Fred you can't tell me that I bet you on your home track. Top three cars seam to be very evenly matched

If you have any avise for the slower cars I am sure they would love it.

Thanks for hosting this race and hope you would like to next year

[Geno]

Yeah, I ran all the cars for just a few laps, just to make sure all were running OK, and that's all the time I needed to see your car was just a bit better handling than mine, my track has alot of big fast corners, and I think your longer wheelbase helped out there, I'm always surprised how well those MC12s run, as big as they are.

As far as the cars that didn't do so well, I would have to say the biggest issue is tire prep, as some were pretty loose, and had a bit of chatter, which usually means tires weren't glued,or glue job gave up, and/or not trued perfectly, with all stock motors, there wasn't much difference in speed, though some could use a little lower gear for better brakes, I'm sorry we just didn't think to write down any observations of each car though.

Looking forward to getting these cars on the one and only plastic surface of this race.

[Austin]

one and only plastic surface of this race.


I hope to find more plastic tracks for next year, the gold would be to have three wood tracks and three plastic tracks

I am thinking the black cars will do great at the next track

First, Fred, thank you for running the cars for this round. I am so excited, with one one race to go, I am looking at a clean sweep of last place! I know my tire tuning skills were my demise and I have been working to overcome that problem, so look out next year! But, I will be interested to see if preparing my car on a plastic track will make any difference in this last race. Austin, I will be happy to host a round next year with my painted Carrera track.
