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"

Thanks Bill for another fun filled Odd Thursday, I had a great time visiting, eating and being Ricochet'd.

I'd guess you're correct in stock form but with the right upgrades may be a decent runner.

LOL, me too.  I'm watching this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Fly-1-32-1965-F … 43d88a3b7c

I'm with Mitch.

What would not be fair is to not count points for those who host races.  Why penalize someone who takes the time and effort to host a race? Some people are generous to host multiple races while others host none, so with this logic it would be better point wise to not host let alone doing it more than once.  The new rules will negate the issue to a certain extent in that the expert class are the only ones racing for points so the intermediate and novice classes are not affected by the host performing well.  If there are fewer points races next year as has been indicated, not receiving points at any race will be an even larger penalty. Besides most of the experts are more than capable of winning on any track on a given night.

Thank you Monte for the fact filled and enlightening post, it is much appreciated.

I'll second that!!!!

What he said times two.  I may even have a new nick name.

WOW, what a great night of racing and we didn't even make it to the BRM class.  Very close racing through out, sometimes a little too close Mr. Fisher! The Beast Vette has it's eyes on you :-).  Thank you Bill and Diane for the hospitality as always.

There is some evidence that the guy in that picture is the legendary Bob Braverman- journalist, motorcycle and drag racer, modeler and slot car  enthusiast.

They are pretty close to the originals to me
