I recently acquired 2 large plastic tubs full of Scalextric Sport track!
There are also boarders and guard railings.
Come and get it!

I sometimes refer to the Annual NASTE Halloween Race as part parade and part race. The race is as much about the entries and their construction, as it is about the race results! Sometimes just being able to finish the race is the real goal, and a major accomplishment!
My clown farmer made a return appearance in his pickup again this year. A veteran of many Halloween races it makes me think of NASCAR star and watermellon farmer Ross Chastain.....sort of..........

Flyin' Bryan Trachsel made his come back to slot racing at this Annual NASTE Halloween Race! Bryan has been absent from the local slot car racing scene for a few years. It is great to see him back!
Track owner and host for this race Gary Howard raced an entry originally built by Beau Frazier. Nobody has ever been able to quite figure out what this is!

Another build from Terry was the Turbo Jet Turtle raced by Dorothy Abbott.
Dorothy's back up entry was this '57 Chevy also built by Terry.
A very familiar and always popular grid entry for the Halloween race is Terry's Mr. Potatoe Head in his Radio Flyer!

Last night the NASTE Halloween Race was held at Howie's Rapid Raceway. This was the 30th year for the annual race. Although there were only seven racers in attendance, spirits were high and the fun meter was pegged! The field was filled with some entries making return appearances, as well as some fresh new equipment. The first half of the race was run under full lighting. The second half was run in the dark.....and I mean total darkness! We even shut down the computer monitor used for scoring!
The field was impressive thanks to the racer's work in preparing their entries, but a special note has to go out to Terry Abbott for his dedication to the Annual Halloween Race and bringing multiple entries! Terry has provided other racers with entries in many of the past year's Halloween Races!
One of Terry's creations this year was this really cool version of the Batmobile!

Since I was given the Checkered Flag Raceway track by Bob McFarland in 2018, my focus has been on maintaining that track and hosting races for car classes that Bob and the PASER members established. I have moved away from racing 1/32 model cars almost completely. My participation in the NASTE group since 2020 has been in the background, mostly posting info, photos, and results on this NASTE website. After conferring with Al Christensen, I have decided to retire from NASTE. Al will now be the point person for the group and lead it into the future from here!

The last race of the night was the feature race for the Flexi Class. The latest model JK chassis have become the dominant car in this class. Not much diversity here. No even in color choice!
This time a broken lead wire kept Rob off of the podium! Bob Nak. spanked us all!
The fastest lap times were split between Bob and Rob.
Even though attendance was low it was a fun evening! We had plenty of practice and tuning time, and plenty of snacks! Rob had the hot dog cooker up and running strong. The hot dogs were AWESOME! Thanks Rob for a fun night of racing!

With no additional racers showing up during the Old Man race, it was decided we would go ahead and run the Iron Man race scheduled for the Womp Class. 
Rob ran another great race, again finishing ahead of the field!

Topic: Odd Monday October 27 2025 (3 replies, posted in Rob's Redline Raceway)
Racer turnout was low for this Monday Night's racing. It was decided to race without turn marshalls. Each racer would marshall their own car. It wasn't as crazy as one might think. The majority of us with controllers in hand are old, we don't run, or for that matter even hurry! Crashing was fast as usual, marshalling was slow. But the competition was high as usual on Rob's Redline Raceway!
Car classes raced at Rob's Redline on Odd Monday Nights fall under the Columbia River Slot Car Racers rules. The first race of the evening was the Old Man race for the Modified Production Class. The field was dominated by NSR brand cars. 
Here are the Modified Production race results:
Rob posted the fastest lap times in each lane!

Topic: OSCAR Late Model NASCAR Tips (0 replies, posted in OSCAR)
Everybody knows the 1/24 Chevrolet Slab Side bodies are the best for the OSCAR Late Model NASCAR Class. But the question that always comes up is; which ones are the Slab Sides? The Slab Sides are the 1995-1999 Revell Monogram Chevrolet Monte Carlo 1/24 kits. But they were not all slab-sides. You have to check picture on the model box to verify. Some of those years, including the Luminas had curled sides too.

Nick Johnson won the Concours judging. His Petty Plymouth was just awesome, well deserving of the win. 
With so many great looking cars entered it was difficult to pick a winner for Concours!
My off track time gave me the chance to focus on an activity I am a little better at, turn marshalling! I took home the gold.....er, pink.......flesh........dead looking flesh...........hey, I won something!

Steven Ennis was nice enough to ride over to Bend with me. It was his first time on the track and he put in an impressive perfomance! Much better than most do on their first visit to this humbling track!
Jimmy Folkens had improved a lot since the last time I raced with him. He was FAST!
Tom Street, host and track owner read off the results;
John Gill and Shaun Mayea had tired for third:
Tom Street finished second, and the winner was........JP!
