great turnout and a nice Fall day.
Thank you to Ed Shultz for helping set up Friday Night and Hank Galloway for renting the Blue Comets Motorcycle Club club house for us.
Joe (pony) Skylark donated some unpainted bodies for door prizes which actually got awarded to those who didn't place 1st or 2nd in any class. Thank You Skylark!
The new MaxxTraxx 1/64 scale ¼ mile track was smooth and clean ..(thank you alpink .. LOL )
the Track Mate DP3000 was used in DP2000 mode to include only RT, ET and MPH for this event. Additional sensors for the 60', 1/8 mile(660') and 1000' will be installed in time for next event.
It is always good to see our regular racers: Dave and Devin M, G$(Carter), Joe Loh, Darryl, Tony(dreadlocks), Jim P, Ed Shultz, Joe Skylark and Hank.
alpink had some fine prizes for winners and runner ups this event.
Doors opened at 8 sharp and Skylark was waiting right outside … LOL !
Testing, tuning and practice ran until 11 when we started qualifications.
We run each class straight through from qualifications until final elimination so that folks who have to leave early can compete in a few complete classes and this also allows any one arriving late to have complete classes to race in.
pics of the winners and their cars are taken immediately after the final for each class.
Without embarrassing anyone I want to say that a few guys with really fast cars were a little too fast on the tree in eliminations. Some sure bets for wins were, unfortunately, eliminated early or in the final. But, see, that is why we race the little cars. Anything can happen on race day.
I'll will announce a spring date as soon as one can be secured.
Some of our regulars were sadly missed for this event, but we all have things that sometimes take priority. Hope all can return in future.
Thank you to everyone who attended for helping make this a successful and fun event.

The winning times in I/s seem pretty fast considering last race cars were running .850-.890

Al,
What are you using for a power supply? The one in the pics looks similar to some I've seen on eBay.

Bill, I bought that on eBay. variable 30 volt ... variable 10 amp Thanks Al, what do you think of it performance? Which brand name is it? I hate to hit you with so many questions but buying things like this online is like "buying a pig in a poke". Knowing somebody who has purchased the product is a big help. Bill |

I just saw another rule infraction the winner in I/s pink tires supposed to be black and if it is a super g stock wheels black also. If I come to the race in April and that car is there I will call out on it because I showed up with Vincent wheels on my super g and was told run it today but the next time they have to be the stock black wheels. That is why they make rules to be followed.

In inline stock you can run any color silicone tires , don't have to be black, just stock wheels
. I had yellow and oranges on my cars. And if you didn't notice Al is gone from here, so who knows about any race.

At one time he did mention about black tires and both cars in question do not have stock wheels per chassis..
