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

We held a test and tune day yesterday.  The tire choice worked great so grab some N22's from one of the online sources or pick up a pair next time you're here.  I plan to have extra's on hand.

Where did Chris find all that paint?  I'm stunned.  They look great.

Agreed, still cool regardless. 

But...  that probably makes it one of the SCX bodies.  I have one we can use and compare.  I'll take pics when I get home from the beach later this week.

It was a good time.  I enjoyed all the cars.  Food was plentiful.  Some of ya'll need to slow down and you know who you are.

Look who's talking.  LOLOLOL

You are da man!

I think partial cars count as complete cars if the partial and the parts are set aside together so that they don't become separated/misappropriated.

Your bench looks well organized to me.  I should show you a picture of Victoria's desk some time.

So where is the current count?

I've thought about it a bit, and addressed all my concerns by talking with the Tacoma Wizard of all things slot, Tony.  So it shall be Group C as follows:

Motor: Orange End Bell
Pod: Inline - any version allowed
Gears: Stock will do OR you can adjust if you prefer - my feeling is that stock is perfectly adequate for the Penguin Point track
Tires: N22 - Monte will try to have extras on hand
Wheels: Stock
Magnet: Removed - non-mag

Added ballast must be inside the car.

Suspension systems (magnetic or spring) and independent front wheels are not allowed at this time.

I plan to have loaners available for anyone that doesn't have a car.

Group C is:

Porsche 956 (any version)
Porsche 962 (any version)
Jaguar XJR (any version)
Sauber C9
Toyota 88c
Mazda 787b
Lancia LC2 (any version)
Nissan R89C

Any of these cars should be competitive and this should give everyone the same level playing field.  And on the plus side, many of us probably already have some of the cars on this list.

Thanks gents, the pleasure is ours.  And a pleasant day it was as thirteen racers came to play on a day that would see the Portland Timbers win the MLS Championship.

As it was, we had the Pony Car proxy cars here so we ran our typical Ninco round but after that it was out with the proxy cars and we consumed the remainder of the day piloting pony cars around the track.

This will be the final race of the Ninco Any Car series for the time being.  Starting the first of the year we'll replace the Ninco class with a new Slot.It class.  Details to be announced soon.

And now, yesterday's results:

Ninco Class - Any Car

1.  Jeff Fields - 46.1 laps
2.  Monte Saager - 44.9
3.  Goose Gossett - 44.2
4.  Thomas Flood - 43.2
5.  Bill Bostic - 42.8
6.  Mitch Brooks - 42.6
7.  Tracy Flood - 42.4
8.  Al Christensen - 40.5
9.  Amy Fields - 40.1
10. Victoria Saager - 37.7
11. Todd Flood - 36.5

You must achieve a Zen state.  Find your inner rhythm.  Then speed it up!
