Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

It summer time and the race count been low all summer long. These odd Thursday  was no exception  with only 5 brave souls battling on the track. The race count may be low but the lap totals  have not. The racing been fierce  and you better bring you A game to the track. Up 1st was pge and it was tight battle for the win with Ricco   just getting the win Over doc by two tenths. I had two offs and that all it took with Ricco running 9 min mistake free.  Up next was sport car 2 and once again it was a fight for the win and it came down to the last heat and last two feet of the track to find out who the winner was. And after the totals  were added up Doc took the win by another two tenths over Al. After that race we Lost a few racers so it was practice and shoot the Bull time. We need to come up with some classes we want to run for the next up coming championship. Some thoughts were given. Some new classes were talked about. We should start a new thread on the matter.

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

Well we had a light turn out with only 4 die hands making  it out to race so Mitch wife was drafted  into corner Marshall  duty. Up 1st was the over 50 cars and Al took the win  with doc 2nd and then rico and Mitch. The 2nd class was lmp and Doc took the win followed  by Rico Al and Mitch. Last race of the night was open and  Al took the win with Ricco 2nd then doc and mitch..that was it for the. Night.  We discussed  what classes to run and it was decided with lack of input that all classes would be thrown in a hat and be drawn my Al granddaughter.

Doc, there are issues afoot. Several in our local slot community have come down with Covid. Chris and I seem to be over the worst of it, but others are still very sick. Those who were exposed but aren't sick may still become sick for up to 10 days after exposure.

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

To be or not to Be? Will we race or will we not that's the question. If you don't have anything  going these  Thursday  come on out and get some slot car racing 1/32 style in..

Dominic has a football game, so I will not be there

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

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

Well racing didn't happen just me and Al at the track so test and tune was in order. With crackers and smoke salmon  to nibble on as we tuned our cars to the razor edges..Let's all try again in two weeks. Hope to see some old faces  that haven't  been out in some times. Don't make me drive out and put hate signs in all of your yards. You all know who you are...

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

Even though  the turn out was light the racing was anything but light. Racing was very competitive  all  night long. Those that think these cars are not fast and are boring  need to come out and get a taste.  These are not your 1960 Era  1/32  toy slot cars...
