I can probably fix you up Doc.

VERY nice Mitch!

I have "STUFF" set aside for some guys:
                                                         
Mitch - Cox La Cucaracha body.
Zack - 1/24 painted NASCAR Fusion body.
Rico -  Two 3D printed chassis (one for SRC Alfa 33TT12).
Monte - Three 3D printed chassis (Sloter Lola T280, Carrera Ferrari 365 P2, Spirit Ferrari 512M).
Guy - Fly Porsche 917 (Steve McQueen collector box).
Chris Kouba - Slot.it Ford GT40 (of course).
Bob Nak - Scalextric Trans Am parts.
Mark Abolofia - Pink Kar VW Bug, track spectator figures, track scenery trees.

I'm planning to be at Bob Nak's open practice at Springwater Raceway on Saturday June 6th. I will have this stuff with me if any of you have time to come by. I may bring some other "STUFF" along with me.

I'm not sure of the exact total, Bob Nakamura would know. When it was my turn to look there were probably still 20 or so available.

Thanks Dennis, I missed racing with you guys as well!

This virus thing, the social distancing, and self lockdown is a pretty sensitive subject here at my place. Diane does not bug me about it at all, but I know she has anxiety over it, and when I leave it makes her uncomfortable. She is so go about my slot car "habit" I don't feel like giving her any unneeded stress over my slot car activities. I figure there will be plenty of race time once this is all over. On the other hand being locked down has provided me with a lot more time for going through boxes of stuff in the shop. I really needed to clear up some space before I started into my track renovations. I am making good progress and once I'm done with the sorting and organizing I will be started on track updates.

Zack, I have a body. In fact I think I have a Fusion or a Chevy. Both bodies are used and have been painted. they are both ugly and need to be re-painted and spruced up a bit. But hey, they're CHEAP....Either one ZERO $ to you!

Lookin' good Mitch!

I think I can come up with loaner cars. Worst case scenario we have to share a couple cars, but with Zack and Chris in our pit area I'm sure we can keep them going the distance!!!

I'll see if I can get some firm dates.

That makes two of us so far Zack.

I received a phone call today from our friends in Bend. They are in the early stages of planning a three race tournament at Tom's World huge 1/24 three lane track. Each race will be for a specific class of hardboy cars, one sportscar, one NASCAR, and one Econo Car, all per OSCAR rules. Tom's track is very challenging, and very fast with a 180 degree banked turn at the end of an extremely long straight. The infield section features a bridge and some tight turns. The local hot shoes Tom and Curt will be racing with a 20 lap handicap to help even the field. The tentative date for the first race is middle of May, depending of course on current "lock down" status. They are hoping to get five racers from outside the normal OSCAR community. I would be willing to do the driving for one car pool. Anybody interested in making the trip?
