Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

I just want to take the time to thank Bill for my "Season in the Toilet" trophy. It means a lot to me that you took the time and effort make said trophy and it is proudly displayed in my display cabinet.  It's these kind of things that make the NASTE group so great.

Thanks again
Rico

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

You're welcome Rico! The "Season In The Toilet" award was a combined member effort. I can't take credit for the trophy itself as Bryan Trachsel is responsible for the design and build. My part was knowing what the suitable application and reward was for said trophy. In this case I think it was 100% on the mark! I really wish you could have made the Shoot Out! You had earned your spot with a great run in the 2016 NASTE Point Series Championship!

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread

I guess I owe Mr. Trachsel a thank you as well.  Thank you Bryan, much appreciated.

Odd Thursday Night racing on July 7th, 2016 -

We welcomed three generations of Morgans to our race at TooBad Motorplex, Robert, David, Seth, Sammy, and Robert. We hope you guys and a good time and we hope to see you at another race soon!

The first race of the evening was for the Can Am/USRRC Class where Monte Saager took the win with his Slot.it Alfa 33/3. Monte edged out Rico Locati by just 1/10th of a lap. The next starting grid consisted of Trans Am cars. In this class Rico Locati pushed his Scalextric '69 Camaro to the win, just 3/10ths of a lap ahead of Greg Petrolati. For the last race of the night BRM Group C cars were placed on the track track. Rico Locati again just edged out Greg Petrolati for the win. We used a "track call" format for the BRM race which made for some very exciting racing! A big thanks to all that made it out to race!
