Re: OSCAR Race at Tom's World (12 replies, posted in OSCAR)
I had a great time overall at my first race at Tom's world.
I just qualified in to the A-main, after not being able to really throw down a good lap.
My first 5 heats went much better than expected, with a 29 lap average I was sitting 5th just behind the really fast guys.
Then on round 2 lane 2, I hook up my controller incorrectly for the second time ever and cause a hell of a smoke show. Bob N let me borrow his, but the new boards just don't feel the same and I couldn't adapt at the pace we were running without causing myself or others harm.
Bob N held his own for only have the morning to practice. His car was a little tight but he kept it in the slot for the most part.
Bill Bostic was FAST! But he had a few more problems keeping the car in the slot. I think with some more practice he will be a real contender.
I was happy with my pace for my first time at the track, just made a stupid mental error.....always next time.

Topic: Econo-chassis for sale. Late model sportsman body included. (0 replies, posted in For Sale or Trade)
Hey guys, I have a late model sportsman car to sell. I bought this at the beginning of the season and have since built a couple of my own. So I am hoping this finds a home with someone who will use it!
It is a very early car, and is .063" brass instead of .092" like the later cars. That said, it has been lead tuned all the way up to 231g and was the chassis i used to score a 3rd place overall finish in this class this year. It works well.
Just add rear tires, motor, and interior and you are set to jet.
$80 dollars w/body.

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread (2,047 replies, posted in NASTE)
It is what it is fellas. We race in other people homes, and it is important now more than ever to respect everyones comfort level with all that is going on.
I am sure Al would love to have a race night, but if he can't open his doors and have himself and his wife feeling safe in doing so. Then it is best to wait.
There are opportunities to race elsewhere, and this may be the prime time to build your own track and have some people over!

Topic: My first OSCAR NASCAR build, almost ready to go! (1 replies, posted in OSCAR)
I have been slowly getting this car together with the intent of testing it for the Dale Earnhart memorial race at Tom's coming up.
I drove one of the Stewarts cars at the team race a few months back, and it drove so well I decided to do one with a very similar design. I only changed a few little things because I used a different guide tongue.
The decals for this body were old and tough to deal with, but with some hot water I got them to work alright.
Last night in installed my new Tachometer Ted powerplant, and set some bearings. Anywho, here she is basically ready to test!

Re: The NASTE chassis! (49 replies, posted in Rapid Raceway)
Just so this remains updated here. I have nearly finished packaging all of the first 28 cars for delivery (I am purchasing 2).
As will all slot car kits, there may be some minor tuning up needed. I may add even more material to the H-plate next go around, but these are still a huge increase in strength over the original Scholer cars.
