I'll most likely stop at Winco and pick-up their chicken dinner special and of course a bag of RedVines.

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

Re: Halloween Race Pot Luck Dinner - Sat. Oct. 25th, 2014

Great job Bill. Thanks for getting this started and for the email you sent out.

Thanks Bryan for the hotdogs and Rico for the chicken.

I'll be bringing cookies and candy and if I have enough time, some kind of finger food too. Working on a batch of regular rum balls also and hoping to have them at the race.

Re: Halloween Race Pot Luck Dinner - Sat. Oct. 25th, 2014

Ohhhhhhhh, things are looking good for another outrageous NASTE Halloween race!!!!!

Re: Halloween Race Pot Luck Dinner - Sat. Oct. 25th, 2014

We'll bring something.  I'll leave that to Victoria.  Any requests?

Mmmmmm; a big nice thick juicy steak comes to mind!

Re: Halloween Race Pot Luck Dinner - Sat. Oct. 25th, 2014

Now you're talkin'!  I'll bring a steak knife!!!

Re: Halloween Race Pot Luck Dinner - Sat. Oct. 25th, 2014

I'll bring the steak sauce.  Howie, you should have been at Ribs'n'Racing.

Re: Halloween Race Pot Luck Dinner - Sat. Oct. 25th, 2014

Should I bring chips and soda?
If so, any requests?

Looks like it'll just be Todd and I this year. Russ and Thomas have a school dance to go to. roll

Also, will homemade silicon tires work on Howie's track?

If the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.

Re: Halloween Race Pot Luck Dinner - Sat. Oct. 25th, 2014

Oh, they'll work but I'd guess it's just a question of how well.

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

Re: Halloween Race Pot Luck Dinner - Sat. Oct. 25th, 2014

Hey, it's the Halloween Race..............how well do they need to work??????

Re: Halloween Race Pot Luck Dinner - Sat. Oct. 25th, 2014

I'm just trying to avoid buying new foam tires and thought I'd give it a try. Would it do better than semi-dry foam then?

Re: Halloween Race Pot Luck Dinner - Sat. Oct. 25th, 2014

I would run them Tracy. I think they will work fine. If anything you might get too much bite and they won't slide at all.

Anyway, that's been my experience with silicons on Howie's track. Mitch had some on his car and it hooked up pretty well.

Re: Halloween Race Pot Luck Dinner - Sat. Oct. 25th, 2014

Hey! Sounds like it's shaping up nicely. I just sent out an email reminding people about the race and giving them the link to this thread so they could see who is bringing what. smile

You are still bringing silverware and plates Bill?

Hot dog machine Bryan? Does that include the hot dogs and buns? tongue

Nice Rico. Looking forward to a chicken leg! smile

Ribs Monte? Did I read that right?!?! Ribs instead of steak? Wonderful! tongue Those were so good at the Ribs and Racing!

Thanks Tracy. We'll miss the terrible two, but glad to see you and Todd there. You know my view on chips. big_smile And really! Worrying about tires on a FUN, NO Point Counting Race?!? Run NO tires and see how that works. tongue

Terry said I was going to have to run a car that's already been run, but he made me a NEW one! How cool is that!!! Thanks honey!! smile

Okay. I'm done. Thanks everyone for what you are bringing! Looks like we're going to have a feast again this year!

Re: Halloween Race Pot Luck Dinner - Sat. Oct. 25th, 2014

YES, I've got the silverware/plasticware and paper plates!  ==========Bill

Re: Halloween Race Pot Luck Dinner - Sat. Oct. 25th, 2014

Well, you guys all know how my cars turn out. I'm just trying to be cheap and not by new tires that'll only get run one night; while still being able to climb the hill and not slide off the banked corner. roll

Ok, guess I'll bring a couple bags of chips unless there's something else needed. big_smile

Re: Halloween Race Pot Luck Dinner - Sat. Oct. 25th, 2014

That is a very good point!!! You need tires good enough to keep you up in the bank!!

I think your silicons will do the job!!!

Re: Halloween Race Pot Luck Dinner - Sat. Oct. 25th, 2014

yes hot dog machine... hot dogs, buns ketchup and mustard

Re: Halloween Race Pot Luck Dinner - Sat. Oct. 25th, 2014

Who could ask for anything more????

Thanks Bryan!!!!

Re: Halloween Race Pot Luck Dinner - Sat. Oct. 25th, 2014

Thanks Bryan!!
My sister is coming and bringing some ghoulish treats she says. smile
See you all in a couple of hours!

Re: Halloween Race Pot Luck Dinner - Sat. Oct. 25th, 2014

Yes, yes, yes!!!!

Re: Halloween Race Pot Luck Dinner - Sat. Oct. 25th, 2014

Thank you Howie for supplying the track for our Annual Halloween Race!! Fantastic time! Great food! Thanks to everyone who brought something to share! smile

Racing was fast and furious or slow and luxurious depending on which car you were racing. tongue So many wonderful designs. We sure do have some talented people in NASTE.

Here are the pictures from last night. http://s737.photobucket.com/user/SlotCa … een%202014

Will get the video up later. I think I'll leave out the one video Bill took of my below waist area. tongue You were trying to take a picture of the Hammer Two, but I had left my camera on video. When you found out, you set the camera down on the podium where I was racing and the camera was still on. It recorded some nice conversations, but was only filming my red pants, so really not usable. big_smile

Thanks again everyone for such a terrific night of food, fun and racing. Judging by the photos, it was a much more relaxed and fun evening compared to normal NASTE racing. smile

Re: Halloween Race Pot Luck Dinner - Sat. Oct. 25th, 2014

Great pictures Dorothy! The red pants video is the reason I am NOT the official photographer!!!

Re: Halloween Race Pot Luck Dinner - Sat. Oct. 25th, 2014

Another terrific NASTE Halloween Race!!!! Can't wait until next year!!!

This was a common expression worn by racers throughout the night:
