What commercial tracks?  They can't seem to stay open around here.  I think it may have something to do with the active club racing that we have available in the area.  I believe that the wing cars would fall under Group 7.  I've seen some of them run back when Raceway USA was open and they are wicked fast.

Fellow Slotheads-  I checked out Monte's digital system last night.  It definately adds some new elements to slot car racing.  You can now slam your oponents from behind as well as the standard "rub".  We also had a jumping/flying contest-not sure who one.....We both had some spectacular offs.  I found it to be a real challenge to get into the correct lane for pit stops and for passing.  I think I was pressing the lane change button too often or too late- I don't know.  Anyway it was fun.

As always I have to fit my slot car activities around Kelly's work schedule and the kids activities but if the schedule is clear I will try to be there.  If the time and budget allow I want to try and get some type of permanent track up at my house.  More than likely running 1/32 scale either in Scaley Sport or a routed track if I get really ambitious.

Looks like we missed a fun event

Monte- Is the SCX system similiar to the Scalextric system?  I tried the Scalextric Digital out once and you had a button on the controller that you pressed to change lanes. I was running by myself so I didn't get to experience two cars on the same lane.

I can't wait..............

Bill/Monte- I was excited because my wife was working the 5:00am to 2:00pm shift the day of the race and thought maybe I could make it down on the assumption the race was at the normal evening slot.  After reading this post I found out the race is at noon instead.  It would be nice if the calender was updated with times and locations for all the races that are known.  It goes without saying we will not be able to make it.

Thanks for listenin

I voted econo, but the EJ's kits would be ok by me, or something comparable.  On the forum in the link for the Tifosi class, there is a post about the D3 chassis.  These look interesting to me, but probably not too different from what I know of the current econo class, which is very little.  The Tifosi class looks like it would be fun, but I am unsure of the format to be used, can anyone shed some light?

Hers, but she is on the mend and only has a brace but still is on limited duty until she completes physical therapy.
