So I've been through the box twice and all the paper wrapping and I am missing cars: 67, 68, 89, & 90. Did I miss an update from one of the previous races?

That looks like the right setup.


I don't know if this is copying and pasting right at all--they're supposed to be pictures of the used bracket from last week and a blank one.


  • Apparently not. — FOTF
  • Well TE, you said you wanted a shot at the Javelin...1st round! — 72_Chevy_C10

Well if I go out in rnd 1 at least it will be to Delta6 Mustang not the Audi. Thanks for hosting D6 and Good Luck everybody.


  • Just have your truck fall over and crush your opponents next round! — FOTF

Just got back from Daniel's house.  Great racing.  D6 is packing up the cars right now and I think he'll post a photo of the top 2 cars .  

Today's winning car is one that I believe is new to the Circle for this event.  Sorry F.O.T.F. someone took that 300Z Laser down today!

1st & 2nd Place Finishers @ Delta6 Raceway: http://i489.photobucket.com/albums/rr253/danielcollick/IMAG1477_zpstrglka0g.jpg C-10's Javelin had Traction Event by about a bumper! Good news for everyone is the repairs on my Audi only held for the previous race, and the front axle has popped loose again. Here's how the brackets played out: http://i489.photobucket.com/albums/rr253/danielcollick/IMAG1478_zpse8ghewt_edit_1411950119447_zpstebxjtc3.jpg Bare with me on my lack of presentation. I'm planning on some renovations & & upgrades here at the Delta6 Raceway. I'll get the cars out tomorrow, also adding more to the prize pot, and if no one minds I'd like to repair my R8.


  • I've got no problem with you fixing your axle :) just my 2 cents — 72_Chevy_C10
  • Fixed the R8 Sunday night. good to go! — delta6

Whoa, that's a nice surprise! My cars definitely like your track, Delta!

Thanks for hosting!


Chris


P.S. I should really give TE a hard time, since he said he wanted a shot at my Javelin...but, he'll probably just kick my butt next weekend anyway!


  • A Humble champ...this I like...ha ha... — Traction-Event
  • He got not one, but two shots at it! That's two round winners 72CC personally beat. — FOTF

Well looks like I should be careful what I wish for... I got my shot...and fell short, CONGRATS!!!!

Nightstalker and FOTF in the final 4 this week...nice work. The Laser wheel is proving to be consistent.

Looks like a final round showdown in Oregon, with everyone trailing FOTF by at least 1 point. Looks like at least 4 cars have a shot at the title

 

 

Points!!! please check my math and let me know if I made any errors.

1 point for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd round wins

2 points for Semi-Final round win

3 points for Final Round win

Congrats Chris on taking the win!  Nice job!  And congrats to TE on finishing 2nd and to Nightstalker and FOTF for rounding out the top four. Looks like a battle to the end. 


  • i count 4 different winners in 4 heets...cool. — model40fan
  • Thanks...yeah, I'm looking forward to next weekend...one series ending and another starting! — 72_Chevy_C10
  • I like how close the top four racers are in points. Going to keep my eye on this one. — JDC442
  • Glad Stawka's Challenger is back and shape (though I don't know why it had to take it out on my Ford!). — FOTF

Thanks for hosting, Delta!  Glad the cars made it there--BUT PLEASE DON'T FIX THE AUDI!!!  Ha-ha-ha!  Hope it's back up to par in Oregon.  By the way--what type of track do you race on in WA?

Great job on your win, 72 Chevy!  Nice job taking out the LWs with some FTEs!  Along with...whatever wheels those are TE has, ha-ha-ha.  Along with everything else.  Your cars were born for that track!  See you in Oregon (where I've got to stay on my toes--that Nissan's sometimes not as consistent as it seems here!).


  • Thanks FOTF! Next weekend should be a fun one to watch! — 72_Chevy_C10
  • Currently using black seemless 24' made by Protect-O-Pak. Switching to Drag Tracks soon. — delta6
  • no, no...don't switch! :) — 72_Chevy_C10
  • i like the seemless, but dragtracks has built in start gate & finish line. i have very little spare time & no space for a permanent set up. — delta6
  • Cool--never heard of that. Dragtracks are a pretty good system, though (as long as the pins drop properly). — FOTF
