October 25, 2018 was the date for the first point series race of the 2019 season. Held at Rippin' Ridin' Raceway as part of the Odd Thursday Night Races it was a close and exciting race. But backing up a bit, the night of racing started out with a round of Classic Sports Car 1 class racing. The entries in this class seemed to be Ninco Jaguar XK120 heavy! At one point during the race there were three Jags on the track racing, occupying all three lanes of the track! Evidently the Jags are one of THE cars to race!

After the Classic Sports Cars were thoroughly thrashed driver's attentions were turned to entries for the point race. For this point race the Can Am Class cars were the designated tool. In this class the racing in the middle of the field was very close, but Al and Doc clearly had the field covered. Those guys were just plain FAST!

After the Can Am race the crowd cleared out some. The remaining racers brought out their Open Class cars for some really quick laps. The new Thunderslot cars are considered the best in this class, but Al showed everyone his Slot.it Porsche 962 set up with an inline motor could handle the competition.

It was a fun and exciting night of racing and for me it felt good to get back into the swing of things, especially visiting with all the racers. Thanks Al!

And there's the key to our annual Halloween race, making it around!!!!

I think we may have had heat races in the past where the entry that made it all the way around at least once, won!

Things are still pretty messy and unorganized in the shop, but I can see some of the floor and have a little bench room for a place to work and get some things accomplished. I have been able to get a couple cars together and attend the last two races at Rapid Raceway. As of now I have still been unable to locate the 1/32 cars I used for racing, so I picked up a couple new cars for the classes being raced in the first part of the NASTE point series. I am on schedule to make the first Odd Thursday point race as well as the NASTE Halloween race, so I am making some progress. I am looking forward to getting back into the racing. Now that things are a little more settled, I am trying to do a better job of reporting the races and getting photos for the NASTE website. Now if I could just find my slot car tools.............
