Hey Mel,

You can see in the photo how my wife appreciates her car being left outside for track work! And the fact she felt there was too much saw dust in the driveway..........she blasted the driveway!!!

The red car is a 2002 Ford Thunderbird. They brought them back for a 4 year production run.

I got some work done on the track last Saturday with help from my friends Dave Smith And Len Gillean. Not enough to warrant updated photos. I have a couple extra days off from work this week, so hopefully I can get some more work in soon. The track is almost ready for paint. As soon as I get some work done that shows some improvement I'll get some new photos posted.

It's good to have work to pay the bills, but it sure gets in the way of what I want to get done!!!   -----------------------------------------Bill

WHAT????!!!!!!!!!!!!!........................................I thought you were banned this year??????? 

P.S. I'll have the trophy plate with me. Can you bring the trophy so everyone can get a look at it? It's been awhile since anyone has seen it because it's always at your house!!!! LOL   ----------------------Bill

YES, come on out Mike. Jeff's place is on 68th & NE Alberta. Shoot me an email at wb0s@hotmail.com (wb zero s@hotmail.com) and I'll reply with his address and phone number for you.

Jeff said we will be racing the NASTE Vintage Modifieds. If you have n't raced these before you are in for a treat!  Think NASTE 55 Chev's only faster (Ok, not much faster) with open wheels..............1930's to 40's bodies, no fenders, RadioShack motors, and hard rubber airplane tires!!!!! They are a HOOT!!!

Monte is an out-of-the-closet SCX Digi-Racer!!!!

Mike, we're all wishing you the best of luck!!!!

The racers are out there, you just need to find them!!!!    -----------------------Bill

They look great Mike!!! Details like that really make a track more enjoyable!!!   --------------Bill

Thanks Rico!!!!

Cool Mike. Thanks for dropping in and sharing with us!

The 1/43 scale cars and equipment seem to be getting better and better. I have a few of the SCX cars and they work well on 1/32 tracks too.

Did you make the signs pictured in your photo gallery?

I actually washed the Vette a couple weeks ago! We've had it out to dinner a couple times since then.

So, only two joints left to Bondo and sand.....

I also got the glazing putty down today on all the smaller imperfections in the joints I already had Bondo'd & sanded...

Almost ready for the first coat of primer!!!!    ----------------------------Bill

Saturday, nice warm sunny day!!!  Bondo, sand, Bondo, sand, Bondo, sand, Bondo, sand, Bondo, sand.................................

This week, probably by Friday the 24th.

Got some Bondo laid down and sanded today...........

Measured the lap length; left lane = 84 feet 7 1/4 inches
                               
                                    center lane = 84 feet 7 7/8 inches

                                    right lane = 84 feet 8 1/4 inches

Wish I could take credit for great engineering design, but it was just dumb luck!!!!!    -------------------------------------Bill
