  • From 52 to 16...Corvette Summer 2018 rolls on... — LeagueofSpeed
  • Nice! My 35th Vette doing better than I had hoped. Seems Lane 2 is the quick side...going make this a good battle. — redlinederby
  • Yeah, just a touch...pissing me off, but it's damn close...when the AC is on Lane 2 is a little quicker, when the heats on...Lane 1 is a little quicker. — LeagueofSpeed

Also, we're filming at 2/3rd's speed, so we're taking a 1/3 of the actual speed out...these Vettes are cooking down Tobacco Road.

We are going to start videoing the Sweet 16 at 9pm EST...stay tuned.

I'll be starting a seperate thread dedicated to the Points Race tomorrow or the next day...Thanks Again to the Diecast Community for getting in on this....the stuff that bounces around the Ole LoS Brain-Pan couldn't happen if you guys didn't want to race to begin with...and I don't lose sight of that my Brethren.

Great racing everyone! And a big thanks LOS for hosting and all the time and effort put in.  Me and the kiddos had a super fun time watching the races! It's going to be a lot of fun watching these corvettes on different tracks all over the country this summer!  The fun is only just beginning!


  • Thanks my Brother...the Legion knew the Crew would be tough...and you were just that...quality builds for sure. Congrats on your first win on Tobacco Road!!! — LeagueofSpeed
  • The gold gas monkey ones really surprised me. We were running short on time so I just had the kids fill them up with lead and clay and slapped them back together. Added some graphite and sent them off. They ended up running great! — Diecast64

Awesome! Great job, LoS and crew on running things and all the video highlights. You've set the bar high.

Congrats to 9.81 on the first leg win. I was surprised to see my Vette get to the semi-finals...pretty sure that's the furthest I've ever made it with a mod car.


  • Thanks Brother...we enjoyed it...and it technically is only 24+ minutes of racing...it's the editing that's the time eater. — LeagueofSpeed

Congrats to 9.81 on winning the first leg of the series!  Great job on the racing and videos. You guys have a knack for choosing awesome music as well. Lots of fast cars in this series.  I'm looking forward to the next stop and hoping to be more competitive. 


  • Thanks my Brother...we gave it our all and feel like it came together quite well...we are looking forward to the rest of the Series as well. — LeagueofSpeed

The Corvetts will ship out tomorrow 6/1 to FOTF in RI via 2-3 Day Priority Mail.
