Topic: Last Race of the 2026 Season!

Last night was the last race race of the season at Rob's Redline Raceway. Although we had a slim turn out, it seemed as though the racers that did make it had a very good time! Rob was out with a back issue that kept him from standing so he volunteered to turn marshal. That left us with four racers so we ran just three lanes of the track. At the Redline we can efficiently race three lanes with just two turn marshals.

Most everybody started off the evening with one of Rob's awesome hot dogs, a soda, and some practice on the track. The first cars to be gridded for the first race were the Production Class cars.

Since this class was implemented into the race program at The Redline, racers have been making modifications to the cars to improve their performance on the very fast Redline Raceway! The introduction of the NSR Hypercar has upped the ante a bit. At the conclusion of the Production Class race Hypercars finished one and two.

The fastest lap times also belonged to a Hypercar that was built and tuned by Mike G.

The next group of cars to hit the track were the Flexi Class cars. Since their introduction to the group, the JK cars have been the dominant force at Redline Raceway.

Although no records were set, the racing was extremely fast in the Flexi class! Mike G. set the pace and pushed through to the win.

The fastest laps belonged to Mike G. and Bill H. Nice racing guys!

Last up were the Midgets (I was told I couldn't call them "Midgets" anymore because it is an improper term.....Too Bad!....). The Midgets were gridded last, but they were not the least in terms fo excitement! There were some spectacular crashes (as usual for the Midgets). Speed is a realitve term in this class, as well as handling.....Surviving is something all the racers can relate to!

Mike G. again lead the way to the finish line, with Bill H. following closely behind in second.

Fast laps are also a relative term in the Midget class. Mike and Bill H. were also top of the heap there!
