Looks like a great one for the F1 Vintage class.  Or is it the Classic Class?  One of 'em.

Looks good Doc.  I've got a chip on the way from Scaley via my favorite pusherman.

Mitch, I think he's planning to open early so it may be possible to avoid the horrors of the drive-time carnage.  Maybe DocDoom will chime in here.

I stopped in to visit the good doctor last night.  Had a great time running cars and chatting.  It's a fun track though it does have a little learning curve - no pun intended.  Think I'll build up a car for racing there.  Slot.It Can Am - gonna use an Alfa.

The plan is for some of the Seattle guys to come down next Monday for a little racing.  Let's see if we can get a few of us over there too.

Tires:

Fly Porsche 906
Fly Ferrari 250LM

It's my only two stock Fly's...

This will all be surmised somewhere?  I need a new car.  May have to contact Tony about his new brand.

I'll be there!  Track looks great!

Are loaners available?  Do you have classes you race?  Tell us more.

I think the Sloters are lighter as well.  Ok, I'll leave them in the box.

If you can find them.  May be a problem with many of the cars beyond recently new.

Probably no choice.  I don't think the Fly wheels will fit a slot.it axle.

As long as we are including both Scaley and Fly can we include the Sloter cars, they fit the era perfectly.

Slot.It makes a kit for just this purpose.  Bushings, wheels, axles, gears.  highly recommended.

And thank you for brightening our day.  We had a great time and I thought Betty and Myrnn fit right in.  A few trips to the local tracks and they'll be running right in the thick of it.

How about some results!

The new Slot.it C Class got off to a rousing start and as suspected there was no car repair afterwards like there is with the Ninco's.  Here's the results:

1.  Goose - 47.9 laps
2.  Tracy - 46.2
3.  Monte - 46.1
4.  Al - 45.7
5.  Bill - 45.2
6.  Mitch - 45.1
7.  Jeff - 44.3
8.  Amy - 44.2
9.  Victoria - 42.6
10.  Myron - 40.3
11. Betty - 39.2


And in the second set, it was IROC Slot.it's featuring two Alfa 33's and a Chaparral 2E (with the wing mostly).

1.  Monte - 47.0
2.  Goose - 46.9
3.  Jeff - 45.2
4.  Mitch - 45.0
5.  Tracy - 44.9
6.  Al - 43.0
7.  Victoria - 42.0
8.  Myron - 41.2
9.  Amy - 39.6
10.  Betty - 36.7

We'll hope to see you all again next month.

I'm betting that was March 3rd...  Those retired guys really do lose track of time.

cool

And congrats to Mitch!  New car?

Congrats to Al on a race well run.  We had a great time racing and Victoria even found space to set up her game board.  I downed not one but two entire slices of pizza and enjoyed every bite.  Quite the day!

Mitch, I'd ask Bill the fixer for help with that.  I ruin a lot less stuff when I do that.

Good job Bill.  About time we hit Facebook!

You've got one, just squeeze it a little harder.  ;-)

A nice option, I think these will prove a real hoot!

Ya know...  it was a little frustrating but I had never given thought to the fact that folks would stand out of order around the track.  Don't really see that often anywhere you race and in this case it became a real problem.

I'm glad ya'll had fun anyway.  Amazingly enough all cars have been repaired to their previous glory.

There are according to a certain racer from Tacoma.  You should give him a call and get the lowdown.

I'm ok with this but I hope we get something OTHER than a Tire Razor.  How about something a little nicer if we're going to pool up for this one.

Those are my only thoughts.
