Bootleg Run - Southern Drift
Are you kidding me? WooHoo! As the races wound down I was hoping but the competition is so tough I didn't think it was possible.
Thanks for the awesome racing on a great track and congrats to all who participated!
So is it indy, f1, and rolex cars? If so let people enter 3 cars b/c ive got 1 fast one of each
That was a lot of fun and I thought the changes made a difference to the track. I never want to take the teeth out of Bootleg Run, but I wanted the racing cleaner than the first go round. I see a couple more things I'm going to tweak for the next race...overall I'm very pleased with the maturation of Bootleg Run.
Congrats to DVB, as that car was quick and agile from the first race to the Championship...and now Stock entries have taken the crown in the first two races held on Bootleg Run...once again...job well done DVB!!!
A special Shout-Out to my daughter...Speed Force Racing on another fantastic job on the videos and editing of the race...I couldn't do this at the level we do without you...and great job on your 3rd place finish!!!
I hope everyone enjoyed the race and I truly appreciate being trusted enough with your cars and the faith from the communiy that goes into hosting a race. Thanks so much!!!
Next up for Bootleg Run...Bootleg Run - Dixie Gran Prix. Date TBD in 2018.
Peace my Brethren - League of Speed
The rest of the Legion of Speed didn't like seeing the hand weights in the videos...so going to bolt Widow Maker and Soul Taker down next race...and it will look better. The curves can't be left without some type of restraint as the cars move them around while racing.

...so a washer, bolt and a nut just tight enough to hold them down and not damage vintage 1969 Redline High Banked Curves.
- You could use a fender washer and grind it so it doesn't interfere with the cars — 72_Chevy_C10
- Oh yeah, it won't interfer with the cars as the inside edge is dropped down in the open square — LeagueofSpeed
- ...and we missed ya on the track Brother!!! — LeagueofSpeed
- Thanks! I've been so busy, I haven't had a chance to even think about building cars....but soon! — 72_Chevy_C10

...I'm assuming TE is your Dad?
- we got it straightened out, and yes FT is my son — Traction-Event
- Good Deal...see ya on the Track!!! — LeagueofSpeed
My cars arrived safe & sound yesterday thank you. Love the mini trophy. It will be displayed with the car on my LJLRC trophy shelf.
And you said it was a stock entry that won last year, right?
As much as I enjoy trying to modify a car I usually can't make it much faster than the stock model. Mostly because I can't commit the time to really do it like others. So lately it's just finding something fast and adding graphite hoping to at least be competitive.
I'm excited to see #15 doing so well. Good luck to all in the Final 8!
