Thanks Bill for another entertaining evening of racing, it's always a good time at Too Bad Motorplex. I think I may have a junk food hangover or I'm just tired from getting home so late. What I thought was going to be an improvement in the Trans Am  class, clearly wasn't, so I guess it's back to the drawing board.  I still giggle inside at how well that beat up, second hand BRM runs, just amazing. Although the Omron car shows great promise after just a few laps getting into the 8.3's.

Question: Are we going to limit the Vintage F1 to Scalextric only?  This car is just now becoming available and would fit very nicely with the Scalextric Modern class

You can read more about it here: http://www.slotforum.com/forums/index.p … ntry966321

I'm not sure how well the performances will match but the chassis is basically the same as the previous Fly March 761 which were supposed to be quite quick.  In fact the March's would fit the class quite nicely as well.

Thoughts?

After he figured out he shouldn't race with the dried out tires from your track, he's trying to keep his tires fresh.

NO ONE is complaining. I'm just giving him a little good natured ribbing, that's all.  If it didn't sound that way I apologize.

Anti-collision? Where's the fun in that???

Nice photo bomb Goose

Eeewwwww! 

Dom and I had fun yesterday although he was a little disappointed at finishing last but he really liked the track.  I will relish my third place in what was an extremely close race.

I'm watching this:

I unburied the track today, cleaned and dusted the surface and did some paint touch up. Next I made some better spacers for under  the corner leading up to the first bridge.  The new spacers had to be tested so AJ, Dominic and I ran 300 laps or so.  AJ and I had a Reprotec Fiat duel for the ages. I may still do a little more tweaking but I'm happy with results for the most part.

That's too bad Chris, what a bummer. Can you turn it into the roadster version? 

You haven't built any unauthorized sheds have you?

If you're like me you have lots of spare slot car tires laying around whether they be new, used or waiting for Bill to try.  They seem to clutter up my work bench and it's tough to keep track of what exactly they are and what car they are for.  I ran across these this morning at Dollar Tree and thought they may help keep things more organized.

So far, so good and as Bob Barker would say "The price is right"
