And thank you for hosting, we had a great time too.

Big thanks to all those that came to play yesterday.  The sun came out and for a bit it still seemed like summer was close at hand.  However it didn't take long for the clouds to reappear and the rain to start to fall.  Nevertheless we raced, and we raced well and probably ate too much.  Ahhh, first Sunday.

It takes a good building in the first place to make a proper modification.

Thanks to Bryan and Sherry for hosting the opening round of the 2016 NASTE season.  A good crowd of 20 racers.  I know I had a great time but those cars seem to be getting smaller every year.

And congratulations to Victoria on her victory in the novice class.

Sounds great but no time this weekend.  Plus I prefer to go when Alan is in the shop.  Sounds like he's had a trip to the hospital and not quite back to the shop yet.

Very cool.  What are you going to whittle the body out of?

It was a spectacular crowd of 23 racers that braved the expected day of stifling weather.  As it turns out, it wasn't all that horrible.  And with all the food that kept coming through the door there was a-plenty to eat.  In fact there among the throng was our old pal George Vriese with his sons Sean and Alex.  It's great to see old friends again.

Here are the results of the first set.

NINCO Race:

1.  John Fisher - 46.3 laps
2.  Rico Locati - 45.9
3.  Jeff Fields - 44.5
4.  George Vriese - 43.5
5.  Monte Saager - 43.3
6.  Goose  - 42.6
7.  Greg Petrolati - 41.5
8.  Sean Vriese - 41.3
9.  Bill Bostic - 41.2
10. Tracy Flood - 41.0
11. Todd Flood - 40.2
12. Dennis Hart - 39.9
13. Al Christenson - 39.2
13. Amy Fields - 39.2

20. Mitch Brooks - 34.7
21. Thomas Flood - 33.3
22. Evil Jimmy Jones - 32.4
23. Alex Vriese - 31.1

Ok, who's up for a practice session in Tacoma and when?  November will be here sooner than we like.  Time to get organizing.

The idea is to get some practice time on the actual tracks as well as develop our experience with the BRM cars scheduled for the next 24 hour enduro. 

The cars of choice will be the BRM Ferrari 512 and Porsche 917.  Currently only the Ferrari 512 is available in a correct version since the 917 will be getting a new chassis and who knows what else.

Interested?  Let's talk about it.

Probably a good idea to not position yourself anywhere past the start line.

It sounds like fun.  Painful fun...  We'll be out of town that day but will look forward to the report.  Perhaps next year.

We had a great time too.  Always fun to get our and run the little cars.  Thanks Bill.

Some of us can make a fast car slow just by our driving.  roll
