Just racin' them :)

Postby HomeRacingWorld » Sun Oct 28, 2012 6:50 pm

Having a ball here pulling out a lot of cars and trading paint.

Just tuned the Ford and we are "breaking it in" now.

Infield is filling up...still have more to go.

SCX NASCARS are up next. I know the paint is going to fly!

I like the dirt or asphalt type racers you have done. I need to build one just to say I did. I watched a lot of those kind of races when I was younger, and enjoyed the heck out of them. :) I still have the 55 Chevy I got from you at the DCS years ago. ;)

Must be rough being stranded there at HRW. I cant think of any place better to get stranded, between the food and the cars I am a little bit jealous.

Yeah, we're still here at the HRW headquarters...

The real reason we're still here is because when the airline found out how much weight Bob and I gained from the food here, they were afraid we'd make the plane overweight and couldn't get off the ground... :shock:

Trading paint on the oval has sure been a blast. Bob and I are amazed how well the Boss has these Mono Nascars and the Carrera cars running. We can run lap after lap, and they are just so smooth...until the inevitable "nerf" :clap:

Now that would be hard to explain at home... "Gee, they got this hurricane going on, and I didn't think I should come back for at least a week."

Nice banner on the wall, BTW.

Did Anthony learn them on the oval?
