3 WEEKS UNTIL DEADLINE!!!
You only have 3 more weeks to ship your entry. If I do not receive it by June 6th, it will NOT race.
The 2022 Muscle Car Masters competitors are starting to roll through the inspection station so you know it will be starting soon!
Hades from Karmic Racing in Pennsylvania, USA has checked-in and is the first driver to pass inspection! Hades is driving a red 1969 Dodger Charger 500. Karmic Racing is a new team to hit the Rim and veterans know that the '69 Charger will either raise you to Glory like last year's winner, Mopar Mac, or it will crush your dreams like a category 5 Kaiju. Which will it be for Karmic Racing?
Chet Appins from Rev Hobbies in Hawaii, USA has checked in and passed inspection for the Muscle Car Masters diecast racing tournament!
Chet is a newcomer to the Rim, and he is driving a blue 1960 Copo Camaro with a lion's head on the hood.
FUN FACT: When driving on the northeastern side of Oahu, you’ll be surprised to find a lion waiting at the edge of Kahana Valley. Look up toward the mountains, directly behind the Crouching Lion Inn, and you’ll see him. He’s lying down with his underside resting on the rocky landscape and his head raised toward the western skies. The lion goes by the name “Crouching Lion” and is actually a rock formation that closely resembles the animal.
Hawaiians believed that this particular rock formation on the Windward coast was Tahitian demigod Kupua, a relative of the Hawaiian volcano goddess Pele. He had been caught in the middle of a jealous feud between Pele and her sister, Hiiaka. Kupua eventually chose to side with Hiiaka, which upset Pele so much that she turned him to stone and cemented him to the ridge. To protect himself from Pele’s fiery wrath, Kupua instantly went into a crouching position; hence, the crouching rock formation.
Ra Sungod from Ra Sungod Racing in Colorado, USA has checked-in and passed inspection for the Muscle Car Masters diecast racing tournament!
Ra is driving a black and gold 1967 Pontiac Firebird. Now Ra is a veteran of the Rim but has yet to make it into the semi-finals. This just might be his chance to go all the way. Especially with his crew chief, Mia, calling out the danger spots as his spotter from the watch tower in turn one.
Willy Maykit from Willy Maykit Diecast in Indiana, USA has checked-in and passed inspection for the Muscle Car Masters diecast racing tournament!
Willy is driving a purple 1969 Chevy Camaro known as "Professor Plum." That's right! Professor Plum at the finish line with a Kebab and Kickapoo Joy Juice for the win! This is a strong runner for sure, and Willy is a veteran here at the Pacific Rim Speedway. But can he keep both hands on the wheel while eating a Kebab with Kenny's Special Radioactive Sauce?!
James Iron Beard from Iron Beard Customs in Texas, USA has checked-in and passed inspection for the Muscle Car Masters diecast racing tournament!
James will be driving the red and black 1968 Mercury Cougar. This is the second trip for Iron Beard after he entered the Ram Rod 400. That car wasn't fast enough, but we can tell that this Cougar has significant improvements over his last car. So, we're excited to see what he can do in this beast!
I checked the post box yesterday, and I'm still missing 20 cars.
Only 15 days until the deadline.
Freddy G from Tex-Tenn Racing in Tennessee, USA has checked-in and passed inspection for the Muscle Car Masters diecast racing tournament!
Freddy G is driving a mean green 1969 Pontiac Firebird known as Frogger. That is one sharp paint job. I truly hope that the Kaiju do not mistake his car for one of their babies. lol
Papa Pugsley from Man Child Motorsports in Iowa, USA has checked-in and passed inspection for the Muscle Car Masters diecast racing tournament!
Papa Pugsley is driving a... red... yup... it's another red and black 1968 Mercury Cougar. I think Papa Pugsley and James Iron Beard are trying to mess with me. Well, I have a solution for this! They are going to run in separate groups! But seriously though... Man Child Motorsports needs to be the flagship of diecast racing. Best team name that describes what we do here in the community!
Mr. Darq from Dubious-Diecast in Oklahoma, USA has checked-in and passed inspection for the Muscle Car Masters diecast racing tournament!
Mr. Darq is driving a black 1967 Ford Mustang GT. Mr. Darq is a long time veteran of the Rim, but the Rim hasn't been kind. Yet, Mr. Darq has learned from each of his runs at the Pacific Rim Speedway, and this pony is fast. And with Mrs. Nefarious spotting for him in the watch tower, nothing will stop Mr. Darq from reaching the finals.
As I receive entries, I post RECEIVED on the main roster on the first page.
