Scheduling can be a challenging thing to navigate with this many tracks to race at, I am planning a track owners meeting sometime in June. I am waiting until Bill Bostic gets home. I will send out an email or text as soon as I can after I talk to Bill. It will be all 4 of us track owners to prevent scheduling races at the same time. I know you don't care about the OSCAR races, but those can impact the schedule too. Bob Hanna is has scheduled a special OSCAR race on September 27th at Sparetime Raceway in Roseburg. Looking forward to getting together and getting the schedule worked out.

It was a warm spring night for the PASER Monday race at Rob's Redline Raceway. A total of 8 racers spread out over 3 classes of cars provided a fun night of close racing. As racers get accustomed to Rob's tight but very fast track layout, the list has started to grow of contenders for the win. The lap totals are getting tighter and tighter together. There was some great side by side racing tonight. Thanks Rob for providing the venue, developing new friendships and providing great pizza and most importantly.......a fun time. First up were the increasingly fun and competitive Womps, followed the the blazing fast 4 inch Flexi's and the night completed with the Open Production class. 3 PASER Weener Winner points were up for grabs. Bob N. won the Womp and 4 inch Flexi races and Mike Guthrie led the way in the open production race.

I get it about getting your season done by the end of May, I question scheduling 4 races with 2 Saturdays in May. That does not leave much for the rest of us to schedule anything without completely overloading the calendar. Just my 2 cents.

The OSCAR Sportscars returned to Springwater Raceway for the first time since November 2022.
19 racers came from not only the Portland / Vancouver vicinity, bur also from Bend, OR, Roseburg, OR and Seatle WA. Bob Hanna, owner of Sparetime Raceway in Roseburg, OR made the trek to participate and renew some old friendships. Kirk Smith, a local legend, provided his tech savvy and performed the duties of tech inspector and co-race director. It takes a team of people to pull a race with off with the nuances and challenges of utilizing all 8 lanes of Springwater Raceway. This was the first attempt to race on all 8 lanes since the track opened in 2019. With 19 racers, the group is divided into the “A” main and “B” main.
Qualifying, a 1-minute session with the fastest lap recorded for each racer determined which main event the racer would participate in. The race director would split the field in half. The starting position for each racer is chosen from the fastest time to the slowest time in each group. 10 racers would compete in the “B” main, and the winner would have to opportunity to move up the “A” main. The “A” main would consist of 10 racers competing for the overall win. The race consisted of 2 rounds of racing for each racer in both the “A” and “B” mains.
Each racer would have 64 minutes of drive time, except for the “B” main winner. That racer would have 128 minutes of drive time. Bob Hanna, who won the “B” main, moved up to the “A” main. The Stig, Aka Michael Mitchell, was awarded the “B” main win. Both mains had close racing, bad crashes, cars flying off the track and broker racecars, then…….the power went out during the “B” main and everything came to a screeching halt and a dark, dead race program. What to do? Eat……. The group moved from the dark racetrack to a dining area with windows and we all ate lunch. The power came back on just as we were finishing lunch. Back to racing!!!!! Except, the prior unfinished race was lost. Every effort was made to bring it back. Nothing worked. It was decided to run 1 round to determine the “B” main winner. The “A” main went off as planned and the race was completed by 5pm. Plaques were awarded for 1st through 4th in each of the mains, fast qualifier, and racer’s choice.
The hard luck, to bad for you, bummer award was a choice of rear tires for having such misfortune and trials.
The results:
Fast qualifier: Tom Street – 5.309
“B” main winner: Bob Hanna 321.2 laps
“A” main winner: NakNak, Bob N. 659.9 laps
Racer’s Choice: Bob N. – White Enzo Ferrari
Hard Luck award: Bill Henry.

The PASER Monday at Rob's Redline Raceway saw a hearty group of 6 racers come to hone their skills and have an evening of pizza, fun and some great racing. I had trouble with Race Coordinator to set up a 3 racer rotation and reverted to Trackmate and got the show on the road. First up: Womps. This class is helping racers hone their craft because the cars can be very unforgiving. Driver control and patience rule.......? The Flexi class saw a well prepared track surface and these cars were FAST! The results are showing the competition is getting closer and closer each race. Thanks Rob for hosting and the Pizza! Bob N. came away with wins in both classes and added 2 hash marks to the Weener Winner Cup.

