No, but Terry had the hots for him!

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

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

Thanks again Bill for a very enjoyable evening.  Looking forward to the next one and will bring my stash of secret magnets so I can beat Brian at his own game.

Good times!

Chris

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

Hey! Great night of racing for most of us! smile Sorry Monte.

Yes, Terry does have the hots for the second Monte of the night. Or is that the third Monte of the evening? tongue

Sorry it took me so long to get these in here. I did send them out via Facebook, but realize most of you aren't my friends on there, so best get them posted here too.

Great to see you again Chris!

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

Hmm... Sorry about that. That's the link I have in a note to myself. Let me go see if I can get the right link. smile

Okay. Try this link. LOL Photobucket changed recently and even though it said links wouldn't be broken, this link WAS broken. smile

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

Perfect, thanks!

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

Thursday April 11, 2013. 

What a fun night of racing. I had a great time!  Bryan Trachsel killed us all in BOTH classes! That was enough for the majority to rule in favor of a rule change to a handicap system for repeat winners (now you did it Bryan!).

Here's the results:

Classic Sports Car Class:

1st Bryan Trachsel 49 laps
2nd Chris Kouba 48
3rd Dorothy Abbott 48
4th Bill Bostic 47
5th Greg Petrilati 47
6th Tracy Flood 47
7th Bryan Dickerson 44
8th Terry Abbott 44
9th Monte Saager 43
10 Gary "Howie" Howard 43

GT Class:

1st Bryan Trachsel 53 laps
2nd Greg Petrolati 51
3rd Chris Kouba 51
4th Bryan Dickerson 50
5th Bill Bostic 50
6th Tracy Flood 49
7th Gary "Howie" Howard 48
8th Terry Abbott 47
9th Monte Saager 45
10th Dorothy Abbott 41

After the official racing was over, a few of us stuck around while Chris Kouba brought out some of his beautiful 1/24 cars. Chris was kind enough to allow us to get some laps with his cars (no we didn't break them all). Running Chris' 1/24 Porshe 962s & 956s three wide on TooBad was a BLAST!!!  Could this be a possibility for a NASTE IROC event here at TooBad Motorplex in the future?

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

Thanks for a great night of racing Bill. Congrats Bryan. Thanks to Diane for those brownies. Heard they were delicious.

Look what happens when I don't run a magnet car. LOL I'm last and by quite a few laps. smile

Here are the pictures. In the same folder, just dated 4-11-13. Video is still uploading, but should be done shortly.

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

Yes, thank Diane, the brownies were great!  Did I leave any behind?

Thanks for having us Bill, had a good time on the track too.  Well, when the cars ran.  LOL

It's always something...

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

You only left three Monte..............

I was looking for them Friday morning, but they were gone by the time I got up!!!!!

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

Relax and take comfort in the knowledge that there's never a good reason to not make more!

"Big Smooth"

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

I had a good time at the race, coffee and goodies, what more is there? Oh, the racing of course! I like the Odd Thursday's format.
Well hopefuly I will not have to borrow cars any more, (thanks to Bill and Monte who loaned me cars ) as I ordered a sports car and a GT car from Fantasy World yesterday. The GT car is a pre order so I really don't know when they will show up at my door.
I am having a heck of a time finding better tires. I can not get through the sign in process on E-bay, that is where I found some tires. So today I will look at other venders. Fantasy World was out of what I was interested in.
See ya.

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

May 9th & another Odd Thursday evening of racing.

Seven racers made it out tonight for some warm racing (warm in the garage, not on the track!). Bryan Trachsel took the top podium spot in both classes (yes again), despite being assessed a one lap handicap in each class! What do we have to do to beat this guy? Well for the next Odd Thursday race he will be assessed a two lap handicap if he chooses to race the same cars in their respective classes. Bryan says he will be back and up to the challenge!

The results:

Classic Sports Car Class:

1st Bryan Trachsel 46 laps (w/ -1 lap handicap)
2nd Monte Saager 46
3rd Tracy Flood 46
4th Bryan Dickerson 45
5th Terry Abbott 43
6th Dorothy Abbott 42
7th Bill Bostic 42

GT Class:

1st Bryan Trachsel 55 laps (w/ -1 lap handicap)
2nd Dorothy Abbott 51
3rd Bill Bostic 50
4th Tracy Flood 49
5th Bryan Dickerson 49
6th Terry Abbottt 47
7th Monte Saager 45

After the "official" racing was over we were visited by some of my neighbors. I think they were pretty sure something illegal was going on in the garage of that white house! We assured them we were on the up & up, and then got their kids dialed in for some racing action. So don't be surprised if we have some additional racers for the next Odd Thursday. I think the word may be out, and we may be running a kid's division. Thanks everyone, I had a great time!
