Congrats to all the TQers. My Vega appears to be running very poorly, curious what's going on with it lol. Should be some great racing coming up!

Looks like it’s going to be quite a challenge keeping the index cars above the .9 index.
It was difficult getting any sort of consistency out of these cars this time around. You were right Dave the faster index, is going to shake things up s bit.
Looking forward to an exciting weekend of racing!
Congratulations to Jeff and Fin on your top qualifying runs.

Found a problem with Finistauris Dodge tire size in Super Stock so it had to be DQ'd. Sorry about that. New TQ in Super Stock is WBJ with his gold Vette. Congratulations Walter. WBJ TQ Super Stock

Sitting down to check everything out. It's been a busy week. Wow what a great looking group of cars! We have the best slot car builders right here. Looks like some fast cars as well. Congrats to WBJ on the Inline SS Top Qualifier. As for my TQ I am surprised but not sure how it's going to hold up. I think that car is going to break out again at some point. That is such a cool Class! It would also be cool to know the builds that everyone sent. I had a tough time finding cars that ran that number. They were either way too fast or the opposite. Looks like it's going to be another good race. Thanks Dave for running it!

Agreed, it would be cool to know what builds are represented in these classes. Don’t mind sharing mine: Both Index cars are Super IIIs. Both are completely stock. Orange is a 1st Lap version (gray chassis). Swapped silver tires for black off of another Super III. Had to glue fronts on, since they kept slipping off the chrome rims. SSs are BSRT and Microscalextrics.

Second Semi, ECBill vs JJWallace, JJ is running strong with another time just .009 off the dial moving on to the final.

.90 Index FINAL: Carla60 vs JJWallace final. JJ is the favorite with times just under the dial but racing can be crazy and this does not disappoint. Cars are started at the same time but it seems there was a slight hesitation on JJs Vette as Carla60 got a hole shot and went on to win with a close .007 as JJ slowed a little bit but still had the better ET, a hole shot win, and Carla60 ran another .93.
Congratulations to Carla60 and an Index win.