What a day for racing 4 Inch Flexi cars at The Gorge Raceway. Thank you for coming out and supporting our local club tracks. Without you, we would not and could not have 1/24 scale racing here in the Portland / Vancouver area. 9 racers came to test their skills and have snacks, pizza, refreshments and most important, a fun time. Gerry had to leave early and Jim, who came to observe, stepped up and ran the 3rd round with his own Flexi car and did a great job.. Thanks Jim. Looking forward to having you race with the group again. As always, The Gorge Raceway presents it's own set of challenges. Many of these racers are getting faster and faster, so the competition gets closer and closer. The race program consisted of 3 rounds of racing with 3.5 minute heats. Each racer had 42 minutes of driving time. Plaques were awarded for places 1-3.
The final Results show who's climbing up the finishing order, you know who you are, and either made the podium, or right on the brink.

PASER's Outlaw Sportsman class is a place for racers to be creative and innovative within a limited set of parameters, to achieve a goal of seeing ideas become reality. That is the foundation of the PASER club's commitment to scratch built chassis. Saturday, October 12th saw 10 racers come to put their ideas to the test. One racer had his chassis break during practice, but stayed to help corner marshal and spend time with the group. The sharing of ideas and helping each other tune their cars and offer driving tips is showing up with racers getting better and better tackling The Gorge Raceway. Thank you to everyone who came to race and support local club racing.

Topic: First PASER Monday (2 replies, posted in Gorge Raceway)
The first PASER Monday event took place 9/23/2024. The day was divided into 2 sessions. The first session had 5 racers competing in 2 races. Womps and 4" Flexi's. The format had 2 racers go head to head with 3 corner marshals. The tight and twisty Gorge Raceway always tests one's skillset while getting back into a groove after a summer off. The evening session did not have enough racers to put a race on, but valuable practice time was taken advantage of. The final results:
Womps.

Re: Columbia Gorge Championship. (43 replies, posted in Northwest True Scale Racers)
The 5th and final leg of the 2024 Porsche 962 Challenge series was contested at Springwater Raceway on June 22nd, 2024. A hearty group of 9 racers came to tackle the high-speed, 8 lane Ogilvie Grandstand for the final race of the season. Summer's here and so is the heat....A huge thank you to Dennis and Craig who drove down from Seattle, WA to run with the group. Springwater always provides the full gamut of twists and turns in luck, skill and some great side by side competition. Due to the heat of the day and computer issues, the race program was shortened to 3 rounds with 3.5 minute heats. That proved to be a wise move. By the end of the day......it was a perfect time to complete the event and allow the Seattle bunch to get an early start home. Besides, we were all tuckered out! Another great season is in the books. Thanks again for all your support of local club racing. Looking forward to the 2025 racing season. The final results:

Re: Columbia Gorge Championship. (43 replies, posted in Northwest True Scale Racers)
Race #4 at The Gorge Raceway was interesting to say the least. Creativity was the word of the day. Question: Can 5 racers compete in a 4 round, with 4 minute heats, and constitute a complete race program? Answer: YES! The format consisted of 2 racers, contesting in side by side competition, with lanes being switched after each round. Some great battles occurred during each round, and with only 2 racers at a time, the corner marshals had time to take a breath. Every racer did a great job with car control and crashes were few and far between. Thank you to all who attended. The current point standings will be posted later. The final results:

4 inch Flexi cars invaded The Gorge Raceway for another evening of door to door racing. 8 racers competed in 2 races, for 2 weener winner points. 4 minute heats kept the racers busy passing, crashing and dueling for position in the pursuit of that coveted weener point. Turing John and Racerbob each added a hash mark on the trophy with a win. Thank you to everyone for coming out to race and continue to support local club racing. Here are the final results:

The PASER Outlaw Sportsman cars invaded The Gorge Raceway on a cool Thursday evening. After a pre-race meal at Shari's,
a total of 8 racers came to battle with a unique format. Any hardbody from our different Sportsman classes along with any body that would fit a class chassis, raced 2 complete races to score 2 Weener Winner points. Turing John and Racerbob came away with race wins and each racer added a hash mark on the winners trophy. Bad Billy won the Turn Marshall award and walked away with a cash prize. Following the races, a PASER group meeting was held to continue the re-organization process. A fun time was had by all.
