We have come to the end of another race. I want to thank once again all of the participants that made this event a success. The Open Class Bracket race is a great venue that can draw in a variety of slot car enthusiasts as we saw. New racers, veterans, veteran road racers new to drag racing.........it was great to see! Thank you guys for giving it a shot. Don't be too disappointed if you did not do well (my car went out in the first round). One thing I want to definitely say......there were many many good things said and positive comments posted during the whole event. That is so appreciated! It is very motivating because most of running a race is sitting in front of the computer. The racing goes very quick. For everyone that supported this race with sponsorship I say thank you again! Very very cool to have people step up without me saying a word! Thank you Eagle Racing for your help Friday and Saturday as well!
SPONSORS Nitroslots Angry Jeff Racing Kdog Racing Eagle Racing ncdragracer Clyde O Mite Ecbill
Keep an eye on the calendar throughout the year for updates and upcoming events. Next event will be in April at Smoky Mountain Dragway, Knoxville, Tennessee. The NTRA International will be sometime after that and another event later in the year at Bear Creek Dragway. As for this race........it is done. Prizes will be divided up and cars shipped out throughout the week. I will make every effort to have all cars out by Thursday at the very latest. Thank you again!!

Thanks again Jeff for putting on such a spectacular event! Thanks to all the Sponsors for helping to make this event spectacular! And Thanks to all the competitors who were spectacular! I really, really enjoyed it!
P.S. I certainly don't envy the three judges judging "Best In Show". Those were some mighty fine examples of Craftsmanship! WOW!

Thank You Jeff and guys for the good words. It's a huge honor to be picked best of show among all the beautiful cars entered. Thanks again to Jeff and crew and to all the sponsors for giving us a place to race. A little side note I'm leaving in the morning for Bakersfield Ca. For the March Meet. The Nostalgia Top Fuel car I've been driving is still parked but I got lucky and got a ride in a Nostalgia Funny Car. New car and new crew we are going to test Wednesday and Thursday and hopefully we will have something left for the weekend🙄😁

All cars shipped this morning at 9:30am. I try to have cars headed home by Wednesday of the following week, but was not able to get that done. Thank you for your patience. I will list the tracking numbers below. If you requested insurance it was applied. I also chose to apply extra to a few that did not request it. All have at least $50. International packages were mailed as well. I will list the Customs number, but I do not know if they can be tracked with that or not. Thanks yet again for everyone's participation and good words!
