Thanks for the New Years Eve race Bill, Dominic and I had fun and his siblings can't believe he won.

More on the mystery, I posted the car on HRW and got this from Chris Walker:

Hi Reek, nice find, and a great looking car!!

I don't want to burst your bubble. but, Cox did not produce a 2E in 1/32 scale.........The body is a SCX 2E with what appears to be an early Riko chassis, with a wing and actuator either fabricated or pirated from a Cox 1/24 2E

Attached is a pic. (small, I apologize) of an SCX 2E.

Great car regardless!!

Cheers
Chris Walker

PS I just dug up a pic. of a Riko chassis that is very likely the chassis under your car..........on your car the side pans on the Riko have been removed for clearance. In their day the Riko chassis' were quite potent, and with a bit of tuning they did very well, particularly in club racing..........well sorted, they can still easily hold their own today.

I actually haven't ran a lap with it yet, most of the track is covered with boxes and stuff from Christmas.

A very Merry Christmas to all.

Dominic and I had a great time Saturday, thanks to Bill and Diane for being such gracious hosts once again.  Too bad we didn't race the Womps both rounds but the Slot.its were very nice too until that one decided to slow down and probably cost me a lap or two. Oh well, next time.  Have a Merry Christmas y'all.

Congratulations to the Christiansen's for a successful opening of their new track.  The races went off with only a few minor glitches that we corrected as we went along. We forgot to save the results for the first two classes but did save them for the BRM and Over 50 class but only in some weird file type that only Race Coordinator can open. We need to help Al get some form of Excel so we can save the results in a format we can read.  I believe I was able to get the printer software loaded but it was late and I did not try to print anything. 
There were some really good close battles through out the evening but none closer than the BRM class. I won the race by quite a few laps due to some mishaps by others but Goose set the fast lap 7.069 to my 7.08x.  If memory serves Big Smooth won the F1 class. I don't remember who won in CanAm and Al set the pace for the Over 50 cars.  I'm pretty sure Goose was second and Brutus came in third.

I was referring more about the chassis than the 36D motors.

I don't believe they did.

I'm pretty sure that Diane is the only one who wants to see Bill's junk.  Now, if we are talking slot cars- bring it on.

Man alive, that is NICE!  Nice work Al and Mitch too.

Have a Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving everyone.
