The NASTE Forum → Rapid Raceway → Columbia Gorge Championship race.
The second race of the Columbia George Championship using the 962 Porsche was supposed to be raced today. However as expected with this virus scare we only had 6 racers show up: Ted, Gearloose, Scott, John, Bob and myself and Jeff Fields stopped by to check out the "action". We did have some fun dialing the cars in and getting some track time.
I will reschedule this 962 race when this virus thing is over.
I had a bit of a runny nose so I stayed home.
I am cancelling the third race of the series originally scheduled for April 18th here at Inslot's Checkered Flag Raceway. I will work with Howie and Bob to get this race rescheduled at a later date. Everybody stay safe and stay healthy!
Okay, My 962 is running well. I'll try to keep my hands off of it.
Yea Mitch, that is my intent. I know I improved it after the Springwater race, so leave it to collect dust 'till it is called into action again!
I am rescheduling the 962 race on June, 20, 2020.
The 2nd. race of the Columbia Gorge Championship will be at Rapid Raceway. Doors open at 11:00am. and racing to start at 1:30pm. $10.00 entry fee which will include Pizza and pop. Coffee and cookies as usual. Hope to see you all here.
I know the virus is not over, but I need to get this race on the books as summer ( if we don't get screwed out of one like we did last yr. ) may be too hot in the shop for racing.
Thanks Howie, I will be there!
Zack
Thanks to Howie for hosting today’s race, always a good time at Rapid Raceway. My car was too heavy to be truly competitive, but I am reasonably happy it lasted the entire event.
Regards
Rico
Yes, thank you Howie for another fun event!
You had a good run today Rico. Your car was working well and you were quite fast!

A very nice field of ten cars!
Bob Nakamura's entry.
Ted wasn't the only racer to have an off track experience, but he did get the furthest from the track!
Marty's Porsche 962 featured a light kit with headlights and tail lights.
Thanks to all who participated in the 962 Championship Series. I will double check all the lap and point totals and post the official
standings soon.
Racerbob
Very fun and close racing Bob, thanks for hosting.
That was an awesome race Bob! I really liked the new format racing the inside four lanes and then the outside four in the next round. That track is so much fun, even though the bank ate my car yet again!
Much thanks to Bob and Howie for hosting and organizing the series. I took some weight out of my car and lowered the body for yesterday’s race because I thought the extra weight was slowing me down after Howie’s race but I may need a gear ratio change after yesterday’s results. Thanks again for a fun series.
Rico
Gobs of fun racing down there as usual .... and loved the track layout and facility. Broke my long cycle of not being inside a church building ..... 
Much thanks, RacerBob!
What ever. Working Saturday really blows you know what. Haven't even looked at a slot controller since all these covid19 junk went down..... be nice when we can get back to racing the 1/32 cars again.....
