Re: GT class change to Sports Car Era classes (9 replies, posted in NASTE)
I made a couple edits in the rules pertaining to the GT Class, and that it has been superseded by the Sportscar Era Classes. Under Class 2 - GT you will be directed to refer to classes 15 through 17 for the current rules. I hope this will provide some clarification.

Thank you to Paul Kassens (Old Weird Herald) for these great photos and information:
"2004 InSlot Raceway / Checkered Flag OSCAR Club Track - Portland Oregon. A visit during 2004 USRA Div 2 Nats week at Raceway USA. Track owner Kirk Smith, "Bad Bob" McFarland, & local hotshot James Laconto, all from Portland. Paul Kassens & Craig Rieland from Seattle, with visitors Paul Sterret and the late Monty "Big O" Ohren up from SoCal... all took some hot laps with 1/24 Hard Body cars on the custom built 4 lane club track."
The track was originally built and located at Kirk Smith's house in Milwaukie Oregon.



This is the original configuration of the curves leading onto the main straight.

I used to feel that way about the original unpainted cars, being concerned about "collector" value. But I have finally come to realize pretty much ANY old car is available on Ebay at some point in perfect original condition! So what the hell....paint the thing!
