Pictures will be posted on Monday for your enjoyment.
Congrats to the podiumites, Redlyner, Chris, and i believe our old friend Retro had 3rd place. These truly were amazing cars , the builds very intriguing and great detail on the bodies too. There really wasnt a bad car amongst them except for my bucket of bolts as far as looks goes. Vals was a treat to run, the body rocked and rolled just like a Chase Car bit handled very well once you got past the fright of seeing the roll it had lol?
As you know this track has a big long straight and some cars were fully out at 8 feet while others were using 18 feet to peak out going into the big sweeper. But what do you do with so many different tracks. Some lacked a bit of motor , others lacked grip and looked like ice racers but without the spikes.
I did learn that one fast lap dosent ,mean a thing in qually or even the race. Hpwever those that were consistent really shone. Old Shotgun has to get over the VW thing or lose some top weight , but what a beautiful build. I really did enjoy this and learned a lot from running the cars. Nothing is too small to pass by, especially gluing the tires on. Pics tomorrow lads.
Off to bed now
