hammer,
I'm up with doing a pot-luck type food thing for those interested in bringing something. I will bring some kind of finger type food.
As far as the address I don't like posting track owner's addresses here unless they ask me to or say it's ok. I'll send the address to Terry's email for you.
