GASSERS MORE GASSERS
Just finished the racing. The track was set up on the porch so with a few windows open it was very comfortable weather-wise. Track length was 16 feet, 44" high starting gate with a 5 ft drop at 45 degrees, into a 3 ft. transition that starts about 6" off the floor, and finally an 8 ft. straight.

Thanks for letting me and the LJLRC host the races this weekend. It's always a blast and it's great to see the cool cars everyone has built. I had members of the club vote for best looking Gasser on Saturday. I know who the winner is, but it will remain a surprise until after the final race.
Smitty, it's a little late, so I'll get the cars packed up tonight and get them in the mail on Tuesday. You should probably get them Thursday.
Congratulations JDC442!
great effort dadvbal, 2 races in 24 hours... super...
winner's congratulations 442,
get ready racers, it appears the big boys are back...
Great racing dadvball!!
I have one question about the results. In round 2B, 51 beats 87, but then 87 advances to round 3B.....is that correct?
Cliffordshaw, thanks for catching that. I won't know for sure until I get home to check my sheets. Don't know if I raced the wrong car or wrote down the wrong car #. If I screwed it up I will run them over from that point.
Can you tell I'm desperate for points??!!!
rally and dadvbal, I will re-run the passes in question before I run the Lewiston heet if needed...LMK...
Congratulations to Carl on his win!
