Final points for the Columbia Championship Challenge is up for the 2022 season.
Have to do some kind of special race, there is plenty of time to think about it.
Coming up is the 20th. year anniversary of racing at Rapid Raceway. The first official race was held on Nov. 16, 2002. So in Nov. 2022 we will have a special race commemorating the 20 yrs. of active racing. Also Inslots Checkered Flag Raceway is going on it's 20 yrs. also as the tracks were built at the same time. We held a practice at each track, 1st. at Rapid and then traveled to Checkered Flag the same day.

Best news: Gearloose is back racing as strong as ever!

That is about 2 1/2 or so hrs. away. We have a couple guys who come down from the Seattle area for the big races. I would think that Sam's drive would be a lot more enjoyable with the scenery etc.
Welcome aboard the Northwest slot car world. I don't know where you live but there is a lot of tracks of different scales to race in our area. If you want to check out 1/24th. racing, there are 3 active tracks in the Portland and Vancouver area and 2 more soon to be on the schedule. I have a race this Sat. the 26th. ( Rapid Raceway ) if you want to check it out. Coffee and goodies are on the bench at all times! Doors open at 11:30am and racing starts at 1:00pm.
Points for the second race are up above.
Thanks Bill. This repair looks good in the picture, but in person it is not that good looking of a body repair, but after all it is a slot car going into battle again.
Repairing damage from a race at Springwater Raceway. 1st. picture is the damage, yes that is a hole!

2nd picture is screen on the underside with Shoe Goo holding it in place.

3rd. picture is topside showing the screen.

4th. picture is the Glazing putty added.

5th. picture is the results, good enough for a slot car. This car has been in racing for many yrs. and to buy a new 3 window '36 Ford is expensive if you can find one! No matter what the damage I will repair as best as I can.

Bill will add photos when he gets time. Thanks Bill.
For the area that the track is in if I owned it I would have to have to add the word "country" in the name somewhere. Should be interesting to see what he names it.
Bill; you got a lot of pictures of me with my hands in my pockets! Good thing that is not a picture for my resume! Dwayne has a co-worker that everyone calls "pockets" because that is where his hands are most of the time!
That is going to be a fun track once again. Has Ron put a new name on it yet?
Bill and I went up to help Rob bolt the track together yesterday and Bill did some wiring also. That is an awesome room and great views of the nice area.
