Thanks to Bryan and Sherry for hosting the opening race of the season. The food was great and the racing was extremely close! The format for grouping amateurs together for their own race seemed to be popular. We will continue to work to refine the process.
Congrats to Tracy on his second place finish - NICE RUN !!!

Odd Thursday Night Racing at TooBad Motorplex on September 5th.
Wet, windy, and cooler tonight for a change. Eleven racers made it out for some laps. My Granddaughter Cailin was visiting, so I reversed the order of the classes from how we usually race so she could race in the GT Class (Papa Track Owner Executive Privilege Rule - established 9/5/2013). Chris Kouba supplied a field of 1/24 BRM Porsches for an IROC race to close out the evening. However the race was cut short because we brutally abused the cars and broke the guide flags on two of them. We apologize Chris! Thank you for your patience and understanding, not to mention your generosity!
All in all another fun night of racing! Thank you to all that came out!
Here are the results:
GT Class:
1st Bryan Trachsel 55 laps
2nd Chris Kouba 54
3rd Tracy Flood 53
4th Bill Bostic 52
5th Glenn Heath 52
6th Gary "Goose" Gossett 52
7th Cailin Dunbar 51
8th Tyler Petrequin 51
9th Bryan Dickerson 51
10th Greg Petrolati 46
11th Perry Petrequin 40
Classic Sports Car Class:
1st Greg Petrolati 49 laps
2nd Bryan Trachsel 49
3rd Bill Bostic 48
4th Tracy Flood 47
5th Gary "Goose" Gossett 46
6th Bryan Dickerson 46
7th Chris Kouba 45
8th Tyler Petrequin 42

Greg "Greenman" Petrolati made it out from Carlton.
Greg brought some great cars to sell!
I'm a sucker for "Greenman" slot car ART! I lightened my wallet a little.
Greg had something that appealed to everyone!

Odd Thursday on August 29th. 13 racers made it out to Fairview despite the extreme evening humidity. We first raced the Classic Sports Car Class where Greg "Greenman" Petrolati posted the win. In the GT Class Gary "Goose" Gossett killed the field with his Mr. Slotcar Mazda (no more magnet cars for you Goose!). After we had finished abusing the sports cars and GT's, Chris Kouba brought out his 1/24 scale BRM Porsche 962's for a little IROC action. Rico Locati won that race edging out "Goose" by 3/4 of a lap. All in all it was great fun last night! Thank you all for making it out!

1st Greg Petrolati 48 laps
