Ok, I did it. A shiny, new Ford GT sits in the kitchen. I'm now on the verge of readiness for the Ford GT class. In fact, I don't know why we don't declare it a class by itself. That would allow the other class (Spos Car D2) to return to a wider variety of entrants. Not that I am complaining - now - but a class that has over 90% of the competition using a variant of the same car might need some re-thinking.

Will BRM Trans Am Cars be competitive? If not, what will be required?

6. Racers may race multiple entries in any race however, to be eligible for an official win, racers must complete the entire race with the original entry they start the race with. If a racer switches cars due to mechanical failure, or to improve performance anytime during the race, they are not eligible for an official win.
So can you change cars and improve your performance and get credit for the result if you finish second or lower?
Asking for a friend.

It was a beautiful day weather-wise as the sun shined bright and we opened the garage door to enjoy the outdoors. A big thanks to all the racers that came to play. It was nice to see a number of younger racers. We'll probably have to move Todd up now that he's actually taller than I am.
Some results...
Can-Am Class:
1. Tracy Flood - 46.4 laps
2. Rico Locati - 46.3
3. Mitch Brooks - 45.8
4. Dan Fritz - 45.5

Some close racin' and congratulations to Tracy on the win just squeezing past Rico.
For the second round we threw down IROC-style the Slot.It Lancia's. And for a set of IROC cars they proved to be quite evenly matched.

Re: Rule Changes for 2019 Racing Season (36 replies, posted in NASTE)
I agree with Mitch. If I have a least favorite class it's probably Trans Am.
I'd be happy with:
1. Can Am
2. GT or Classic Spo's Ca's
3. LeMans
But with only three classes I'd be happy with most anything.

Thanks to Al for hosting the race this past Saturday night. We had a good time. Food was great and the company was friendly as always.
