It was a super rowdy bunch that ventured forth today for NC-5 running at the Point. Thanks once again to Monte and Victoria for hosting another entertaining event and for some very good chicken noodle soup. I had fun and still had time for over half of the other Super event for the day.
Thanks again

Thank you Randy and Myrna for putting on the Enduro this afternoon, I had a great time racing and enjoying everyone's company. I ate so much, I had no need for dinner. This looks like it's going to be a very fun, competitive class and I like the new lay out.
Thanks again

Re: NASTE Race #5 - 2011 Season - Dude, where's my track? (4 replies, posted in NASTE)
Somewhere there has to be a track that can host. I could probably arrange to do two races at the Hills, that way I could enjoy the home Courtney advantage too :-)

Thanks to Jeff, Jake and Cathy for another fun filled Naste race with the jaunting jalopies. The hot dogs were top notch and the Hammer's goodies are always welcome. I'm pretty sure that was my best finish at Hemi Heights and you all are slipping or I'm getting used to the difficult, er challenging Naste Flyers.

Thanks for the update Monte. I braced my car tonight and to my eye it did help the handling and the lap times improved some too. I think I'm ready for Sunday.

A big 'ol Naste thank you Randy and Myrna for hosting Round 3 last night. What a great time and some super close racing with I'm sure a tie or two. The cars were challenging as was trying not to eat too much.
Thanks again

Re: Getting Started in Proxy Racing (5 replies, posted in Events)
Did you go to Slotcar Illustrated? If not, try here: http://www.slotcarillustrated.com/porta … hp?t=44831
Most people don't run a RTR, but a good choice to start with would be Ninco Classics like the Porsche 356, Jag XK-120 or Ferrari Testarossa.
I hope this helps.

Re: Getting Started in Proxy Racing (5 replies, posted in Events)
I would agree with Monte, the IPS would be a good start since this years is on the last round and a new one should get going after New Years. I did stumble across a new one getting started yesterday for Slot.it cars. It would be open cockpit, short wheelbase cars: Ferrari 312PB, Alfa 33/3, and Chaparral 2E. Here's a link for more info: http://www.slotcarillustrated.com/porta … ost449423.

Re: Which Car? (3 replies, posted in Events)
Actually the next Naste race is Nov 20 at Monte's, unfortunately I will be at a wedding and will miss it. You might find it easier to make one of his first Sunday events. They start at 1:00 and end around 4:00 leaving you more time for travelling before and after.

Regrettably I am going to have to miss the race this year as family obligations I cannot escape from have come up. Please feel free to have fun without me as I will be stuck with my brother-in-law, possibly the world's biggest tool.

What a hoot, thanks Jeff for another fine evening of entertainment. Now, what to create for Halloween, definitely something faster than the Batmobile. Hmmm, I do have that NSR 40K motor taking up space....
