Maybe.........once you peel back that rubber like coating!
Now that you mentioned it, they did seem somewhat experienced!
Thanks guys!
Today I put the floor in the HO track's framework. Although not shown in the photo, the floor extends the full length of the lower part of the framework. I can store 12 crates under there.
It has been great to be working outside in the sun these last couple of days. But with the sun coming out I now have to get to the yard work. Which means since I am not finished with what I want to get done in the shop, I will have to work twice as long!.......Not sure how long I can maintain a 4 to 6 hour day!
I suppose they will be wherever the rabbits are, some sort of toy animal safe haven or refuge??

At this point I took a break from working on ICFR and moved my old HO track out into the sun.
She's not in too bad (pun intended) of shape considering she's hasn't been raced on in 12 years, went through a move, and a year of unconditioned storage. Today she got some work done on her frame. She is now on casters, and now lives under her mother track.
Here she is tucked nicely away.
Yesterday I finished up the paint work on Inslot's Checkered Flag. Today I finished up a few details. I was able to remove all but one of the original stickers from the old side board/ fences I replaced around the bank, opposite end curve, and down the back straight, and re-apply them to the new side boards in the same positions. I'm keeping the track as close to original as possible.
Inslot's Checkered Flag is now ready for testing!
Thanks for the info Zack!
That sounds like a good idea Mitch. I sent Alan at the Scale Auto Racing Center an email message asking for recommendations regarding tires. I have not heard back from him yet so i guess I'll just go ahead and order a couple different sets also.

Tracy puttin' on his race face!

See....he's not asleep!
The famous Vlasic pickle stand...
Terry just looks like he's asleep...Mitch is keeping an eye on him between heat races.
Zack is the up and coming fast guy!
Monte and Jeff yuckin' it up!
Evidently you can distinguish Hillsboro rocks by the pretty colors.....

It is always a fun time at Penguin Point Raceway in Hillsboro. Excellent racing, great friends, and really good pizza, along with terrific snacks! Thanks for all the racing today Monte! Tell Victoria we missed her!

Victoria's secrete.......NASTE penguins.....EVERYWHERE!
Actually I am known for bagging lead!
You guys are giving me WAY too much credit!
Zack, I love these "how to" articles! Done a few myself, of course I'm not known for my building or tuning skills! Please keep them coming! Someday when I get done with the new track and get the shop somewhat organized I will be back to buildin' cars!
Thanks for posting Zack!
After you finishing sanding on the pod in the motor area, does the motor still fit really tight, or does it allow for the motor to drop in more easily? Just trying to get an idea of how much material to remove.
Been rough on me too! Put in a couple hours on the creeper again yesterday. Didn't bother my back 40 years ago!
Side boards/fences - done.
Wiring - done.
Tomorrow I start the the final painting.
I replaced the side board around the top of the banked curve. I re-installed more of the original side boards at the bottom of the bank and down the bottom straight. I replaced a portion of the side board around the bottom of the bank with clear plexiglass to help improve the driver's sight line of the track.
I worked on the track's side boards and right side infield. New side board on the right side end curve, and finish off the build on the new infield. Getting close to more painting.
Every once in awhile someone will mention or ask about Art. Art Baethke was a a character that added to the experience of racing at BSCC. He was always interesting to talk to and fun to be around. I just heard from his son that Art passed away in 2016. RIP.
Boy, things definitely got ugly last night! Oops, my mistake. Actually I broke the axle mount, not the axle itself. Thankfully I have a lot less work ahead than Howie in the way of repairs!
