Race cars are neither beautiful nor ugly. They become beautiful when they win.

This is shaping up to look like a big event! The word is there are quite a few out-of towners coming in for the race, as well as local racers!

There are also two opportunities for testing and tuning of your OSCAR NASCARs. The usual OSCAR practice the day before the big race, and for this race there is a PASER Even Thursday at Inslot's Checkered Flag Raceway in Vancouver where one of the classes we're racing is the OSCAR Late Model NASCAR Class. So that gives you Thursday the 14th, and Friday the 15th to get your car dialed in and ready!

I received this note from John Gill: "As a follow-up from the PASER meeting last Saturday, just wanted to add a couple things for any newer guys thinking about entering the upcoming OSCAR NASCAR race. At OSCAR races everyone does a one minute qualifying run. Your best time puts you in the top or bottom half of the field. Each half is run as a separate race. What this means is that you will be racing against guys that are of similar level to you. It makes for some very good races within the race. And, if you win the race, you have the option of transferring to the faster half. (Twice the racing time)."
