New Oval at Dug Out Speedway with Photos

Postby RazorJon » Mon Sep 16, 2013 9:52 am

So my buddy Dave tells me to be on the lookout for a box? I think ok he is sending me some of his new cars :clap:

Then a few days latter I am talking with Harry and he asks if I have gotten a box yet :idea: now I am thinking these guys are up to something.

jump ahead to Saturday, the dog starts barking and I see the mail truck in the drive, so I go out to meet her and she has 3 large boxes for me, 1 box was new motors for razors and the other 2 contained ShotgunDaves old plastic oval Revell set :banana-rock:

The Boss wants to help build a new table and help set up the track and driver stations, so sounds like fun to me.

Thanks Dave and Harry for such a nice gift, I will have a blast on it I am sure :dance:

You just never know :D I would of not guessed in a million years

Be careful with that old Revell/Riggens track. Its great, but its fragile after all these years (a lot of us are after all these years, too). Be especially careful if you take it apart. If it breaks, you are still okay, you just have to screw it down in alignment with the next piece, but that's a lot of bother.
