Kalamazoo vs. The World; Partake in Weekly Racing at My Track.
Sounds great
Has anyone else mailed into these races? Also, did FOTF/SDR arrive?
Yep, came in the mail yesterday. Clever packaging btw. Will have photos tomorrow and I will post videos on Thursday night.
Yep got your email. Pretty easy repack given the way it was done, nice job.
After re watching the race video we made an error in the first round, see if you can catch it. I am not sure it would have made a difference. I had some problems with my camera during the first buy back race so I don't have video of the eairly rounds in that one. I will upload the rest tommrow night.

Race 1 round 2
Race 1 late rounds and final
- Cool, thanks! For some reason, I'm only seeing the same picture under the first two links, and nothing else. — FOTF
- Looks like I can see them on my phone, actually. — FOTF
- Yep, I got to see them; good videos! Congrats to whoever won the first race--looking forward to seeing the others! — FOTF
- Marc (Dilligaf) won the first race with the 57. — undercoverbuick
I cannot salvage the video for the first round "buy back" for the first race. FOTF won with the all purple Challenger. More photos and video of race 2 tonight.
There are other photos on my google drive of each team.
- Don't worry about it; but what does that mean? That the WL Challenger was the fastest out of those that lost in the first round? — FOTF
- Meaning that it came back to race the overall winner (and then lost)? — FOTF
- All of the cars that lost first round run their own race and it won. — undercoverbuick
- That is how we always drag raced slot cars and we continued with the same format — undercoverbuick
- Okay, I see what you mean--to some extent, at least. So was that the second of the four winners from that race? — FOTF
- I finally get the formatting of this event ... HALF of our cars raced last night, and the second half will race next week. — FOTF
- If I find a car is a slouch I will run the faster cars of yours again. The Camaros are a bit too narrow for the this newer style track. — undercoverbuick
- I am going ot swtch back to the older style in a few months. The track connector is no good. I also have JL cars that dont work. — undercoverbuick

- First round video of the second race was no good. I will have a new SD card next week — undercoverbuick
Here are our 4 winners so far:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bws6xJqKX81BQWplVWpmUG5vQjg/view?usp=sharing
Marc Dilligaf (our official starter) won with the grey 57 in the first race, FTOF won the first round looser race with the purple challenger.
I won the second race with the beater truck and Marc Dilligaf won the first round looser race with Crate Racer
We will have 4 more winners join these cars next week to determine who was the fastest.
DARN! So close to beating that beater! I'll have you know that that truck of yours took out the LJLRC's 2015 AND 2016 Fastest Cars of the Year--the Challenger and the Daytona, respectively. Good job! What were the modifications to that truck (assuming there were any)? Glad we've secured one spot in the finals--though certainly not with our best car ... gotta get something else in there.
Good idea about going back to the older track--but some of those BWF Camaros would surprise you ... definitely run all four that haven't run yet, probably (assuming that four more from our team will be racing) along with the non-WL purple Challenger, the two Daytonas, and the Toronado. Unless I review the videos and decide otherwise in the meantime--in which case I'll let you know.
Thanks for the videos and the great racing action! Looking forward to seeing next week's!
- That truck has lots of expirmental things on it. I think I can actually build one faster. — undercoverbuick
- And your Daytona took out my Flat out 442 that has won every time its raced — undercoverbuick
Are there videos from this week's races?
My dad (known on here as Sinisterdog Racing) and I are sending some your way. We've included six each of our cars; please consider them all to be one team.
My cars include:
FOTF BWF Camaro
Fighting Chance Daytona
Mad Proper BWF Camaro
Advent BWF Camaro
White Lightning Challenger
Uncle Sam's Fifth Toronado
SDR's include:
Flag Day BWF Camaro
Ozzy the Challenger
Catholic Daytona
Monopoly Silverado #3
Other Grand Am
SDR BWF Camaro
I took a picture before I revised my team, but it gets basically the same point across (I just switched the Savage and Keychain Camaros out for the Mad Proper and Advent ones); I'll post it soon.
