Thanks for the congrats guys. It was the first time I ever won 2 events, the 4G was a surprise. That was a chassis I match raced Jeff a couple of time in unlimited 4G where he won both times. I changed the top plate for one with a mean green in it. The Inlines were running very well on my track setting a record for the class at .471 which is faster than a couple of the 2.5s I have. I will stay out of the veteran stock with those cars at my race. That race and classes will be announced soon. Enjoyed the race, all the racers put on a great show. Jeff great job and you will get some messages about how you did those videos, I really liked them. I am planning on getting a camera set up for the track so I can video all the races.

Dave The videos were done using a Samsung S8 Active set to slo mo 1/8 speed. Most of these new phones will do that....and a good job at it as well. I will do my best to explain what I did. It does not come easy to me though. I really had to practice and write everything down this time. Thanks for the good word. |

Bonehead mistakes..  I've DEFINITELY got some work to do to bring my cars up to everyone else's level! That's what I get for retiring I guess..lol!  As a famous actor once said..."I'll be back!" |

I want to go ahead and bring closure to the Texas Nationals so the focus can be turned to "Rewind on Woodward" coming in November. I need to award the Best in Show as well. Cars will be mailed out Thursday and Friday. This race kicked my a$$ and I had to chill for a couple of days before getting into the packing and shipping faze. Dividing up prizes, wrapping cars, taping boxes, labels, trip to the Post Office.......takes a LOT of time and is another big part of running a race. Future Racemasters keep that in mind. I am blown away at the turnout and the level of cars for this event! Thank you to all that participated. YOU are what makes these races. Good events are what bring new racers to the forum. To our Sponsors for this event.....
THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!

A little race trivia before I award the Best in Show. I have not had a chance to analyze all of the race data, but the track record coming into this event for Inline Stock 20v no timing was .6078et held by Dave632. The Top 3 Qualifiers in Inline Stock Rookie were all below that mark. The Top 5 Qualifiers in the Inline Stock Veteran were below that mark. The new record is now .5383et held by Dave632. Pretty awesome stuff right there!! Good job everybody on the level of cars that were sent to this race. Great job by all. A track record run was made in Four Gear Outlaw by Hairy Canary's Ace's Wild Willys but it was not backed up by +-1%. I think it would have been done if he made another run though. Congratulations on taking the #1 Spot with that run! Congrats to Dave632 for defending the #1 Spot in Pro Street Outlaw. Also want to acknowledge the Class Winners.

Dave632 / '55 Chevy Inline Stock Veteran
Dave632 / Wedge dragster 4 Gear Super Comp
Congratulations!!
Thank you again to everybody for making this such a good event. Thank you to all the International racers that sent cars. It takes an extra effort to do that and I appreciate it! |

Oh man!!! It's a cool honor to be picked amongst all those car entries... I would have guessed the Panty Raid, Big Dog, Pure Hell, among others, would have taken the prize... As JJ mentioned, that pink is a cool color under lights, has a pearl look to it. It's a Pure Ice fingernail polish called "Free Fall". I faded on some Duplicolor metallic red on the rear...
I gotta to work on some speed, my cars aren't getting it done!!! Again, congrats to all the winners plus all the guys who sent in a car to race!!! RM

A great weekend racing an looking forward to the next in Tennessee. Mazda I have one of those Fiat body's if you would like one. If your planning on sending some cars to Dave's race I can send it with my cars and Dave can send it back with your cars. It's a blem but would only need minor work to make it good. I don't have any roll cages, headers or the rear mount. I can send you what ever I have to go with it. Let me know ? Rick |
