Topic: First Sunday - March 3rd

A day of crazy racing was endured by 10 hearty souls.  After the debacle of the NASTE night with the Off Road track, we resolved the issue and decided to leave the track up for the first Sunday event.  I think Crazy Racing about sums it up.

The food was pretty darned good as well.

For starters we ran a double elimination tournament.  The rules were devastatingly simple.  4 laps for each driver, two in each lane.  Once the first car crosses the finish line after two laps, both cars stop.  After re-positioning, the drivers switch lanes and once again it's a 2-lap race to the finish.  Since most of us can count to two lap counters were not required.

Top of the heap was Tracy followed by Dorothy "The-In-Your-Face-Disgrace-Hammer, Destroyer of men, women and small children" and Terry who's status at last rendering was still uncertain.

After that we ran a wild and wooly relay race won by the team of decided underdogs.  Three laps and swap drivers.  First team to have all 5 drivers finish wins.  And yes, my team won.  About time.  I'd like to thank my teammates for carrying me to victory.  I'd also like to thank Victoria for showing up just in the nick of time.

After the crazy racing concluded we removed the off-road track in record time and opened the Pen for practice laps.  While some took to the track others put on a Beatles concert "Rockband" style in the living room.

Was it "only 20 years ago today"?

A pleasant afternoon was had by all.

Re: First Sunday - March 3rd

HEY! Great racing this weekend. Thanks so much for hosting Monte. That off road track was fun to race on. Sorry I was such a disgruntled racer. tongue Destroyer of men. HAH! I certainly didn't win. That was Tracy, a woman beater. smile How does it feel beating a lovely lady Tracy??? Great soup Victoria. Glad you made it back in time to join the losing team for the day! Here are the pix and video. I did take 3 videos of the racing, but they were so short, I put all three together to make a minute and half video. I'm not great with the special effects, but I did manage to do a transition. The first 9 seconds of it are blurry, but it corrects itself after that.

I've been cleaning up my photobucket site so races will be in order better. There is this one and I'm not sure how to label it. Can anyone help me out with a track owner name? Thanks! smile
