Love to be working on the track. it just to damn hot in there to do much of anything till the weather cools off. I have to deal with a oven all day at work, not much up to do it all over at home...

A Duck Hunter is out hunting. he has been in his blind all day and has not seen or heard any ducks all day. all of a sudden here come a flock of ducks flying over his head. so he takes aim and BANG he shoots one out of the sky. he watches it fall from the sky and hit a farm house roof and land dead in the front yard. so works way out of the blind, heads up to the farm and jumps over the fence to get his duck. just then these rather large and well built farmer steps out of his house and ask the hunter what he thinks he is doing. well Im getting that duck I shot. no the farmer says that my duck it hit my farm house and is in my yard so that makes it my duck... hunters say no I shot that duck it is mine.. farmer ask here is he from?and does he  know any thing about Property rights. well the hunters says the big city and no not really. well the farmer says we can settle these country style. hunter asks what is that. well that's were we take turns kicking each other in the balls and who ever does not give up can keep the duck. hunter goes eeeeeeeeeeeee im not to sure about that, bit I have been out here all day and sure hate to go home empty handed, so sure lets do country style then. farmer say ok but I get to go 1st. all right? so the farmes revs up and kicks the hunter has hard as he can. ooooooooooooooooooooooooooo errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr damnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn the hunter drops to the ground in pain and rolls on the ground for what seamed like 30min. finally he gets up brushes his self off and says man that really did hurt and says ok my turn. farms says back never mind, you can keep the duck!!!!!!

So a guys driving down the road doing 50 mph and a chicken goes flying pass him and shoots down a alley.
so the driver slams on his breaks and jumps out of his car and run down the alley looking for that chicken.  when a farmer steps out of a door way. driver ask if he saw were that chicken had gone. farmer replies back that's my chicken.  driver says he never seen a chicken run so fast before. well the farmer say that because i raise three legged chickens. driver says really why. well the farmer answers lets say you want a chicken dinner and you want a leg, say your wife want one two and then your son or daughter wants a leg. well with a three legged chicken solves that. drivers replies man that great, but  how do they taste? farmer say I have no idea, we have never caught one....

hey I head that Hooters is going to have there own to your door food delivery program.


they are calling it KNOCKERS!!!!!!!

Looks like it when the track owners think it is safe to start racing again it will happen........but it does not hurt to at least talk about it right????
so check it out. I was in Safeway the other day and I'm not really thinking about were I was going. so I head down a aisle not really paying much to the arrows when I older gents speaks up and says young man did not see the arrows on the ground in a rather nasty tone if I do say so, I replied back not only did I not see the arrows I did not see all the Indians either.....

yes yes and yes....

Thanks Zack. I don't think this addition will make it any harder. So I guess that part is good news!

no just longer and more time think about the  last off

Been thinking a lot about the classes we run and all the new cars that have come out and soon to released cars. Looks like there is big push for gt3 cars coming from the manufators. With that said it might be time to re think our current gt3 class.  I know it was either a love or hate reaction to the class. So these is what I was thinking  that we do away with current gt3 rules and open it up to 3d chassis and the new cars from slot it and sideways nsr and others. Make it spec motor rule. Either the baby raptor motor or the 20k nsr motor and open tire choice.  Open gearing and No silicone tires only. Comments???? Na or yea let your voice  be heard....

Looks like that track that Montie has was there 1st track they built..

hope so. I.m not much of a wood worker so it may there might be few o crap moments during the build

well track and table are all taken apart. looks like most of the wood is reusable. need to make a dump run and then figure how Im going build these tiliting table light enough that one guy can fold it up with busting a ball or two... these is what I.m aiming for.

Well nothing like challenge  to make you pull your hair. Just look at me. My whole life been a challenge and you can see how much hair I have. Good luck

Why not just build the whole new section, that way you only need to shim  the one end, and take care of trying to get that angle correct on the corner..

Must be good stress  relief  after the test drives hey  bill

Way to tease everybody Rico. For a min there I thought we might be racing again. I'm in tear down mode on my track have one more table to tear apart and then it back to planning  and building the folding up table.

With the two temporary legs attached the curve is stable standing alone.

The curve is positioned to maintain 18 inches clearance from the other portions of the track to allow for turn marshals. Turn marshals will be able to access all portions of the track without crawling! No more hands and knees stuff for us old guys!

This is where the hairpin will sit in relation to the rest of the track. I will be adding about 12 feet overall to the lap length. The next step is to build the tabletop portion tying in the space between the curve and the rest of the track.
