I hope he hasn't got you DQ'd before you even get there.

I bet he would submit an Orange car and call it Yellowish.

Just leave a spot for my Soccer Mom car, I've finally got it turning some very good laps. If it was up to just Monte there would be NO yellow cars.

Yes the Scalextric GT3 cars do qualify for the GT class, but they will probably get spanked pretty hard by the Slot Its and the lone Fly car that runs in that class. They are fun looking cars and could probably benefit from their own class, but we might want to think about something similar speed/handling wise that could run with them. Not everybody might want to buy another car for another class. Just a thought. I already picked up a Scaley GT3 just because, well, I guess because I have no will power to resist.

Over 50 might be fun on that track, after all that's what they were built for.

Doc, I think Howie's neighborhood association is watching you as a potential prowler because you keep cruising the neighborhood and never stopping.

Re: Anyone interested in an EVEN Thurs? (26 replies, posted in NASTE)
I believe the restrooms were also closed because they emptied straight into the river. When I was a teenager there were still old concrete restrooms in Waterfront park in Portland they didn't flush, there was just a pipe leading out of the bottom, like a fancy outhouse. One morning a couple of friends and I were wandering around the park when one of them picked up an empty bottle and dropped it into the toilet tube a couple of seconds later we heard a splash, when we looked over the rail there was the bottle floating in the river. They were all removed soon after as part of the Willamette clean up program.

I'll probably be there. Our sixth grandchild is in the process of being born at the moment, so if I mention it to Chris it will fall on deaf ears. I don't really believe we have anything else scheduled that night.

Maybe we could cut a slot in the floor and build a chute. We could turn your garage into a giant vending machine. I'm just sure that Diane would love that.

Re: Mounting Hard Plastic Bodies on Pin Tube Chassis (14 replies, posted in Modifications)
MR Saager has one of those chassis. It will be interesting to see how they perform. BTW, that is how we mounted the bodies to our Drag Cars. The first cars I built for your track were mounted this way. It took me a while to figure out how to make body post.

One nice thing about working in the garage this time of year, if I get so involved that I forget about my beer on the bench, it's still cold when I remember.

What was ever decided on motor limits for this class? I was looking at the new Police F1 cars. They look great but have 24.5K motors in them. Would we have to change to a legal/different motor to race them?

It is supposed to be dry and cold tomorrow with partly clear skies. The roads should melt some but mostly be wore down to nothing by tomorrow afternoon. They will probably start freezing over by the time we head home, but there shouldn't be much moisture. It took me two hours and forty five minutes to get from downtown Portland to Tigard this evening. That seems like a regular odd Thursday commute for Monte.

I had considered running up to Tacoma on Saturday to check out the Enduro and Al talked about going with me. This will no doubt change that, so I'll probably be there too.
